you could use Termux::API to get stats (battery percentage, notifications, calls, some other stuff) of your phone from your PC.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Termux is awesome! I use it for a bunch of things:
You could install YouTube revanced by running one command
curl -sL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/decipher3114/Revancify/main/install.sh" | bash
Compile llama.cpp, download a small GGML LLM model and you will have a quite intelligent assiatant running into your phone.
Definitely try running a full Linux distro with it, it's pretty fun and a self-rewarding task, even if you don't end up actually doing anything with it. But you may still find it useful in some ways, for instance, you could run a full fledged desktop Firefox with support for ALL addons, use it to inspect and debug web pages etc.
And if you feel like it you could take it a step further and install Zink and Box86 to play Windows games.
Just as a tip: you can run every Add-on on Firefox nightly. You can add your own add-on collection and select from that. You have to go into dev mode though. Yo do taht by tapping the Firefox logo in the about section like 5-10 times. You have to have a Firefox account though. Or you could use my fairly small add-on list:
Username: 16700479 Name of the list: cookies
chroot into an ARM64 distribution is a must.
Do you mean like when you install kali nethunter in termux? Or are you referring to something else
No thats it. You can also install Fedora, some nice project I forked some while ago.

Try to use my apkverify tool.
It may be broken or not work on some APKs, getting it running on Termux is kinda weird, but you could then use a better output of APKSigner to read signatures and verify APKs on first install.
Apksigner on its own was pretty useless for me, thats why it uses a workaround. Apks are zips, so it renames the file, decompresses and reads some file where the signer is actually mentioned with Name and all. Then it deletes it.
Iirc there was some bug with Termux and the unpack thing, because Android sucks I guess. On Linux it works fine.
termux targets an extremely out of date sdk and is therefore quite insecure.
Im gonna be honest i really don't care about that. There is no sensitive data on my phone except maybe social media logins and i have a recent backup so🤷
Odd choice to use GrapheneOS if you don't care about security. More power to you, though.
The long term support might make it worth using, even if you don't care about security/privacy
