how to get reference of server in deployd (Node.js)

I am using deployd and have a need to access current server object in a background thread i.e. There is no request/response or session involved. Is there any way to get this reference?

This gist shows how you can grab the server object. Keep in mind that the resource may be constructed multiple times while a server is running.
