The documentation to GrasshopperPlayer would be here.
There’s a thread from April 2020 that you could read through:

Write Rhino Commands in Grasshopper

Turn your Grasshopper definitions into Rhino commands The latest V7 WIP contains a new “GrasshopperPlayer” command along with several new components for this feature. The GrasshopperPlayer’s intent is to allow a definition to be run as a normal Rhino command. Here’s my “show and tell” presentation on the subject during our weekly development meeting. PLEASE NOTE: This is a SUPER EARLY prototype that will go through a lot of changes. As always, I’m interested in feedback and sugg…

The basic idea is that you use some “Get” components from the Params -> Util tab (in your case, it sounds like Get Integer or Get Number is all you need), do your magic, and then use Context Bake to bake the geometry into the Rhino document.

Once you have added those components to the Grasshopper definition, you can use the player to run it. You could also use the Script Compiler to turn this into a plug-in.
