The error message isn’t that helpful. You have to putthe code in an async function:

browser.commands.onCommand.addListener(async command => { switch (command) {
    case '1 Host Connect': {
        const { id: windowId, } = (await browser.windows.getLastFocused());
        const { id: tabId, } = (await (browser.tabs.query({ active: true, windowId, })))[0];
        const pageSelection = (await Promise.all(
            (await browser.webNavigation.getAllFrames({ tabId, }))
            .map(({ frameId, }) => 
                browser.tabs.executeScript(tabId, { frameId, code: `window.getSelection().toString()`, })
                .catch(_ => '') // in production, avoid weird errors about uninitialized frames and stuff like that, but when debugging empty selection texts again, comment this line
            )
        )).reduce((a, b) => a || b, '') || '';
        // use `pageSelection`
    } break;
    // other commands
} });

Again, net tested, but it is syntactically correct and should work.
