I hope I'm not being out of line on this list, but this seems like a
suitable context to plug OpenMM. This kind of thing is exactly what OpenMM
is well suited for, and can be done from the Python, C, or Fortran
wrappers, or the C++ API itself. Relevant link in the python API
docs<https://simtk.org/api_docs/openmm/api6_0/python/classsimtk_1_1openmm_1_1openmm_1_1Context.html#a4ce4ebac6ce95bd44e0d8c96d2f7229c>

Starting from the default script at http://builder.openmm.org/, the only
modifications needed would be to to assign the implicit solvent force to a
separate force group and then get the state:

```
MYFORCEGROUP = 1
for i in range(system.getNumForces()):
    force = system.getForce(i)
    if isinstance(force, mm.GBSAOBCForce):
        force.setForceGroup(FORCEGROUP)

[...]

state = simulation.context.getState(getEnergy=True, getForces=True,
groups=2**MYFORCEGROUP)
print(state.getForces(), state.getPotentialEnergy())
```
