Doom Emacs has an 'org-capture' script that uses emacsclient to
externally invoke a new frame with 'org-capture' in it. Maybe this could
be a good starting point?

Thank you for the link. I have found it interesting due to I am unaware
what is considered as best practices in relation to invoking of emacsclient.
Though I am a bit lazy to try doom-emacs just now. Does the script works
correctly if emacs server is already running but with no frames at the
moment of script execution?
A couple of things I have noticed in the script:
- Systemd service file in emacs stops server without redefining of
kill-emacs-hook.
- Despite it was not exactly the same problem, cleanup in shell script
after completion of a child process was discussed in [1]. Some subtle
aspects are better highlighted in the non-top rated answer. I suspect,
in the case of emacs races might happen in different places.
