I dunno - could be there is none directly. If not you might need to pick pieces together from desktop.el and frameset.el, e.g. as a start try #+begin_src emacs-lisp (progn (defvar saved) (let ((saved (frameset-save (list (selected-frame)) :app desktop--app-id :name (concat user-login-name "@" (system-name)) :predicate #'desktop--check-dont-save))) (desktop-outvar 'saved))) #+end_src Evaluating this will insert a readable expression that describes the layout of the selected frame into the current buffer.
