Not sure how obvious, but Gwyddion does not have a server-client
architecture. Every running instance of Gwyddion and every standalone
Pygwy script is simply an independent program. So the ‘app’ in your
script is the script itself and any data management functions apply to
data loaded/created by the script.

You can write the file to disk and run
gwyddion --remote-FOO file.gwy
where FOO is ‘new’ or ‘existing’ (or possibly ‘query’) depending on what
you need, see the manual page. Note --remote-new does not terminate if
Gwyddion is not running because it runs the new instance.
