Maybe we just use Zaks tool to pull from the inline text (Krinkle?)
A few months back I've asked Zak to publish his tool into the repository[1], but never heard back from him. I'll ask him again.

I think it is to some extent, but nowhere near as bad as it was...
Needs checking again, as we've added a few more modules

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:ApiResult.php has content, rest is still empty:
