I wrote a very basic python code chess engine (it makes random moves only), but I'm having issues with it getting "Stuck" on moves in Banksiagui after a few moves, but when playing a computer in Banksiagui it has no issues, and with CuteChess it never has any issues playing a computer or a person.
So I've uploaded my code to github (https://github.com/Tyler-Jay-Stevahn/Chess-Engines/), and for a more specific version of the GUI's I am using Cutechess (https://github.com/cutechess/cutechess/releases/tag/v1.3.1) and Banksiagui (https://banksiagui.com/download/) Version 0.58 for Windows. I am using Pyinstaller to make the python file into an exe file as well.

Setting up Maia chess locally and making it play unique games
Additionally, I ran a round-robin tournament between all 9 Maia networks using cutechess. Here you can download the tournament results with full 36k game PGN/EPD as well as the json configuration used to specify engine settings.

I want to write my own computer programs to train and analyze my games. I would like a computer interface for inputting and outputting chess moves. Any suggestions?
I use cutechess for automatic engine vs engine tournaments as a great way to test playing strength improvements. The GUI is supposed to have less features than the command line tool, but it's more than enough for me. This also has support for playing a set of openings from a pgn file.

Any software developper here? I need some help with my chess app
If your app supports xboard or UCI protocols, you can use cutechess to make it play against any engine supporting one of these protocols, including stockfish.

Losing Chess but you gotta lose the King to win
This variant is also known as Codrus chess. It is e.g. supported by Cutechess https://github.com/cutechess/cutechess and Fairy-Stockfish https://github.com/ianfab/Fairy-Stockfish. Some info on the game can be found in the cutechess documentation: https://github.com/cutechess/cutechess/blob/e47db4d9553d9a76202ee3c8f2357f5d3ed59f49/projects/lib/src/board/codrusboard.h#L29-L47

Engines Opening Books
That said, if you are planning on running an engine tournament, I hope you are aware of cutechess cli. Using this would avoid the need to specifically use abk format opening books.

Chess.com STOCKFISH ENGINE - Platinum vs Diamond Membership
There is a server that automatically compiles the latest stockfish binaries to save users the hassle https://abrok.eu/stockfish/ also if you aren’t a chessbase guy I really recommend nibbler as a gui https://github.com/rooklift/nibbler I switched to it two years ago and love it

any free chess SW?
you can use lichess if you dont want to download anything, but I would recommend stockfish or leela and nibbler (https://github.com/rooklift/nibbler) for the GUI
-
Is there "any" human-like computer?
I use nibbler https://github.com/rooklift/nibbler, well using the largest net will be the strongest adversary if thats what you want. An elo somewhere around 2500~ so a smaller or older net may be a better sparring partner. Since there is such a range of nets in every point of training progression you can find one which is almost exactly equal to you.

intra-game engine win lose draw estimate?
Some GUIs like Nibbler support WDL and enable it by default. It's very easy to use.

How does one prep with an engine?
Use lichess. If you really want a gui and have a good computer you could consider using Nibbler ( https://github.com/rooklift/nibbler ) with leela (Lc0) or stockfish.

Fastest Chess Engine
Nope you can download it. I’d even recommend using leela too. If your looking for a speed, I find she can understand a position better then stockfish can (assuming you have a decent gpu). Try downloading nibbler from here https://github.com/rooklift/nibbler/releases/tag/v2.1.6 and stockfish from here https://stockfishchess.org/download/ . If you need help setting it up or want to see what it looks like pm me
