8b6d8def30 Counter-Move History Continuity (CMHC)
Currently, the engine updates each level of the continuation history stack (ply -1, -2, -3, etc.) with fixed weights that are independent of one another. The idea behind CMHC is to scale the magnitude of these updates based on the consistency of the move's performance across the stack.
By tracking how often a move has historically performed well (positive history) within the current continuation context, we can adjust the update magnitude dynamically. Moves that demonstrate "continuity" (appearing as strong candidates across multiple historical contexts) receive more significant updates, while unproven or inconsistent moves are dampened.
