I wouldn't expect that to work 🤔

If it was --args.input.dir path/*, then the shell would expand that to path/* whatever is in path directory, e.g. path/product if product was the only directory in path. Then if path/subdir/bookmap.ditamap would be used as the input resource. But not sure if that would work either.

You could debug this by changing modifying https://github.com/dita-ot/dita-ot/blob/3.6.1/src/main/bin/dita#L179 to use echo instead of eval. Maybe that shows you what's being passed to the DITA process.
