♟️ Chess.com Complete Move Guide

A Tampermonkey userscript that analyzes the current position on Chess.com and visually shows the best move directly on the board using Stockfish.

Highlights the FROM square, TO square, and updates automatically as the position changes.

📌 Features

  • 🔍 Live position analysis using Chess.com’s built-in Stockfish engine

  • 🎯 Clear visual move guide

    • Yellow circle = piece to move
    • Green circle = destination square

  • 🔁 Auto-updates when the board position changes

  • 🎚️ Adjustable engine depth (1–25)

  • 🧠 Works in:

    • Live games
    • Game review
    • Analysis board
    • Puzzles

  • 🖥️ Clean, minimal UI overlay

🧩 How It Works

  1. Reads the current board state from the DOM
  2. Converts it into a FEN string
  3. Sends the position to Stockfish
  4. Displays the engine’s best move visually on the board
  5. Re-analyzes automatically after every move
