In your installation of minetest in the doc folder you will find the lua_api.txt that should document all things a mod can use in that specific version of minetest or read this html-version.

Also consider using the Minetest-Dev-Wiki. You might want to study the contents of the Modding_API category such as:
* Methods
* Types
* Objects
* Modding FAQ

There is of course the Modding Book from rubenwardy that contains some examples.

but considering you seem to have been posting to the minetest forum since 2012 I guess you know all that and the request is rather about the "well commented" - well whatever you find out please add it to the minetest-dev wiki for the benefit of others. ;-)

I've been trying my best to keep the Australopithecus parts well commented and documented...well, except those parts that aren't "done yet" and might change. If you want to have a look at it, I hope you find it easy to digest.
