There is NG-Play around 2200 (xboard protocol) if you compile with g++:
http://users.otenet.gr/~yggeorgo/ . I recommend my bugfix version 9.87b under
https://www.ct800.net/download/NGplay_9.87b.zip . Note that the xboard "new" command does not work properly, the engine has to be restarted.
You also can use my derivative, the CT800:
https://www.ct800.net/download/ct800-v1.11.zip . Build shell scripts for Linux are included, see sources/application-xboard in the download archive. And the "new" command is fixed.

Under Linux, I use the following set of programs to test amoeba in gauntlet mode. The ranks are scaled to mimic CCRL 40/4 ratings. (Ashakta & dumb are my own private programs).

In the past I had acces to another machine running windows, while my main working pc was running linux, but now I can only work on linux and running a virtual machine is not an option here...
You can download Stockfish/McBrain and use the uci option "Limit Strength" - it will use an nps logarithm that will approximate the doubling of nps will equal ~100ELO.
Any ELO from 1500 to 2800 can be selected.
Linux version in included in exe download.

It is a normal WB engine. It uses the same protocol driver as all my recent engines. And I run the MinGW compile every month in the blitz tourney under WinBoard without any problems. It is true that I don't test under Linux much. But there is no platform-dependent code in it other than for reading the clock. So I don't see why it shouldn't run under cutechess-cli or Linux.

Ouch my bad: compiled it accidently on the wrong platform (x86 versus arm).

Yes, it is. It plays nothing but normal Chess. (This could change in the future; the design is quite suitable for Mighty Lion Chess or Werewolf Chess.) I never noticed any illegal moves during the blitz tourneys. Again, do you have a log file?
