The suggested method is posed a challenge in my deployment, as the guacd server is hosted independently and served through an ELB. Direct disk access to the guacd server is not available to clients or the web application, and currently, guacd does not appear to support remote recording retrieval via an interface.
I will proceed to investigate other options. Should anyone have further insights or alternative ideas, I would appreciate it if you could share them by replying to this email.

The rendering is calculated server-side (guacd) and sent to the client as instructions to draw the terminal content. These instructions can be images representing a portion of the display, such as those you may have intercepted through the websocket. What is the need? Is this for auditing purposes? If that's the case, you might be able to use the session recording extension: https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/recording-playback.html I agree - I think the typescript recording would allow you to pull the data from those commands. -NIck
