Your subject month was out by 2!

By default, position and title are dynamically set, so anything you use to read 
them are likely to change them!

And mintty may also be in Tektronix or ReGIS terminal emulation modes.

You can easily `man mintty` and look in the Wiki

	https://github.com/mintty/mintty/wiki

if you think there are mintty "commands", for example:

	https://github.com/mintty/mintty/wiki/CtrlSeqs

I don't know of any "commands" per se but these.

There are:

- user defined key settings that can be set in startup config files to report 
the output of certain mintty functions;
- startup options where you can set title, position, geometry;
- option `-R modes` to report lots of information;
- log options to dump information during operation;
- the system menu Copy Title selection to paste the title into the clipboard;
- many xterm/vt/console control escape sequences that report terminal emulator 
information and change settings:
