I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to possibly combine the RSI and STO indicators to get the stochastic RSI. So far in my searches I haven't found anything, and I'm still new to the framework and trying to grasp these more nuanced pieces. I could write the algorithm for it myself, but it seems silly to do if I'm just missing something, also seems like this should be a thing... does anyone have a way of doing this?

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like the RSI and STO indicators can be combined due to the object types that the indicators return.
However, since the a StochRSI is just:
StochRSI = (RSI - Lowest Low RSI) / (Highest High RSI - Lowest Low RSI)
it is quite possible to store the lowest low and highest high. The indicator extensions .MAX(int period) and .MIN(int period) can also be implemented. The StochRSI can be updated during every iteration of OnData(), and then can be used to create trading signals.
