My preference for handling this on Maxima's side is to catch
questions and turn the result into a conditional expression.
Conceptually it is not very complicated but carrying out the program
has various difficulties. I've made an attempt to do it
("noninteractive" package in Maxima) but it's not enough.
I would very much appreciate any help on it.

Also part of the problem is that the assume system in Maxima
is not very strong, and it has bugs. We could use some help on
that too.

I think I;ve made this appeal before --- I'm just trying to take
advantage of the momentary attention to this problem.
