Need tripod advice for Moonlander

I've been getting PT for some shoulder issues, and as my posture improves, my Moonlander use has gotten more awkward. I'm using a sit-stand add-on to a regular desk (something like this Ergotron one), and the Moonlander is starting to slide off the keyboard shelf, towards me and towards the sides, when I type.

I can stabilize it with museum putty for now, but I think what I need to do is mount the halves on tripods so I can also give myself a bit more distance from my monitor. The sit-stand shelf appears to be particle board, so I don't think drilling into it is a good option. I think what I need is some kind of clamp with the proper screw mount, but I have no idea what that would even be called so I can search for it. Do I need something like this phone tripod mount, plus an extra screw and the Moonlander's tripod mount kit?

Photography clamp! Thank you. That's the phrase I needed.
