Does anyone have a working local scanner for Mozilla Observatory integrated in Ansible?

I need the local scanner because some websites require a subpath to be scanned, which is unsupported by the public version, but the Python library that I use (from [http-observatory/httpobs at main · mozilla/http-observatory · GitHub](https://github.com/mozilla/http-observatory/tree/main/httpobs)) is no longer maintained and gives wrong results for some tests. There’s only a node/js scanner ([GitHub - mdn/mdn-http-observatory: Backend for HTTP Observatory on MDN](https://github.com/mdn/mdn-http-observatory/)) but it requires a postgres database, and I just want the scanner, I don’t need to store the results.
