How to open termux from my app?

Hi everyone, thanks for coming here.
I just have a question. I really want to open Termux app from my own app? But Termux will "cd.." or locate to specified path.

Thanks guy,

Hi thanks @agnostic-apollo
I did like that

1. Request permission:

ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(Activity.this, new String[]{"com.termux.permission.RUN_COMMAND"}, REQUEST_CODE);

2. Start intent

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setClassName("com.termux", "com.termux.app.RunCommandService");
intent.setAction("com.termux.RUN_COMMAND");
intent.putExtra("com.termux.RUN_COMMAND_PATH", "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/top");
intent.putExtra("com.termux.RUN_COMMAND_ARGUMENTS", new String[]{"-n", "5"});
intent.putExtra("com.termux.RUN_COMMAND_WORKDIR", "/data/data/com.termux/files/home");
intent.putExtra("com.termux.RUN_COMMAND_BACKGROUND", false);
intent.putExtra("com.termux.RUN_COMMAND_SESSION_ACTION", "0");
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.O) {
startForegroundService(intent);
} else {
startService(intent);
}

But nothing happens at all. I miss anything?
