Serial commands are completely undiscoverable

So I just flashed Espurna to a Sonoff Pow, and I'd like to set it up using the serial interface.

However, trying to do so, I have no idea what any of the serial commands are.

I've tried googling "espurna serial interface" and all the variations of that I can think of, without any result. In addition, the serial CLI itself seems to have no facility for help. I've tried help, ?, and every single single-letter in the alphabet as a command, and they all return -ERROR unknown command.

Searching the source for that exact string points me to one of the files in Embedis (Embedis.cpp), where none of the commands are actually defined.

So, basically, how the devil does the serial command interface work? It seems to me, at minimum, it should probably support at least help or ?, or some sort of way for figuring out what it does.

Aaaand of course, now that I've been going through the wiki again, apparently the serial CLI is documented as the "Terminal" interface.

A help should still be implemented, I think. Even if it just prints use "commands" to list available commands.

Mapped "help" command to a slightly more friendly version of the "commands" command. Available in the dev branch atm.
