No, not really. For the insert citations stuff, it's mostly about config
file entries that can be added manually - these are described in the
respective commit messages linked to above.
Regarding the command line options, there is a little help if you run
`texworks --help`. But it's really pretty self-explanatory, if you run
`texworks --insert-text="Hello world"`, it should insert "Hello World"
into the top-most window. The --insert-cite command is mainly an alias,
implemented for compatibility/interchangeability with TeXstudio (which
is supported out of the box by JabRef - so testing with JabRef is
straight-forward by configuring it to use TeXstudio for pushing
references but providing the path to texworks instead).
HTH,
Stefan
