Hello Is it possible to have that? I couldn't eliminate this weird frame unless set the frame-opacity 0

this looks like an issue caused by window manager misconfiguration and covering it with picom instead of fixing it is a bit wrong.

Because this frame is drawn by the window manager, the compositor has nothing to do with it. There are apps with completely transparent backgrounds: conky, plank. For them it's necessary to edit dwm source code to avoid drawing a border.
