chesshacker turns Meta glasses into cheat engine

The impressive part is the reliable multimodal pipeline, not the AI’s chess strength. It shows how quickly consumer hardware, specialist models, and deterministic software can become covert real-world assistance.

• –Stockfish supplies move quality; Opus 5.5 or another vision model only interprets board changes.
• –Jev filters blurry, blocked, or unchanged frames before expensive vision calls.
• –chess.js validates legal moves and requires repeated confirmation, limiting perception errors.
• –The architecture is a strong template for multimodal agents: capture, filter, perceive, validate, call a specialist, speak.
• –The fair-play implications are serious: useful for accessibility or analysis, but clearly cheating in rated or in-person competition.
