I want to get the arguments of all the `some_function();` in

You can't do this with any of D's built-in introspection features
(like `__traits`), because those features have no way of looking
inside functions.
However, you can probably write a program to do this using the
DMD frontend as a library.
Dub package (use the `dmd:frontend` subpackage):
https://code.dlang.org/packages/dmd
Documentation: https://dlang.org/library/dmd/frontend.html
Unfortunately the documentation is somewhat incomplete, so you
may need to spend some time reading the source code to figure out
how it all works. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
