Lichess games over telnet (and http!)

running your own

TELNET_PORT=1234 HTTP_PORT=1235 node main.js
# in another terminal: telnet localhost 1234, curl localhost:1235

Alternatively, you can run npm start which will run on the default port (23) and use forever because my code crashes a lot.

As-is this service streams the current "tv" game using the Lichess API, but you are welcome to fork and modify it to stream whichever games you'd like!
