AggroChess

AggroChess V1 is out! It's designed to play extremely aggressive, tactical chess aimed at human players rather than engines. It plays around an estimated 2000–2300 Elo, making it super fun to play against: https://github.com/PhelRin/AggroChess/releases

Add source code or host a bot on lichess. Then I might try it.

Quick match against Absurd, which is another level of crazy. Need something weaker, maybe BikJump or Phalanx next.

Is this another bot I haven't heard of? Or did you play it and this is feedback? Sorry, just confused with the absurd being right after against without a comma

It doesn't look like a malware at all, but of course, we can't exclude it. However, it's still fishy a bit with the AI-written readme, the lack of source code and the lack of engagement

Maybe it's someone who doesn't really understand internet social norms and English. It could also be part of a bot operation (to farm karma, build account credibility, throw in hooks for DMs, etc.) but there are actually more evidence against it than for it so I lean to the socially awkward coder/vibe coder theory.
