Description

Hi, MMDS json might be large and also might contain secrets, which should not be visible in command line parameters. Please support loading mmds from file.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the CLI flag definitions to see how MMDS JSON is input. Add support for a file path flag that reads the MMDS JSON from a file, preventing secrets in command line arguments.
