Do you mean the CPS? For the K6/K63, it's available on the Baofeng website, but
I'm pretty sure you already know it

The "new" K6A is probably the same as K6 simply "rebranded" by some seller that
has placed a bulk order, which seems to be a common practice. I have just asked
the seller if they provide a CPS,the answer is negative, they added that you
can use the wireless frequency copy function. However, CHIRP works fine with
this model, if you choose K6. It is most likely the same hardware, just
rebranded.
Sorry for not being able to provide more precise information, but it's hard to
get details about the various Baofeng clones.
