Hello! I'm wondering if there is a way to track and store mouse clicks and user actions in After Effects, like which effects were applied, if keyframes are added, if a mask was created, etc. Thank you!

Long and short: No. AE doesn't have a global event/ script listener or actions like PS and AI. Any tracking of user interactions can only happen inside scripts and plug-ins and apparently those have to be explicitly coded and the scope of the tracking would be limited to thecontext of the functions and features invoked by the scripts or API calls.
