A code-free way is

  1. Navigate to Settings > Customizations
  2. Click on "Customize the System"
  3. Expand Plugin Assemblies
  4. Select the assembly that contains your custom workflow step
  5. Select the custom workflow step (i.e. check the box)
  6. Click Show Dependencies

The gist of the answer is to write FetchXML to examine the xaml attribute of the workflow entity.

E.g. looking for the plugin Example.WorkflowStep

<fetch distinct="true" >
  <entity name="workflow" >
    <attribute name="createdon" />
    <attribute name="primaryentity" />
    <attribute name="statecode" />
    <attribute name="workflowid" />
    <attribute name="ownerid" />
    <attribute name="type" />
    <attribute name="owningbusinessunit" />
    <attribute name="name" />
    <attribute name="category" />
    <attribute name="xaml" />
    <filter type="and" >
      <condition attribute="type" operator="eq" value="1" />
      <condition attribute="statecode" operator="eq" value="1" />
      <filter type="and" >
        <condition attribute="rendererobjecttypecode" operator="null" />
        <condition attribute="xaml" operator="like" value="%Example.WorkflowStep%" />
      </filter>
    </filter>
    <order attribute="primaryentity" />
  </entity>
</fetch>
