Hi @vaibhav-shah, Could you please share minimal step to produce the issue with sample code?

http://google3/third_party/bazel/src/main/java/com/google/devtools/build/lib/remote/RemoteExecutionService.java;l=524;rcl=526500829 handles the extra info the WorkerKey, but doesn't update the args AFAICT.

@benjaminp Any thoughts on whether this is feasible?

[benjaminp]

There would have to be a remote protocol change to allow the extra worker flags to be passed to the executor.
