The bazel way to do it is to put the tools in an archive, refer to the archive and its checksum in your workspace, and execute the build in a completely empty sandbox.

Can you share a bit about the completely empty sandbox? Is this a build-root with it's own user and environment? Or does it build inside worktree, e.g. a subdirectory. Or can both be done?
