Currently, the Topiary CLI will exit with code 1 on an unspecified error (i.e., one it doesn't/cannot handle explicitly). This discussion suggests that exit code 1 has a conventional meaning of:

things went well and I need to answer 'no' or 'false' in a clean way

The unspecified error code should change to something else.
