How does this project function? I'm digging through the source code, but I'd be curious to know from a high level perspective what exactly is going on

I'm also curious to know what it's capabilities are, as far as I can tell for CE's purposes this is simply automatic structure dissection

Sttucture dissect and looking up jitted methods (you could write a .net profiler which can also jit, but installing those on a system is a bit more permanent than just querying

As for what it does:
It uses the offline debugging functionality of .net . Instead of actually attaching the debugger to the process, i just attach it to an image of the game (realtime image but still an image for the debugger)
That way i can walk through the heap and look up objects.
