Is there an option in slurm to launch a custom script at the time of job submission through sbatch or salloc? The script should run with submit user permission in submit area.
I think you are after the cli_filter functionality which can run plugins in that environment. There is a Lua plugin for that which will allow you to write your code in something a little less fraught than C.

There is example Lua code for this here:
