Looks like there's a bug in --defaults, can you try the following?

npx shadcn@latest init --force --silent --yes --base-color neutral

@shadcn I tried fixing this bug at #7134. If there is something wrong with my approach please tell me.

@shadcn @vomaksh is right, npx shadcn@latest -d --base-color neutral works, the base color has no default as of yet
