Jev Chess
One shared online chess board where the internet plays against Jev, with every legal move as an option and live calibration scoring.
This summary is based on how curated lists describe the project; its README was not available to review.
Overview
Jev Chess at jevchess.com is a hosted game with a single shared board on which the internet collectively plays against Jev. Each of Jev's turns is one Choice question whose options are all the legal moves, so an illegal move is impossible. The returned probabilities shade the pieces on the board, showing how Jev's preference spreads across moves.
A live calibration panel scores each claimed confidence against a one-ply material check, giving a running view of whether Jev's stated confidence matches simple tactical reality. No README or source was available, so details such as the state encoding and how community moves are chosen are not documented.

How it works
- Community makes a move on the shared board
- Engine lists all legal replies
- Jev picks one via a Choice; probabilities shade pieces
- Calibration panel checks confidence against a one-ply material check
Strengths
- Illegal moves impossible by construction
- Visible probabilities and live calibration feedback
Caveats
- Hosted only; no source available
- Chess strength not a goal
