Hi! Is it possible to use clojure -X:deps prep, but pass the deps to be prepped insted of looking for them from a deps.edn file?
(like how clojure -Sdeps "$DEPS" -M -m my.main-ns lets me pass $DEPS)

Some -X:deps tasks accept an :extra argument that let's you provide EDN for more deps? (on my phone else I'd check)

Thanks! On my phone too now, I'll try it when I can!

At my computer: confirmed prep accepts :extra plus a lot of other options https://github.com/clojure/tools.deps.cli/blob/main/src/main/clojure/clojure/tools/deps/cli/api.clj#L58-L78

Amazing! Thank you @seancorfield. 🙏 I read the http://clojure.org reference, but didn't think to dig deeper.
