When writing a script, the autocomplete feature offers easy access to the main functionalities. When typing the keywords "Maxwell", "Scene" or "MXI", the Script Editor will display a dropdown list, giving you access to all the available commands to control the Maxwell engine, the scene settings or the MXI settings respectively.

Example
...
This simple script accesses all the MXS scenes in a folder and its subfolders, changes the scenes' render settings, renders them and saves the output image in the specified location. You can change the commands and use the autocomplete help to explore all capabilities.
