Lua access is different from API access. Lua access is currently only possible within Commons.

@Tacsipacsi That's sad, but I suspect there has to be plans to add Lua support (smth like WikibaseMediaInfoClient extension). Maybe you are aware of such phabricator issue or have a roadmap link (I'd subscribe to their updates)?

Also, is there any other way to query some data (not just structured data) about Commons media files from a Wikipedia module?

I tried to find something about the cross-wiki support (I’m pretty sure I once read that there’s no cross-wiki support yet), but I didn’t succeed.

Some very basic information (dimensions, MIME type etc.) can be queried about any (Commons or local) file using the title library.
