    Flathub doesn’t accept CLI tools (unlike the Snap store)

    Regarding modifying Sandboxes, try Flatseal

      Other way around, accessing command line tools. As far as I know, there is no sandbox setting to allow access to execute commands directly on the host system.

        It can but is cumbersome.

        flatpak-spawn —host /bin/gedit

        Will run local gedit from a flatpak.
