I see a lot of comments about the general topic, but none on the actual tool, which appears to have no (public-facing) updates in about three years. Presumably it could be a tool that incrementally improves over time with the explosion of data lichess has, but surely there would be a single commit since 2019. Do we know that this is what's actually running on lichess's backend today?

https://github.com/lakinwecker/irwin has more recent commits and I think is what actually runs on Lichess, or at least close to it. Not sure much fundamentally changed though. This isn't "the whole of Lichess' anticheat". It's a tool doing one specific thing which it mostly has been doing that way since it was created. There are a bunch of other parts to cheat detection, some of which are much more recent developments. For example kaladin, which has also been linked in the other thread about Lichess. But there's a fair bit more. Understandably though, Lichess doesn't really talk much about all of them, even though pretty much all of it is open source if you know where to look and how to use it.

Thanks for the context - I haven't spent a ton of time looking around but it does seem like there are several moving parts (and evidently some important stuff isn't in the same github org)

Yes, it is used according to this: https://lichess.org/source

Thanks! I didn't know about this page.
