Is there a way to access Windows APIs like CORTANA form electron / node.js apps?

I just got the "Creators Update" on winodws 10.

I've read a while back that Cortana speech apis will become available for developers trough an SDK in this update.

Given that the node.js run-time is not sandboxed like the browser - is there a way to get the native windows apis like Cortana working in node.js? and by extension in electron.. using something like

var cortana = require ('cortana');

I couldn't find any npm package at this point. But i can't tell if is because it's too soon - or because there is some incompatibility here.

Can someone provide an explanation of what is actually happening?
