CloudFormation Resource Specifications can be parsed using something like jq:

curl -s --compressed https://d1uauaxba7bl26.cloudfront.net/latest/gzip/CloudFormationResourceSpecification.json | jq '.ResourceTypes | keys'

I think you are looking for list-types:

aws cloudformation list-types --visibility PUBLIC --type RESOURCE

Since there is a lot of resources, you will probably need to execute the command multiple times to account for pagination.
