Where they are and how can I use them?

They are part of the Amazon firmware system installed on your Kindle.
ccat is written in Lua (you can read its source as text).
It is the collections database "middle-ware" (interface) code.
I think that lipc is also a mixture of script and compiled code.
It is a scripted-by-Amazon "middle-ware" interface to the Kernel's DBUS IPC and event systems.
Using lipc - lots of examples on this site. It is part of the Inter-Proccess Communications system.
For specific usage on refreshing the collections view, read the sources at the link to github on the page NiLuJe gave you the link to. The earliest versions of the source communicated with ccat directly.
(LibrarianSync is also a scripted application.)
