Escaping a string when passing through multiple tools

I had to do this yesterday. First I tried ". Then \", finally \" worked. Which doesn’t make sense. But I’m not looking for answers, I’ve got more Jira tickets this sprint.

LOL even here it gets me . I tried slash quote, slash slash slash quote, finally slash slash quote worked.

I think I have seen a few CLI tools that put the input between an open and close arg like this “-arg1 random passthrough string -arg1-”

Now say the CLI tool is passed a string that has “-arg1-” inside it.
