Install a whole home transfer switch or a generator interlock.
Plug in the battery/inverter (this plus a large inverter, or the Delta Pro or similar) into the generator/backup input port.
Install a special breaker to charge the battery/inverter that you will turn off when on battery power.
Manually switch to the generator during outages and switch back when grid power is back. Turn on the battery charging breaker when power is back.
I use this $150 transfer switch [vevor.com] to bypass the inverter and feed the panel directly from the grid when I need to do inverter/battery maintenance, for example, and it's ... fine, does the job, no issue. 4/0-4/0-4/0-2/0 SER wiring cost me about $8/foot, and I bought 10ft. The battery breaker, even like a 50amp ($20?), plus associated socket ($35 for a wall-mount socket) and AWG6 wiring, maybe $2/foot and assume maybe 25 ft?
The battery and inverter is where it'll get spendy. But this would almost certainly meet code as long as the individual components are UL listed and you're absolutely sure to turn off the battery charging breaker before switching to the battery feed.

The answer increases in complexity the more seamless you want it. Totally doable, but also know that if you do a grid tied inverter with it that it will never meet code.
What would have to happen to get these to keep a grid tied system active during a power outage? We're in contract for a 13kw system but the power wall was a 16k add on, which just doesn't make sense. I keep seeing these deals (and delta pro) for around $4k for similar size battery.
Depends. Do you want to be able to flip a switch and have it take over? Do you want it to take over automatically? Or do you want it to be completely uninterruptible?

I was trying to figure out if there was a way to use an approx $4k battery and, even if I have to throw a switch, have solar keep working (in a code - compliant manner) during a power outage.
