Reading docs about How do I set PCB layout rules in Flux for net-specific trace widths, differential pair routing, copper pours, keepouts, and mounting holes?.

Reading docs about How do I route traces in Flux PCB layout, including USB differential pairs and ground pours, and how can I fix DRC overlap and short errors?.

Checking if I can make the changes for you.

This is the most relevant entry I found related to the topic:
Positioning
To move a component, left-click on it and drag it to the desired position. For rotating a part, there are two options:
  • Right-click on the part you want to rotate and select "Rotate right" or "Rotate left."
  • To rotate parts quickly, use the open or close square brackets [ ]
Note: you will see that moving or rotating a component creates an Object-Specific Layout Rules with the desired position or rotation. You can edit the rule directly instead of using the UI elements.
How do I rotate or flip components?
  • Rotate: Use the ] or [ keys or the context menu.
  • Flip: Press F while a component is selected.
Step 1
Place J1.
  • Move J1 to X = 20 mm, Y = 0 mm
  • Put it on the front side
  • Rotate it so the connector opening faces outward/down off the bottom edge
  • Center it horizontally on the bottom edge
When J1 is placed, reply done and I’ll give you Step 2 for U2.

Seeking.

Reading docs about How to manually place and orient PCB components in Flux, flip a component to the back side, add mounting holes, define antenna keepout areas, create ground pours, set layout trace width and clearance rules including differential pair style routing guidance, and route traces in the PCB editor..

Reading docs about Can Flux AI place and orient PCB components for the user automatically, or must the user manually place components in the PCB editor? Also how do users rotate and flip components in the PCB editor?.

Reading docs about Does Flux let the AI directly move PCB components for the user, or is component placement done by the user in the PCB editor? Find documentation specifically about arranging components in PCB layout and starting layout after schematic..

I can’t do that for you directly.
I could not find relevant documentation showing that Flux AI can directly place and orient PCB components for you in the PCB editor, which probably means that feature is not available in Flux.
