This may be what you want:

https://api-docs.katalon.com/studio/v4.6.0/api/com.kms.katalon.core.webui/com/kms/katalon/core/webui/driver/DriverFactory.html#getExecutedBrowser()

I am afraid that the above URL points to the v4.6.0 documentation. The document seem to be outdated.
I tried DriverFactory#getExecutedBrowser() method but unable to compile.

I made a Test Case:

import com.kms.katalon.core.webui.driver.DriverFactory as DF
import com.kms.katalon.core.webui.driver.WebUIDriverType
WebUI.openBrowser('')
WebUI.navigateToUrl('http://demoaut.katalon.com/')
WebUIDriverType dt = DF.getExecutedBrowser()
WebUI.comment("WebUIDriverType is ${dt}")

This emitted:

WebUIDriverType is Firefox (headless)
