Bug report

If you find a bug in the program, you can submit it here please steps as detailed as possible to reproduce the bug

Faq

The exe automatically closes?

This may be caused by an antivirus blocking the exe, since this programs uses win api to click and perform its actions so it may be seen as dangerous by the antivirus

turn off the antivirus and it may work :D

If none of that work, discuss it here

Development

Want to contribute? Great!

Supported online chess website

• lichess.org ✔
• chess.com ❌

Future enhancements

• Add Gui for easier setups (ex : open engine list of choice from gui)
• Add support for chess.com
• Use browser automation project such as selenium to make it easier to monitor the state of the game
• Fix slow performance because of
  • inefficient usage of REGEX
  • Starting and killing the process after sending a move to the engine (which really impacts the performance because setting up the engine again after it has been killed takes time)

ajaxchessbot's Issues

Working on chess.com support

Hello and thanks for this little nice project its the only one i could use without to much install and hassle so chess.com support would be lovely thanks for making this :D

exe file didn't open at all

exe file didn't open at all

the .exe file will not open

Bot not automoving when playing black

Automove fails when playing black for a few first moves manually and then letting the bot takeover (doesn't happen when playing white"

SUGGESTION WITH THE PROGRAM

I suggest that there should be a way to make the best chess move play with the press of a key. I imagine that this is an easy thing to implement into this program.

Thank you for reading.

I hope to see it added soon.

If you are willing to go the extra mile, you can add an adviser mode just like chessbotx's. If you manage to program that, you will be a serious competitor to chessbotx.

The .exe application is not opening

I don't know if it works now currently or not but when ever I open the .exe it doesnt do anything. I can provide a video if needed. I found out the .exe opens the command prompt for a split second then nothing happens.

Fix!

Importing chess engine fail

I am trying to import Stockfish 15.1 into the Ajax Chess bot. Each time that I do it, it shows an error and then closes. I am not sure what is happening, and I am PRETTY SURE that it is UCI compatible. However, I do not know how to check.
