Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by tracing Bazel's remote persistent worker handling for the worker_extra_flags setting and compare it with the local worker path. Reproduce the difference with a minimal remote-worker configuration, then verify that the supplied flags reach the remote worker while local behavior remains unchanged.
