Hi Murat, Good luck with your project.
No, I'm not one of the developers. I can just about read C if I stare at it long enough. But I've never devoted time to learn it properly. I've just been on the mailing list a long time, contributed bug reports and rollout time, and answered questions when I can to save the real devs the bother. My coding skills are specific to industrial control systems. It's rather different to standard high level languages.

Good luck. I just spent a couple hours on Python today, starting with this post from Michael Petch in December 2013: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnubg/2013-12/msg00013.html It briefly explain how to start using the GNUBG module. Then I visited https://docs.python.org/3.10/tutorial/index.html and selectively read from the Python tutorial some sections to get a quick start. If you know other programming languages, you'll pick it up very fast. I really like it. I was able to quickly figure out the individual parts of the script that I need already, using the interactive interpreter. Hopefully I will be able to assemble them into an actual script file and will share it freely when I get it working. I would encourage you and anyone who wants to experiment with GnuBG to take a look at it. Are you one of the GnuBG development team? My other comments about the auto-roll and auto-play functions, (unrelated to the specific subject of the script making cube decisions for the bot), are still valid and hopefully will be heeded by the GnuBG team. In fact, they cause problems in the GUI also. If interested you guys can look at this thread in RGB for example: https://groups.google.com/g/rec.games.backgammon/c/ikCPgBiZHvs/m/SW66d7ZACAAJ Thanks for your trying to help. You did at least motivate me. MK
