This post may answer your question:

> [@How should I pass arguments when running Slicer in batch mode?](https://discourse.slicer.org/t/how-should-i-pass-arguments-when-running-slicer-in-batch-mode/8217/2):
>
> Everything after --python-script until the next recognizable flag is passed into the python interpreter: Run: ./Slicer.exe --no-main-window --python-script test.py param1 param2 param3 Where test.py is: print(sys.argv) You will get this output on the console: ['test.py', 'param1', 'param2', 'param3']

Also not that if you don’t need to run the application (e.g., just run Python CLI modules) then you may be able to run Python scripts using `PythonSlicer` executable.
