have a look at scripts args ;

var main = function() {
  app.scriptArgs.setValue ("path", "/path/to/folder" );
  var scpt  = 'tell application "Adobe InDesign CC 2015"\
  tell script args\
  set v to get value name "path"\
  display dialog  v\
  end tell\
  end tell';
  app.doScript ( scpt, ScriptLanguage.applescriptLanguage );
}
main();
