Is it legal for a script to open card decks?

Hi,
I had a question regarding the legality of a hypothetical script:
Said script would log into a nation, check that nation's card page, and "click" to open any available decks.
Assuming that the script would not violate any timing rules (I understand that all of the above are gameside calls, rather than API calls, and therefore have stricter rate limits). Would it run afoul of the scripting rules?
I believe it was indeed illegal to have such a script during the April Fool's card event. But I am not sure whether that extends to the current game, or whether it was a restriction imposed only for the duration of the original special event.
Moreover, reading the scripting rules, it looks like opening a deck does not satisfy the criteria for being classified as a "restricted action". This suggests that it would be legal to have a script open available decks.
Thanks in advance for the information.
