Quality: 8/10 Relevance: 9/10

Summary

AttoChess is a complete 278-byte DOS (.COM) chess program that draws the board, reads a move, and performs a four-ply minimax search. It is a size-optimized descendant of LeanChess, released under MIT, and demonstrates aggressive code golfing while maintaining a playable game in a highly constrained environment.
