While invoking the plugin (both from the UI and through vue invoke), with defaults kept as is, the Vue CLI crashes with the following stacktrace:

It’s a typescript syntax error, an easy workaround here: just comment declare section and installation works fine.

Having the same problem. In my case it’s line 41 though:
