How to grant Full Disk Access for binary executables on Tahoe (26.1)

I'm on Tahoe 26.1 and trying to grant Full Disk Access to some binary executables (that live under /bin or /opt/local/bin, installed via MacPorts) but different from previous MacOSes such as Sequoia 15.6.1, trying to add these binary executables to the Full Disk Access in Preferences (via + or via dragging them there) does not result in those being added to the list. Indeed, the list only contains .app Programs. But I need some binaries (called via ssh) to have full disk access - any idea on how to accomplish this on Tahoe would be appreciated.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 26.1
