Chess

Standard chess, given as FEN. Stockfish 19 scores every legal move by expected score; the answer is a UCI move. See Methodology.

Fewer puzzles than the other models, so results are noisy.

Quality is the mean oracle score of the moves played, × 100. The best move scores 100; an illegal move or no move scores 0. Protocol boardbench-0.2.
