Command line arguments that bazel will pass to the target when it is executed either by the run command or as a test. These arguments are passed before the ones that are specified on the bazel run or bazel test command line.

NOTE: The arguments are not passed when you run the target outside of bazel (for example, by manually executing the binary in bazel-bin/).

Most binary rules permit an args attribute, but where this attribute is not allowed, this fact is documented under the specific rule.
