Answer 1

I believe that content of "Preferences: Default Keyboard Shortcuts (JSON)" (command ID workbench.action.openDefaultKeybindingsFile) really shows comprehensive list of all native and extensions-contributed commands VSC knows about at moment when invoked.

This file shows keys from VSC's defaults and extension manifests. Commands with no suggested defaults are those commented out at the end of file.

Their descriptions (as seen in the Command Palette, Keyboard Shortcuts settings, extension Contributions tab and elsewhere) are supposedly in localization properties and I believe there is currently no way to see them along their respective command IDs in single convenient "localized" list. So for now the only way to read the description of command found in aforementioned JSON is pasting its ID into Keyboard Shortcuts search field. (Would be delighted to be proven wrong.)

In case someone ever fell on this and just wanted a quick-list of VSCode commands to browse through: https://gist.github.com/skfarhat/4e88ef386c93b9dceb98121d9457edbf

If you do, please note the VSCode version and commit. These may well be out of date by the time you read them.
