To work around this pass TART_HOME explicitly:
sudo chown $USER /dev/diskX
tart run sequoia --disk=/dev/diskX

sudo TART_HOME="$HOME/.tart" tart run sequoia --disk=/dev/disk0
Warning: after running the chown command above, all software running under the current user will be able to access /dev/diskX. If that violates your threat model, we recommend avoiding mounting block devices altogether.
