What is the best way to share a folder available on the host system to

If you want just to temporarily move files, /tmp is the same in and outside scratchbox.

Currently I keep having to copy my program folder from the host to
/scratchbox/users/adam/home/adam/ which is the environments home folder
full path on the machine.

The trivial answer is that you can have a link in your $HOME to your scratchbox home directory and operate there when outside scratchbox as well.

I tried to make links in that folder to the but  the paths are broken
(as expected) when i login to sb.

After scratchbox is started, you can add (as root) an extra bindmount in your scratchbox home.

Or, you can bindmount your entire home.

However, this means you need to separately handle the custom bind mounts before shutting down scratchbox.

That or manually unmounting everything post-stopping scratchbox.
