If you are just trying to enumerate members of a python object, and possibly invoke them, then wouldn't a LanguageContext's DynamicOperations get the job done? Perhaps I am misunderstanding your objectives though.
HostingHelpers.GetLanguageContext(ScriptEngine) to get the LanguageContext, and then just use the Operations property from that. This gives you introspection methods for GetMemberNames() and a number of invocation mechanisms. All you need is a reference to an object to inspect and the language engine that owns it (or one that is compatible with it). In my implementation of a Watches/Locals/Modules UI for a python debugger, I use that procedure as the basis for routines that populate the inspector grids. Basically, whenever the user reaches a breakpoint via my settrace() hook, I inspect the members of all variables in the current scope and refresh a visual tree (really a grid with indentation), and as they drill down into those objects I just walk down one step further into the data structure. It isn't the fastest thing in the world, but then again it doesn't have to be - the script is effectively paused until I allow the breakpoint to resume.

Now I'm trying to find how to get a (new? current?) CodeContext to, for instance, call DictProxy.keys(..) The public constructor of CodeContext signature (a PythonDictionary and a ModuleContext) doesn't match the examples I could find (ScriptScope, LanguageContext). Does anyone know of any examples of introspection of a hosted IP scripting from C#? Evidently there's a lot I'm missing here and would like to do the due homework first. I'm using NET 4 and don't need 2.x compatibility.
