Roslyn - How to create a custom debuggable scripting language?

Sometime ago I decided to play a little bit with Cakebuild. It's a build automation tool/system that allows you to write build scripts using C# domain specific language. What's more it is possible to debug these scripts in Visual Studio. It is interesting because Cake scripts are neither "normal" C# files nor are added to projects (csproj).

By debuggable I mean that it'll be possible to debug scripts in our language in Visual Studio almost as any "normal" program in C#. Cakebuild uses Roslyn i.e. a compiler as a service from Microsft and we'll do the same.

AS
BEGIN
    /*...*/
    RETURN
END

GRANT EXECUTE ON dbo.pr_Fun TO public
