+#### `--watch-file`, `--watch-files`
+
+A list of files that should be watched for changes. This is useful if you want web-ext to explicitly watch for changes to specific files, without watching the extension directory tree, e.g. the output of the build from a module bundler.
+
+```shell
+web-ext run --watch-file dist/background.js dist/content-script.js
+```
+
 #### `--watch-ignored`
 
 A list of paths and globs patterns that should not be watched for changes. This is useful if you want to explicitly prevent web-ext from watching part of the extension directory tree, e.g. the node_modules folder.
