QueenUI 0.1.0 - GUI for running UCI engines as Lichess bots

Post by stierms »

I’ve released QueenUI 0.1.0, a small GUI for running UCI engines as Lichess bots. It handles bot accounts, matchmaking, live games and engine output, with an optional headless runner for running engines on another machine. It’s not meant to be a general chess GUI or analysis tool. It’s focused specifically on running and debugging engines on Lichess.

Builds for Windows (installer/MSI) and Linux (AppImage/deb) plus the headless runner are here: https://github.com/stierms/queenui/releases/latest
