David Kmiec and Bernadette Longo [1] show these examples for referencing books:
> IEEE USA Energy Policy Committee, _2014 IEEE-USA National Energy Policy Rec-
ommendations_, IEEE USA, 20114. [Online eBook]. Available: http://shop.ieeeusa
.org/usashop/product/policy/68802
>
> L. Stein, “Random patterns,” in _Computers and You_, J. S. Brake, Ed. New York, NY, USA: Wiley, 1994, pp. 55–70.
Using `Medium: eBook` does not include `eBook` in `[Online]`. The book in my reference list is a good example of this. That was generated with the style.
In the second example, "ed." does not follow with a comma. Using the book section item includes it. For example:
> D. Kmiec and B. Longo, “Appendix: IEEE style for references,” in The IEEE guide to writing in the engineering and technical fields, 1st ed., Hoboken, New Jersey, United States: Wiley-IEEE Press, 2017, p. 180. [Online]. Available: https://www.amazon.com/Writing-Engineering-Technical-Professional-Communication-ebook-dp-B0758QL3S4/dp/B0758QL3S4/ref=mt_other?_encoding=UTF8&me=&qid=1638036495
For referencing manuals and software, the authors [2] give this example:
> L. Breimann. _Manual on Setting Up, Using, and Understanding Random Forests v4.0_.
(2003). [Online]. Available: http://oz.berkeley.edu/users/breiman/Using_random_forests_v4.0.pdf. Accessed on Apr. 16, 2014.
The manual in the example is an electronic resource. So, the way you write when you access it and placing it after the URL should apply to other electronic resources too.
However, I get this instead with the style:
> C. Tietze, “Use a short knowledge cycle to keep your cool,” Zettelkasten, Jul. 17, 2014. https://www.zettelkasten.de/posts/knowledge-cycle-efficiently-organize-writing-projects/ (accessed Jun. 24, 2021).
>
> Cambridge University Press, “Hierarchy,” Cambridge Dictionary. Accessed: May 12, 2021. [Online]. Available: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english-spanish/hierarchy
The first is a blog post and the second is a dictionary entry. There's no dot after the URL. The order of the URL and "Access" is not right. "[Online]" and "Available" are missing in the first reference. "Accessed" is not written right in either. Also, "Accessed" is in the wrong place in the second reference.
And finally, there's this example for including the DOI in a reference [1]:
> S. K. Esser et al., “Convolutional networks for fast, energy-efficient neuromorphic computing,” _Proc. of National Ac. of Science_, vol. 113, no. 41, pp. 11441–11446, Oct. 11, 2016. [Online]. Available: http://www.pnas.org/content/113/41/11441.full. DOI: 10.1073.
"DOI" is capitalized, but with the style it is not. See this reference:
> L. Van Waes and P. J. Schellens, “Writing profiles: the effect of the writing mode on pausing and revision patterns of experienced writers,” Journal of Pragmatics, vol. 35, Jun. 2003, doi: 10.1016/S0378-2166(02)00121-2.
The [editorial style manual](https://www.ieee.org/content/dam/ieee-org/ieee/web/org/conferences/style_references_manual.pdf) shows similar examples for everything except "Accessed," the eBook thing, and the DOI capitalization. For those, there's nothing.
Any help on this would be appreciated.

For your specific example re the eBook, that's implemented correctly.

The same goes for the other discrepancies you point out.
As this looks like a different style specific for the engineering space you'd need to adapt the style.
