That may be somewhat unexplored territory. In the early days, most of the forum were tinkerers and had a lot of discussion and speculation on how things worked, mainly for the troubleshooting purposes. There’s a pretty hard line at discussing anything that could conceivably be construed as enabling unsanctioned access to so-called intellectual property. But doing something with the endpoint that tells you the status of your machines doesn’t seem like it could lead down that path. And there is an existence proof for at least one serious long-term unofficial add-on (Glowforge Material Manager Chrome Extension) discussion that didn’t get banned.
Personally, if I were building such a thing, I might announce it here (well, not here in Problems & Support) but move any serious discussion elsewhere, especially for stuff like auth that might be more sensitive than just a silly hack.
