Wordfish 2.70-dev-250925 - new version chess engine

 

Wordfish is a free, open-source UCI chess engine implementing cutting-edge search algorithms combined with neural network evaluation. Derived from fundamental chess programming principles, Wordfish analyzes positions through parallelized alpha-beta search enhanced with null-move pruning and late move reductions.

Wordfish 2.70-dev-250925 what's new?

Summary

Refactored the NNUE Network class to expose a reusable state snapshot, track load metadata through atomic shared pointers, and centralize metadata updates in helper utilities used by verify. 

Reworked AccumulatorCaches to rely on weight-aware cache bindings for big, small, and Falcon nets, simplifying invalidation and refresh logic while retaining cache alignment utilities. 

Adjusted the engine’s network verification logging to avoid redundant NNUE metadata lookups.
