A runtime patcher to introduce extension points into the original ImageJ (1.x). This project offers extension points for use with ImageJ2 and it also offers limited support for headless operations.
There is a newer version: 1.2.7

/**
 * Limited headless support for ImageJ 1.x.
 * 
 * 
 * Headless operation means: does not require a graphical user interface
 * (GUI). Due to some limitations in Java on Linux and Unix, it is impossible to
 * instantiate GUI elements when there is no way to display them (i.e. when
 * there is no desktop environment) -- even if they are never to be displayed.
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * Therefore, even when running in batch mode, we have to prevent GUI elements
 * -- such as dialogs -- to be instantiated.
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * Unfortunately, ImageJ 1.x' macro handling works exclusively by instantiating
 * dialogs (but not displaying them). Macros are executed by overriding the
 * dialog methods to extract the user-specified values.
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * The limited legacy headless support overrides {@link ij.gui.GenericDialog} to
 * not be a subclass of {@link java.awt.Dialog}. This will always be a
 * fragile solution, especially with plugins trying to add additional GUI
 * elements to the dialog: when those GUI elements are instantiated, Java will
 * throw a {@link java.awt.HeadlessException}. Hence the legacy headless support
 * only works with standard (i.e. non-fancy) plugins; this could only be fixed
 * by overriding the plugin class loader with a version inspecting every plugin
 * class and using Javassist to override such instantiations. Given that
 * ImageJ2's architecture handles headless operation much more gracefully, that
 * enormous effort would have little to gain.
