Absolutely cool!

I don't think "DarkThought" will find this deep mate in reasonable
time because it sees the +12 score of g3 quite early (~8 min) and
sticks with it through iteration #15.

It looks like you really need some special extensions to find the
mate. Do you do something similar as Bob mentioned for "Cray Blitz"?
Or do your mate-threat extensions save the day?

Interesting position ...
