GrapheneOS has the duress password feature [1]. I have it enabled, but have never needed to use it.

A duress password that booted into an innocuous "safe mode" without access to your full browser and chat history would be a whole lot less likely to get you into more trouble than one which wipes the phone...

Unfortunately your phone may get backdoored in that scenario anyway if it's known to have that feature. In graphene and most Android phones with unlocked flashing, easily achieved in a few minutes. (Special recovery. It's hard to catch if done right.)

There's no way around the wipe at least and better hope the bugger installed is not persistent in some firmware.
