There are few reasons superserver API is not publicly documented, one of them is to prevent an easy discoverability of outdated instances outside firewalls by hackers.

You can also try to ask WRC privately if above option is not suitable for any reason.

That's a kind offer, but I'm not looking to contract out the work.
Are you willing to share whatever your insight is or a reference resource?

That works quite well.
The oldest version I found is 2007, I checked on it, works well. If you have a version older, could you say the version?
I think, maybe later I can add more features there, for instance execute classmethod or routine
