sbsbaker.exe missing from Substance Designer 11.2.2

I have installed Substance Designer 11.2.2 and am testing it to make sure the automation tools I wrote still work before my coworkers also update.  sbsbaker.exe is just gone?  Has it been moved, depreciated or replaced with something else?  We make heavy use of the command-line automation tools, so this roadblocks the studio from upgrading.

Hello,
Effectivelly sbsbaker is no longer available with SD since at least 2015...
Sbsbaker is part of SAT (substance automation toolkit), today, the only way to get SAT is to have an Enterprise subscription and download it from the Admin Console.

The enterprise licesnse is over 5x what we are already paying. Is there no option for small studios with individual licenses? I've paid thousands of dollars to your two companies over the years and now, for no reason other than my being sutpid enough to remove the old program directory, our automated toolchain is busted unless we pay a 4 figure bill? Please confirm.

Hello,
Today it's the only way yes. It is planned that a "light" SAT offer for Indies and small studios will be in place but no ETA...
If you already had a license since SAT was in your automated toolchain try to contact support@substance3d.com to see with them what is possible to do.

Cheers.

There appears to be an equivalent release of substance automation toolkit, which I'm guessing includes all the executables

Substance Automation does not appear in Creative Cloud, how do I go about getting the new files?
