You can install a chrooted devuan with debootstrap, at least I used to
do that all the time, been a while though.

Well, welcome to embedded programming...
It seems that even if you use JTAG, esptool is involved somewhere;
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/jtag-debugging/index.html
And if you're only running some programs on the target,
why not use an OS:
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-reference/system/freertos.html
There seems to be a lot of info about rtos and esp8266, e.g.:
https://github.com/espressif/ESP8266_RTOS_SDK
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp8266-rtos-sdk/en/latest/get-started/
uPython and esp8266:

it seems you can flash the target without esptool:
