Dynamo Workspace Refresh

I noticed that as the Dynamo scripts do not launch the Dynamo Workspace I cant not use any python commands that reference it. IE using it to get the version of dynamo installed when using nodes to send settings, history, pc infor back to a SQL database for tracking. The other thing is as it is not launching the workspaces some python does not execute. Autodesks answer is to put a boolean node and switch it from one to the other to trick the python block to run again (requires you to hit run twice). Unlike when its ran in a dynamo player mode where it force reruns everything.  

Is there a possible way to use clarity to force rerun everything on script?
