Who is this for?

Chess Students — solve daily puzzles and analyze broadcasted master games to improve tactical skills
Tournament Organizers — monitor player status and ongoing transmissions to orchestrate e-sports events

Frequently asked questions

Yes! Use the list_broadcasts tool to find the tournament and then identify the specific match ID. The agent will retrieve technical updates and moves directly from the Lichess official transmission feed.

No. Lichess is a non-profit organization and all public data is free. However, providing a Personal Access Token (PAT) is highly recommended to ensure stable performance and higher rate limits during deep analysis sessions.

Simply ask the agent to run the get_leaderboards or get_top_10_variant_leaderboard tool. It will retrieve the elite rankings for all supported variants, including the player's rating and title status.
