This typedef shouldn't be necessary?

Is there a reason this is "extern"?  I don't see this used anywhere
outside py-micmd.c.

Did you mean

   "The returned value must be a Python string

I think I'm a bit more confused now.  :-)

Can you clarify this please?

Double space after periods.

"a multiple levels" => "multiple levels"

There's aspace vs tabs mixup above, and in other parts
of the file too.  Please fix that throughout.

the return line is unreacheable, since error throws.
Remove it, and then remove the unnecessary braces.

Please remove reduntant parens:

    else if (name_len < 2 || name[0] != '-' || !isalnum (name[1]))

> +    {
> +      error (_("MI command name does not start with '-'"

Likewise remove the return line.

> +    }
> +  else

Since the conditions above if reached never return you
could drop the "else"s, which removes this indentation level.
Also, I'd use "== 1" instead of "< 2", since you've already
checked 0.

Like:

  if (name_len == 0)
    error (_("MI command name is empty."));

  if (name_len == 1 || name[0] != '-' || !isalnum name[1])
    error (_("MI command name does not start with '-'"
             " followed by at least one letter or digit."));

  for (int i = 2; i < name_len; i++)
    {
  ...

Ditto re. the return after error.

Indentation of "error" doesn't look right.
