Hmm. The man page says:

It looks like there's a bug in the parsing for the optional delta argument. It's intended that if you provide -s or --squat-skip without a delta value, then the default of 60 will be used. But for some reason I don't yet understand, it's failing when no delta is provided.
Our test case provides a delta of 0 (so that it can see results right away), but that means we're testing it with an explicit delta but not without one, and I guess we missed that it doesn't parse properly without one.
I think if you run "squatter -v -i -s60 -a" it should work correctly, and do the same thing that "squatter -v -i -s -a" is supposed to do.
I've opened a github issue about this so we can track the eventual fix, but in the meantime specifying the 60 explicitly (or whatever other value you like) should get you going. https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-imapd/issues/3496
Thanks for catching this, it's pretty subtle!
