Is there a way to quietly open Termux from another app?

[broken gorge]

I am developing an app in flutter and I want it to start up a nodejs server I've built in termux.

I've set everything up so that it works as expected with the RUN_COMMAND intent. However, I've noticed that I get an error running the intent if termux isn't running in the background.

I understand that this is an Android security issue, but I wanted to ask you guys there was anything I could do to elevate this issue? Right now I have an intent to open the termux app from my app, but it's pretty bad UX, so I was wondering if there was anything I could do on termux's side to make this better?

Any and all ideas would be welcome. Thanks!
