Is There a Way to Convert an Existing Fusion 360 Design into Python Code?

Hi,
I'm exploring the possibility of reverse-engineering an existing Fusion 360 design to Python code. I’m already familiar with the Fusion 360 API for creating designs via code, but I'm looking for a solution that can take an already made design and convert it into a Python script, essentially capturing the design history, parameters, and features in code form.
I’ve considered a few approaches, such as manually extracting parameters or exporting to neutral formats (like STEP or IGES) and then using Python libraries to process the geometry. However, neither approach seems to offer a straightforward, automated path to a full parametric Python representation of the design.
Are there any tools, techniques, or workarounds available that can help convert a completed design file into a Python script? Any insights, pointers, or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help!
