An early chess trainer that imports a player’s Lichess games and quizzes them on plans and ideas, rather than only drilling moves.

Chess players reviewing their own Lichess games
Worth noticing
The page says its full diagnosis engine, verified points, and ratings run server-side but are not yet in the front end.

Field notes

The proposed diagnosis sorts a player’s games by colour, time control, opening, and game length before identifying a costly weakness. Its Ideas Trainer is described as quizzing players on plans and explaining them. The page says imported games and the trainer are live, but places the fuller diagnosis engine, verified points, and ratings on the server rather than in the current front end.
