node app.js -b --test=> {b: true, test: true}
If you want apply false, use
node app.js -b=false --test="false"=> {b: false, test: false}
Note that the string with false value was converted to a boolean false, because this module convert primitive values.

node app.js -o '/Desktop/teste' --output="/Desktop/teste"=> {o: '/Desktop/teste', output: '/Desktop/teste'}
Convert primitive values
node app.js --port 8080 --numbers="2", --allow="false" --private="true"=> {port: 8080, numbers: 2, allow: false, private: true}

node app.js -rpqs=> {r: true, p: true, q: true, s: true}
Apply value with =, or space:
node app.js --output '/Desktop/test' --config="test"=> {output: '/Desktop/test', config: 'test'}
