mini-chessformer-micro
A smaller Chessformer chess engine for the browser: it reads the 64 squares, searches ahead, and plays one legal move.
About 2.8 million parameters. Same arena package contract as minichess-gpt.
What's in this repo
This is a browser chess engine package (chess-gpt-package-v1), not a Transformers checkpoint.
A compatible runner loads:
browser/manifest.json — file list and hashes
browser/entry.js — search and move picker
- the ONNX net named in that manifest
Use
Point a chess-gpt-compatible runner at burrowdweller/mini-chessformer-micro. It calls loadPackage → newGame → chooseMove({ history, legalMoves }) and must return one of those legal moves.
The net is small on purpose. Strength comes from searching at move time.
