This library communicates with DotA through random access memory using descriptors. I understand correctly? I do not see any signs of interaction with the game in the source code, but for some reason this works ... how does it work?

These packages re-implement the steam protocol. There is no need for any binaries, or steam client, nor does it interact with it in any way.
