This gives you the first tag of the object.

I think this is impossible.
The code of the COFFEE tag is stored within its conatiner, see example code:

If the tag is your plugin tag and has a unique ID, then you can do something like this:
var tag;
for (tag = op->GetFirstTag(); tag; tag = tag->GetNext())
{
if (tag->GetType() == myID) // this is your tag, do something
}Note that 'myID' should instead be the actual ID number. This is on an object basis (BaseObject op). If you need to traverse the document for all objects with your tag, you'll need to set up a recursive traversal.
If the tag is just a COFFEE tag with your COFFEE code, that'll require the extra steps provided by Matthias. Use the ID of the COFFEE tag in lieu of 'myID' (Tcoffeeplugin or Tcoffeeexpression might work here).
