Prepare a tumbler by thickly rimming it halfway with a zesty lime rub. Cut a notch into half of the Fresno chile and place on rim as garnish.
Muddle the watermelon and remaining Fresno chile in a cocktail shaker.
Add the tequila, lime juice, and agave syrup to the shaker. Fill with ice and shake for 15 to 20 seconds.
Double strain the cocktail into the prepared tumbler filled with ice.
