Available Tools
The server provides the following tools:
get_board_visualization()
: Provides the current state of the chessboard as an image. The board orientation automatically flips based on the user's assigned color.get_turn()
: Indicates whose turn it is ('white' or 'black').get_valid_moves()
: Lists all legal moves for the current player in UCI notation (e.g., 'e2e4', 'g1f3'). Returns an empty list if the game is over.make_move(move_san: str)
: Makes a move on the board using Standard Algebraic Notation (SAN) (e.g., 'e4', 'Nf3', 'Bxe5'). Returns the move in SAN and UCI, the new board FEN, and game status.new_game(user_plays_white: bool = True)
: Starts a new game, resetting the board. By default, the user plays white. Sets the user's color for board orientation. Returns a confirmation message.find_position_in_pgn(pgn_string: str, condition: str)
: Finds the first board position in a PGN string matching a condition (e.g., "bishop on a3") and returns an image of that board state. The condition format is "piece_type on square_name". Valid piece types are "pawn", "knight", "bishop", "rook", "queen", "king".
