With /bin/sh -c "script" syntax, anything after the -c argument becomes an argument to your script. You can reach them with $0 and $@ as part of your /bin/sh script:

ENTRYPOINT ["/bin/sh", "-c", "exec /usr/bin/mycmd --token=$MY_TOKEN $0 $@"]
CMD ["pull", "stuff"]

Note that you could also change your entrypoint to be a shell script added to your image that runs exec /usr/bin/mycmd --token=$MY_TOKEN "$@" and execute that shell script with docker's exec syntax:

ENTRYPOINT ["/entrypoint.sh"]
