This is an answer to one part of your question. The paper “Extension Theories for Monoids” by Charles Wells, Semigroup Forum 16 (1978), 13-35, gives a precise answer to the specific question: How does the Beck cohomology theory for monoids classify extensions of monoids? (It classifies Leech extensions.) Corrections The paper with corrections and a list of subsequent papers related to this it may be found here. Beck's thesis is now online here.
