That already exists: kgs-game_over is sent after every game (if you
support it). That it's up to your bot to decide if it should
terminate, run a full garbage collection, pause pondering, etc... I
think most people use a sentinel file.

Incidentally, if a new version of kgsGtp appears, the one feature I
desperately want is a way to tell kgsGtp to disconnect after the
current game. As it is, I have to either wait for the end of the
game or kill my program in the middle of someone's game.

Yes, there is a way. Error responses start with "?" and success
responses start with "=". The bigger issue is how to detect crashes
in kgsGtp. Maybe it's as simple as having kgsGtp kill a bot with
outstanding commands before joining a new game.

I have heard back from wms:

So it seems that CzechBot (=MoGo) and Fuego need to implement
something, I don't know what. It's strange that this has never
come up before.
