​@@MuhammadAli-dk6dz You don't need an API to read the screen. I'm not a good programmer, but I know how to read the screen to convert a chess board image into a Stockfish save file. In about one hour I wrote a program last week that reads the screen and in about 5 seconds creates a Stockfish save file. Your point was that this bot was very fast, much faster than 5 seconds, but remember I'm a really lame programmer and if I can do it in 5 seconds, others can do it in 0.5 seconds.

From what I can guess, he can program to automatically send what moves his opponent made to a software and then get the best move from the software and make it automatically. There's no way he has another tab open where he manually makes moves, it wouldn't work in Bullet. But then again, StockFish does take a while to calculate the best move but I'm guessing he used some C++ version rather than JavaScript which is slower, and used a smaller depth in configuration.

Anything can be done if you can program well enough

[@Llenrup]

This is a copy and paste from a comment above explaining it: There is a kind of browser extension, or a software, that allows the people to have an engine set in fixed depth, it could be depth 1 ELO 1500 depth 2 1800 elo depth 3 2200 or maybe fixed depth 8 enough to be like Eric then this script is similar to the flyordie apocalypse software on 2014 where it sends to the screen some arrows to where to instantly moves, allowing the cheater to even do human moves and allowing the user to streaming his screen without showing the arrows because streaming software as xplit allows you to select specify a .exe then if this guys has a .exe script, and not browser script, he can simulate to be a human making mistakes but instantly having answers of where to move in depth 9 or 12 or whatever stockfish can do instantly without delays and mistakes, usually, depth between 9 to 12 so for this reason i said, that in a streaming, the screen and the DISPLAY REAL LIFE SCREEN should be streamed then you will see if he has the arrows watching his real life display through xplit you can ignore the arrows. Hope that helps.

One day while pumping iron, his endorphin levels rose so high that the gates of chess Nirvana opened before him. Unfortunately he only had time to steal the bullet codex from the divine temple, before the gates slammed shut, returning him to his massive, sweating bulk, trembling on the gym floor..

[@Ekid33]

I've never seen someone cheat at bullet before, and at first I was gonna jump in and defend this guy . . . but after a minute of thought I realized that opening up another tab to input the move against an engine there is a really dumb way to cheat. It would be relatively easy to build some overlay that could point out the best move on the real board in real time. This would be a much more . . . efficient method than the tried and true open up another tab technique. I figured if such an overlay existed, it would likely be in the form of a Chrome extension, so I got curious and did some research. And, oh boy, not only is there such an extension . . . there are DOZENS of them. They vary from hilariously bad to good but impractical to scarily effective. Here's a few I found, discussed for your entertainment and for science (for SCIENCE ONLY, guys! To defend my ass against public scorn, I'll mention I tried each of these out in 1-2 bullet games to review them before un-installng them (except Chess Compass, which is actually pretty nice for analysis!), and had a policy of resigning each game I played when the extensions actually worked [although I confess I won two games with the first one that worked as it was before I decided to test all of them and write a post about it.]) BROKEN/NONFUNCTIONAL: GB Chessextension -- chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chessvisionai-chess-posit/johejpedmdkeiffkdaodgoipdjodhlld?hl=en ChessMaster -- chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chess-master/ahanamijdbohnllmkgmhaeobimflbfkg?hl=en I don't know if it's something wrong with my computer or if I didn't set them up right, but these just didn't work at all. I got a blank overlay from one of them and the other didn't appear to do anything at all. GOOD for analysis, BAD for cheating (at least in bullet time control): ChessVision.ai (endorsed by Ben Finegold, wowee!) --chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chessvisionai-chess-posit/johejpedmdkeiffkdaodgoipdjodhlld?hl=en Chess Compass -- chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chess-compass-free-online/djkdhnacahocjglfmgdkcogbmnhholch?hl=en ChessVision is just way too slow to account for the kind of cheating used in the video. It could be used to cheat in blitz pretty effectively, though. Chess Compass is even safer. It can't be used to analyze the game in real-time, so it's basicaly an extra analysis board to use after the game. CHEATING ENABLED: Chess.com Next Move -- chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chesscom-next-move/ieaoeokfilgofofpdcehmgokenlnbdaa?hl=en ChessOnSteroids -- chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chessonsteroids/cmpjnbjbkjmmppgbbejhokpehdbpfgpo These two literally give you the next move, in real time, using an engine described as "Strong", but "human-like". The main difference being that Next Move gives you a PGN notated recommendation, while ChessOnSteroids HIGHLIGHTS the best move on the board with lightning speed. • Handy in your chess improvements. • Could be used for understanding games of strong GMs as it also suggests moves in spectator mode. Definitely totally NOT to be used for CHEATING. HOW COULD YOU EVEN THINK THAT?? I would bet good money that this guy was using one of these two extensions, most likely ChessOnSteroids, as the highlighted move overlay allows you to cheat VERY quickly. IMPORTANT: I do not endorse or condone cheating by any of you guys in any context on chess.com, but I found it pretty interesting and entertaining to see all the available programs. Yes, that makes me a hypocrite for trying them out, and no, that doesn't give you a free pass. But I don't see anything wrong with trying these programs out with a willing friend, or using them for game analysis. I also recommend ChessBrah doing a video on them! It's interesting to see the dark side of chess cheating engines.

But yeah, it has a feature where you can essentially just plug it into ICC, Lichess, Chess.com, chess24 and play at a lower ELO and not be discovered. You're not using depth 26+ or something crazy, just around 2400 rating range. Best way to identify a cheater especiay if they are at the same rating as you....you don't see any way to get an advantage. They outplay you completely, exactly how it happened to Eric.
