A.C.A.S (Advanced Chess Assistance System)
[!WARNING] A.C.A.S is currently in development. Expect bugs, especially on variants.
A.C.A.S (Advanced Chess Assistance System) is an open-source chess assistant (not a chess cheat), designed to help you make better moves using a chess engine. Just install the userscript, open the A.C.A.S GUI, and you're ready to go. No downloads necessary!
[!CAUTION] The use of A.C.A.S may violate the rules and lead to disqualification or banning from tournaments and online platforms. A.C.A.S is meant to be used as a real-time learning tool. Remember, struggling at chess doesn't mean you're unintelligent... it's not an IQ test, just a board game. And even IQ tests only measure certain aspects of your abilities. Use A.C.A.S fairly, be kind to other players.

| The engine runs on a completely different tab than the chess game page, completely isolated from it. The site cannot block the usage of A.C.A.S. | A.C.A.S sends move data via CommLink and the userscript displays the data on the board using UniversalBoardDrawer. (If "Display Moves On External Site" setting is activated!) |
