There is now `ostree admin unlock` to answer this case. It will allow you to install software using rpm, which gets wiped out at reboot: https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/blob/master/man/ostree-admin-unlock.xml There is also package layering at the rpm-ostree level if you want the tools to persist across upgrades, rebases, etc... but it hasn't made a release yet.
