"""
Custom Chess Tokenizer for the Chess Challenge.
This tokenizer treats each move as a single token using the extended UCI notation
from the Lichess dataset (e.g., WPe2e4, BNg8f6).
The dataset format uses:
- W/B prefix for White/Black
- Piece letter: P=Pawn, N=Knight, B=Bishop, R=Rook, Q=Queen, K=King
- Source and destination squares (e.g., e2e4)
- Special suffixes: (x)=capture, (+)=check, (+*)=checkmate, (o)/(O)=castling
