Play games as a Lichess Bot account.
A regular player account must first be upgraded to a Bot account with
bot_upgrade_account —
irreversible, and only possible before the account has played any game.
Once upgraded, a bot streams incoming challenges and game state and reacts
to them (moves, resignations, draw/takeback offers, chat) rather than
using the normal web UI; see the board module for the
equivalent flow for human-driven clients.
All methods here require a bearer token with the bot:play scope, except
bot_get_online, which is
public.
