I think - define DH parameters so that it matches the actual
orientation of Your tool and do not attach any pwmgen/stepgen to it.

Then there is very nice way to solve it:
Use mux2 and limit3 components:
Mux2.sel pin should be the open/close command (can be driven from
g-code, if linked to spindle or coolant on/off HAL pins), mux2.in0 and
mux2.in1 should be stepgen positions, when gripper is closed and open.
Link mux2.out to limit3 input, set acceleration and velocity limits in
limit3 and link limit3 output to stepgen pos-cmd input.

No, I think You are wrong.
Genserkins is extremely powerful, where it is applicable. I would say
that genserkins is the reason, why EMC can beat majority of commercial
robotic arm controllers in terms of ability to accept "normal" g-code
- AFAIK all the robots need special CAM postprocessors, which convert
Cartesian commands into motori position commands, so the code is not
understandable by the operator.
The problem with genserkins is customizing it, because it is very
complex uses very advanced math functions, like jacobian.
I think that I did everything needed for genserkins to work with
linear joints, but I need some help with testing it, because it does
not behave really the way I would expect it, but I am having
difficulties understanding, how to debug it.
