Well I can't really offer much advice because you haven't communicated what it is you're doing from a design pov. Your approach from what I can gather seems to be something like an AI agent that interacts with SOM on behalf of the user. Whatever you're doing it's much more creative than anything I could've imagined from my own perspective, so I wish you the best of luck / think it's great.
I really can't imagine how something like this would work unless you're regularly saving and reloading the map in order to perform your operations. Otherwise you'd have to have access to SOM's internal state, which I could facilitate, but once inside making head or tails of it to me as I imagine it would not be a wise investment of time.
Personally (call me uncreative) I really don't see so many ways to extend the tools. But there's a lot I don't know about; hacking in general is a new and unusual domain for me.
