How to configure execution arguments for mojo-lldb in VSCode

Is there a way to pass command-line parameters to the Mojo debugger, so that the following code prints out:
I'm looking for the launcher.json configuration that would be equivalent to:
$ mojo debug -D DEBUG ./debug_mode.mojo


So that I can get the code below:

debug_mode.mojo

from sys import is_defined

alias DEBUG = is_defined["DEBUG"]()

fn main() raises:
    @parameter
    if DEBUG: print("\nIn debug ...")

    print("\nDone.")


To print out the following, when I Start Debugging
text 
In debug ...

Done.



I believe this is the correct json block to edit, but I cannot find the correct parameters to configure.
    "configurations": [
        {
            "type": "mojo-lldb",
            "request": "launch",
            "name": "Mojo: Debug Current Mojo file",
            "description": "Launch and debug a Mojo file given its path.",
            "mojoFile": "${file}",
            "args": ["-D", "DEBUG"],
            "env": [],
            "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}",
            "runInTerminal": false
        },

as you can see I've tried setting "args": ["-D", "DEBUG"],, but that sets the command line arguments for debug_mode.mojo.

If this can only be done in another way, please can someone direct me to the path of enlightenment.
