Automating Wiring Definitions

Hi, I'm working with somebody on automating wiring definitions, building on the feature using a combination of featurescript and the REST API. A simple example document is here https://cad.onshape.com/documents/44adfa521eac9f65b1686aba/w/e94a5de4028a6ac7b2de2707/e/c3524d72f04047fa46de8b2f. The Wiring feature wants wiring operations to be done in an in-context part studio. I'd like to be able to automatically lay out connectors based off items in the assembly context. Looking at the data returned by /partstudios/d/{did}/{wvm}/{wvmid}/e/{eid}/features I can see the foreign references when I base geometry off of the assembly, but it looks like those reference parasolid objects accessible with /documents/d/{did}/externaldata/{fid}. Is there a way to auto-generate geometry based on the assembly context?
