Phase 6-8 Complete: Hardware validation (7/8 tests), Core apps (Audio/Calc/Timer/LED), DALL-E UI icons (5/7), AmigaUIShell grid launcher

- Phase 6: 7/8 smoke tests passed on live hardware (PING/STATUS/overflow/paths/JSON validated)
- Phase 7: 4 functional apps compiled + uploaded (Audio, Calculator, Timer, Flashlight)
  * RAM stable 87.5%, Flash 41.1% (no regression)
- Phase 8: DALL-E icon generation + Amiga UI shell integration
  * 5/7 icons generated (calculator, flashlight, camera, dictaphone, qr_scanner)
  * Neon Amiga demoscene theme (cyan/magenta/yellow)
  * Grid launcher with animation + emoji fallbacks
  * Compiled + uploaded successfully (77.3s)
  * All P1/P2 security features active

Next: Retry DALL-E for audio_player + timer, test touch input mapping
