    Description

      Puppet Version: 6.14.0
      Puppet Server Version: N/A
      OS Name/Version: CentOS 7.7

      When running `puppet parser validate path/to/bolt/plan.pp` it failed until i passed in `–tasks`, which was not present in the `–help` output of `puppet --help` or `puppet parser --help` or `puppet parser validate --help`.

      Desired Behavior:

      The `–tasks` parameter is shown when we pass in `--help`.

      Actual Behavior:

      $ puppet parser --help
      USAGE: puppet parser <action> Interact directly with the parser.OPTIONS:
        --render-as FORMAT             - The rendering format to use.

        --debug                        - Whether to log debug information.ACTIONS:
