Very cool! Landlock is great for this usecase of application driven
sandboxing.

(just a quick note, the linux-security-module/linux-integrity
mailing lists mostly for kernel development patches, the
landlock.lists.linux.dev list is more for
userspace Landlock topics like this. so I removed the cc for
linux-security-module/linux-integrity and added that list)

I notice there is a seccomp policy for unix sockets in this application.
Although it might not be in your kernel yet, support for sandboxing
named unix sockets with Landlock was recently merged. :)
