What’s the status on exposing the bots to ChessUp 2?
First the lichess integration will be done. The bots are one update behind that.

I am not sure I understand the exact question? The Chess.com bots are available currently
Is the bot integration via a sanctioned and supported API?
I’ve been tracking this feature since December and is my criteria to buy your product.
We work closely with Chess.com. They are fully on board with what we are doing and helping to make the integration work well. We are in constant communication with them, but it is a new venture for them on the integration front.
Yes - Chess.com is our partner and we connect to their bots via an official API. You get access to same bots as you would on the site or app.
Why is always a firmware Update needed for new bots? Whats the technical reason for it?
We haven’t yet setup the board to pull down the bot images when they update, and didn’t want to show a placeholder. We plan to do so, but it’ll be after a few other features are in.
