CAIBI’s proposed addition: Verify sensors, supported services, firmware and licence terms; resolve missed-move recovery.

Plan the next step
I want to develop this idea: Connected physical chessboard. Intended outcome: Play on a physical board while tracking moves digitally. The source is https://github.com/joojoooo/OpenChess. CAIBI suggests: Verify sensors, supported services, firmware and licence terms; resolve missed-move recovery. First inspect the source I supply. Separate what it already does from proposed additions. Ask for my actual board, parts, skill level and missing files. Produce a small staged plan with one bench test per stage. Do not invent pin assignments, dimensions or completed test results.

Design a measured enclosure
Help me design a practical enclosure for Connected physical chessboard. First ask for measured component dimensions, mounting holes, connectors, cable clearance, ventilation and operating conditions. Suggest a printable or off-the-shelf approach. Begin with a fit-test piece before a complete case. Label assumptions and do not invent an enclosure rating.

Check and document the result
Create a test log for Connected physical chessboard. Intended outcome: Play on a physical board while tracking moves digitally. Separate expected behaviour from observed results. Include power restart, disconnected inputs, communication failure and the actual physical use. Ask me to provide results, firmware versions, changes, photos and unresolved problems. Never mark a test passed without my evidence. Source: https://github.com/joojoooo/OpenChess
