   I've used ClearScript before to use JavaScript as a DSL in a tool. No issues at all. https://github.com/microsoft/ClearScript

4. CefSharp

   I dont want to state the obvious but of course there is CefSharp .. But of course thats pretty heavy duty as you end shipping a headless version of Chrome in your app, but it can do anything a browser can do (of course it can, its Chrome), including exectuting a JavaScript string on the fly and getting a response. Because its Chrome you evenn have access the the dev tool and everything like that. But the other suggestions might be better suited as they might be more lightweight.
