I think the on-line engine used at Lichess is Stockfish (or more accurately, a Stockfish derivative). And I am not interested in working on Stockfish. In the first place it is written in a programming language I do not master (C++). But I also think it would be pretty hard to convert it to support more piece types, and in particular piece types used in Asymmetric Chess, such as the Wolf and Unicorn.
