About

Lichess Community (BYOK) lets an AI assistant read your own Lichess Community data through the Lichess Community API with a key you supply (personal API token (no scopes are needed for these read tools)). Read-only: 12 tools (get_top_leaderboards, get_tv_channels, list_current_tournaments, get_arena_tournament, list_simuls, list_top_broadcasts, get_fide_player, search_fide_players, get_puzzle, list_live_streamers, autocomplete_usernames, get_crosstable). The BYOK key travels with each request, is used for that one call only and is never stored, logged or cached; it is only ever sent to lichess.org. Unofficial connector by Unify Dynamics LLC: not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Lichess Community. Lichess Community and its logos are trademarks of their owners and are used only to say which service the connector works with.

Create one at https://lichess.org/account/oauth/token, with the fewest permissions it needs (read-only if the provider offers it). Your assistant sends it in the X-Upstream-Key header with every request. It is used for that one call only: never stored, logged or cached, and only ever sent to Lichess Community.
