The Labs edition runs overlay apps (Tetris, Breakout, Plasma, Cube3D, Beam, Beacon, FoxHunt, BroadcastFM) that upstream UVStudio installs over WebSerial. This page owns the flash image, so the same bytes go to the same offsets with no serial protocol and no browser permission: APP_REGION_BASE 0x102000, APP_SLOT_STRIDE 0x2000, APP_CODE_OFFSET 0x1000, 16 slots, taken from the firmware's own App/apps/app_overlay.h rather than inferred.
tools/uvk5_apps.py parses and validates the 64-byte FAP1 header (zlib CRC-32 over the code, vma 0x20000280, name, version, capabilities), lists, installs and erases slots, and refuses what the firmware would show as APP ERROR. test_uvk5_apps covers those refusals plus install/erase/list round trips, and parses a real upstream Beam.app when one has been downloaded. The header struct was 60 bytes at first -- a missing vma field -- which the real file's bytes showed at once.
