While I am a bit fuzzy on what exactly you are trying
to achieve here, perhaps ad hoc recipes can help:

https://build2.org/release/0.13.0.xhtml#adhoc-recipe

In particular, you could add recipes for the project's
root directory target to implement some sort of project
post-install/uninstall hooks:

./: {*/ -build/} doc{README.md} manifest
% install
{{
  diag post-install
  echo "installing into $install.root"
}}
% uninstall
{{
  diag post-uninstall
  echo "uninstalling from $install.root"
}}
