Does anyone have a script that they use to run sysdiagnose from Self Service? Just having the command in a script, it requires you to press "enter", and gives an error in the logs stating:
Script result: Triggering sysdiagnose programmatically from CLI with incorrect arguments. Exiting.

Thanks, @AVmcclint! I created this script, expanding on that option:
#!/bin/sh
# Run SysDiagnose programatically and then reveal the file to the user
sysD=`sysdiagnose -u`
sysDFile=`echo $sysD | awk '{print $NF}' | awk '{ print substr( $0, 2 ) }' | awk '{ print substr( $0, 1, length($0)-2 ) }'`
open -R $sysDFile

try
sysdiagnose -u
man sysdiagnose says
-u Disable UI feedback
and that seems to work on my system.
