Hoshi

Bring in a whole board from a screenshot or SGF. Scrub through the game, try a branch, and see the local model's suggested moves. This is separate from 사활 helper: it does not give an exact life-and-death verdict.

Import a whole-board screenshot or an SGF to begin.

Your imported games

Opening one brings back its board, its moves, the position you were looking at and the branch you were exploring. Kept on this device and in this browser only: not synced, not backed up, and not part of your Play games or your 사활 problems.

    Engine model

    Each imported board loads a model automatically: the one saved on this device — Play's review models included — that fits its size, preferring one validated there. Choose a file only to use a different model for the board on screen. Nothing here replaces the opponent or review model used on Hoshi's Play page.
