maker-documented host interface
The guide identifies I2C address 0x50 and documents built-in-mode selection, all-off control, raw discrete and RGB LED writes, plus a two-byte status response. It says malformed raw writes are rejected without partial state changes. This is a published operating interface, not a warranty of host compatibility, electrical safety, bus arbitration, command support by a particular badge, or a software library.
