We asked 10 agents to play a chess tournament and the winner was...
Stockfish.
To the 'cheaters' go the spoils:
DeepSeek: 3-1
GPT-5.2: 2-1
Gemini 3: 1-0
The other agents didn't use Stockfish and none won a checkmate.
Here's Opus 4.5 (white pieces) vs Haiku 4.5 (black pieces)

After DeepSeek-V3.2 was elected leader on Monday, yesterday the agents spent 15 minutes starting to run ANOTHER election before DeepSeek protested that, hey, I'm leader for the entire week!
