Robocide, an UCI compliant open source chess engine by Daniel White, written in C from scratch, and distributed under the GNU General Public License [1]. Robocide uses Pradu Kannan's Magic Bitboards to determine sliding piece attacks. The ability to compile a 'tuning' version, allows to adjust many of the search and evaluation parameters via UCI options [2].
