Section 16.5 of TUS 6.0 says:

external data that allow them also to exchange private-use characters in
a semantically consistent way between implementations. The Unicode
Standard provides no predefined format for such an exchange."
So your private agreement, in addition to specifying the meaning of your
PUA characters and probably some sample glyphs, can also specify their
properties, overriding the default properties.
Actually that section could have been clearer, saying, in the place of:
"default properties which implementations can use"
the following:
"default properties which implementations can use or override if necessary"
