This is partially correct. It depends on your distribution of PHP. For instance, Gentoo has a number of different PHP binaries (php-fpm, php-cgi and php-cli) which are all slightly different. The FPM/CGI versions of PHP are designed to work within the context of a web server where HTTP environment variables are set. The CLI version is obviously designed to be run from the command line (and hence the HTTP related functions, $_GET, $_POST, etc won't work). I'm not sure how far you will get with loading the MantisBT API from the command line. It may require us to make some changes to skip over HTTP-specific stuff when we detect that the core is being loaded in a CLI environment. You could of course just write a completely separate script in the programming/scripting language of your choice. At the end of the day you're only going to make a few database queries so it won't be too complex.
