I need to run multiple, slightly different copies of a modeling tool, which all need access to a model repository on a different machine. Security Settings -> Network tends to pick one modeling tool (and unfortunately the wrong one) for permission, but the dialog offers no way to add the other copies manually. Where can I configure the permission on low level. [macOS Sequoia 15.6.1]
How to configure macOS app permission MANUALLY (not GUI)
I’m not sure I understand the question here. You wrote:
Security Settings -> Network
That’s not a thing. Are you referring to System Settings > Privacy & Security > Local Network?

Yes, you are right: System Settings > Privacy & Security > Local Network. The GUI does not provide the means to add more applications here. I have four copies of the modeling tool installed, which have a common core, but differ due to customizations. The OS picked one (and unfortunately the wrong one) to associate network permissions. Since then it is very difficult to transfer the permission to the right copy. I would like to give ALL four copies the network permission, but as I said, the GUI doesn't provide the ability. I think it should be possible to add this permissions manually.
Thank you in advance for any hint.
