API reference for CEP?

Is there an API reference for the CEP interface?

 

It's frustrating to try and navigate the objects without having any idea what is in them. I try iterating over the keys, but as the JS Engine is old it doesn't work on all objects. For example, the properties of a clip component show only a `displayName` key, even though I know several functions exist.

Objects available from ExtendScript are completely distinct, from the CEP interface, which is JavaScript-based. 

Here's CEP information: https://github.com/Adobe-CEP/CEP-Resources/tree/master/CEP_9.x/Documentation


That woefully incomplete reference you found, is the right place to look; feel free to improve upon it, based on your experience.

The best I could find is this woefully incomplete reference.
