I was surprised to find that structurizr --version produces an output with the version and then fails. It took me a moment to realize that there simply is no version command and that's why it fails.
I'd say it is a standard to have a dedicated way to query the version of a CLI. Therefore, I think it would be a good idea to add this small feature.
For some context: I'm using this as a very basic check if the CLI is correctly installed in a docker image that is built via a CI pipeline. For now I guess I will use the help command as a workaround. For reference, output from PlantUML:
