I see what you mean I'm afraid there's no "ISIS adjacency dampening" feature.
And unfortunately there's no support to register the BFD session directly with
physical link or IFL to monitor it's state.
Another option would be to use event options and disabling and enabling the
interface manually, but once again I see there's no support for BFD (maybe in
your version of code there will be).
So I guess what you remain with is LFM link-fault-management (you can use sub
second timers there) to put the interface to a rest and use "hold-time up" to
introduce a desired delay getting it up again.

I don’t understand why BFD can't be configured as a standalone protocol under
protocols stanza same way as oam lfm is.
Something like the below.
set protocols bfd interface ae0 pdu-interval 100
set protocols bfd interface ae0 pdu-threshold 3
set protocols bfd interface ae0 apply-action-profile put-link-to-a-rest
set protocols bfd action-profile put-link-to-a-rest event link-adjacency-loss
set protocols bfd action-profile put-link-to-a-rest action link-down
