Processing Custom Alexa Skill Cards in AVS-SDK

Question

I am building some simple custom skills with card like this:

this.response.cardRenderer(skillName,textCard); this.emit(':responseReady');

I have AVS SDK installed on a Raspberry Pi, but I can't see where the card info ends up. The service simulator has the following info in the service response:

  "card": {
    "content": "hum, I can't sense any fan here.",
    "title": "FanControlIntent on"
  },

Is there anyway I can extract the card info so I can process it in the SDK on my raspberry pi? My first guess is this will be in the payload of the directive but is not.

Based on amazon developer forum, Card data is not exposed in any API at the moment. See the following ref.
