stratified_human/

• Files: merged.bin, merged-map.bin, merged-metadata.parquet.
• Contents: 768,000 Lichess standard games from 2022 and 2023, 45,728,786 plies. Stratified into 768 cells: 16 White-Elo buckets by 16 Black-Elo buckets by 3 time controls (bullet, blitz, rapid), 1,000 games per cell. Classical excluded.
• Encoding: same binary token format as Alfredvc/chess-autocomplete-lichess. merged.bin holds 46,496,786 uint16 tokens, one per ply plus one game-end token per game; merged-map.bin holds uint64 per-game byte offsets (768,000 entries); merged-metadata.parquet holds one row per game.
• Generation: the Rust chess-bin-stratify tool (rust/src/bin/chess_bin_stratify.rs) re-buckets per-division binary triplets that chess-pgn-stratify encoded from the monthly Lichess .pgn.zst archives.
• Read by: the stratified_human component (chess_autocomplete/evals/components/stratified_human.py).
• License: CC0-1.0. Derived from Lichess CC0 data.

allie_benchmark/

• File: 2022-test-annotated.jsonl.
• Contents: 884,049 scored positions from Lichess 2022 blitz games. Opening plies and moves played with under 30 seconds on the clock are excluded.
• Source: file lichess-2022-blitz-test/2022-test-annotated.jsonl from the Hugging Face dataset yimingzhang/allie-data, fetched by scripts/download_allie_test_set.py.
• Read by: the allie_benchmark component (chess_autocomplete/evals/components/allie/).
• License: MIT (Allie, Zhang et al., 2024). Underlying games are Lichess CC0. See LICENSES/allie-MIT.txt.

maia/

example_test_dataset.csv

• Contents: 127,852 rows of scored positions from Lichess December 2019 rapid games, sub-30-second moves already excluded. The maia component scores the 106,740 of them with move_ply > 10, dropping plies 0 through 10. Grouped Skilled (56,812), Advanced (41,747), Master (8,181).
• Source: the Maia-2 project copy, Google Drive id 1fSu4Yp8uYj7xocbHAbjBP6DthsgiJy9X.

• License: MIT (Maia-2, CSSLab, 2024). Underlying games are Lichess CC0. See LICENSES/maia2-MIT.txt.

cross_skill_2023-12.jsonl

• Contents: 4,932,999 scored positions from Lichess December 2023 rapid games. Per active-Elo by opponent-Elo cell, counts match the Maia-2 Appendix Table 8 matrix. Row schema tag chess_autocomplete.maia2_cross_skill_regenerated.v1.
• Generation: generate_maia_cross_skill_rows in scripts/run_eval_suite.py scans lichess_db_standard_rated_2023-12.pgn.zst from database.lichess.org in source order and keeps rows per cell until each target count is met.

Training exclusion

The released models are not trained on the Lichess months these sets cover: 2019-12, 2023-12, and 2022. Keeping those months out of training is why this repo exists. All three releases (91M, 350M, 700M) train on the same 21 monthly shards, 2024-01 through 2025-09, listed under data_config.shards in each run's training_config.yaml in chess-autocomplete-v1-checkpoints. Every evaluation month here predates that window.
