Statically get all attributes of class

I want to be able to call a static method of a class (or classmethod) to only get the attributes of that class. By the attributes of the class, I mean the ones that are set in the constructor of the class. I also use inheritance, so I would like to be able to do this for both MyClass and MyChildClass.

class MyClass():
   def __init__(self, x = None, y = None):
      self.a = x
      self.b = y

   @classmethod
   def get_all_attr(cls):
      return ?

class MyChildClass():
   def __init__(self, z = None, **kwargs):
      self.c = z
      super().__init__(**kwargs)

>>> MyClass.get_all_attr()
['a', 'b']
>>> MyChildClass.get_all_attr()
['c', 'a', 'b']

I know that __dir__() exists, but I have not been able to call this statically. I've also tried MyClass.__dict__().keys(), but this also won't work.

class MyClass:
    attribute1 = "Value1"
    attribute2 = "Value2"
    
    @staticmethod
    def get_attributes():
        return {attr: value for attr, value in MyClass.__dict__.items() if not attr.startswith('__') and not callable(getattr(MyClass, attr))}

# Calling the static method to get the attributes
attributes = MyClass.get_attributes()
print(attributes)
