Flow along surface but with meshes in grasshopper

Grasshopper
1

Hello everyone, is there a way to transfer a curve projected onto a mesh to its unrolled counterpart (given that the topology is the same) similarly to what “flow along surface” does?

I attached an example file to play with.

Bonus question: if I have a curve that is close to the mesh but not exactly attached to the mesh how do I project it into the actual mesh?

Edit: everything should be done in grasshopper
Thanks Riccardo

I have used this before and it works pretty great. I think it will work for your situation.

For your second question: there is a mesh closest point component. You can use that
