If you're writing your own build from scratch in Lua script, why would
you care about CMake script?  If you say "because you're going to need
to look under-the-hood at CMake script modules to figure out how
they're supposed to be used," I'd call that a documentation problem.
CMake script users shouldn't have to look under the hood to figure out
how use CMake modules either.
