Happens when plugin isn't activated when running it with CLI.
Running wp plugin activate plugin-check beforehand fixes it

[swissspidy]

This probably happens because of #974. The object cache drop-in wasn't properly deleted in your case, causing the wp plugin check command to be available even though the plugin isn't actually active. So solving #974 should fix this.

No, bc this error is from a different WP install that uses the default wp-content directory.

I see. Just to confirm, the object-cache drop-in was present on that site though, correct? Otherwise the command wouldn't be available. After deactivating the plugin, the command should no longer be available.

Yes, bc cli.php copied it in

[swissspidy]

Right. Curious why it wasn‘t cleaned up though 🤔
