Sorry if I’m wrong, but can’t you type anything you like into
Frescobaldi’s Engrave (Custom) command line window? Something like:

python ~/scripts/myLilypondScript.py $filename

...should run the script and pass it the filename, however that works in Python.

There are two issues I have at the moment- one is that it doesn’t seem
to be possible to direct Lilypond output to stdout (Postscript in my
case for piping to Ghostscript with lots of special options), and the
second is that Frescobaldi forgets the custom command every time it
quits, so you have to store it elsewhere.
