FWIW, ansible modules (all of them, to the best of my knowledge) operate via a stdin/stdout contract since that's the one universal api for "do this thing over (ssh|docker|ssm|local)". That's also why it supports writing plugins in any language (shell, compiled, python, etc) since `subprocess.Popen().communicate(b'{"do_awesome":true}')` works great

DISCOVERING the available ansible actions is the JFC since, like all good things python, it depends on what's currently on the PYTHONPATH and what makes writing or using any such language-server some onoz

And this wasn't what you asked, but ansible has a dedicated library for exec, since the normal `ansible` and `ansible-playbook` CLIs are really, really oriented toward interactive use: https://github.com/ansible/ansible-runner#readme
