Pentago Swap AI Agent implements an intelligent opponent for the Pentago Swap game by leveraging a Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) algorithm to explore and evaluate potential game states. At each turn, the agent simulates numerous playouts, scoring resulting board positions to identify moves that maximize win probability. It supports customization of search parameters like simulation count, exploration constant, and playout policy, enabling users to fine-tune performance. The agent includes a command-line interface for head-to-head matches, self-play to generate training data, and a Python API for integration into larger game environments or tournaments. Built with modular code, it facilitates extension with alternative heuristics or neural network evaluators for advanced research and development.

BotPlayers is a versatile open-source framework designed to streamline the development and deployment of AI-driven game-playing agents. It features a flexible environment abstraction layer that supports screen scraping, web APIs, or custom simulation interfaces, allowing bots to interact with various games. The framework includes built-in reinforcement learning algorithms, genetic algorithms, and rule-based heuristics, along with tools for data logging, model checkpointing, and performance visualization. Its modular plugin system enables developers to customize sensors, actions, and AI policies in Python or Java. BotPlayers also offers YAML-based configuration for rapid prototyping and automated pipelines for training and evaluation. With cross-platform support on Windows, Linux, and macOS, this framework accelerates experimentation and production of intelligent game agents.
