Case contract

Input: {"board" (before the move), "rights": castling rights string or "-", "move": [from, to], "halfmove"}. Return the next {"rights", "ep", "halfmove"}: a king move removes both of its side's rights; any move from or onto h1/a1/h8/a8 removes the matching right; a pawn double step sets ep to the skipped square only when an enemy pawn stands beside the destination; the halfmove clock resets on pawn moves and captures, else increments. Empty rights render as "-".

Why this case matters

These updates decide whether castling and en passant are legal on later moves.
