No, I have not.

But I have now found that engine and will try.

I understand "anti-GM" makes some attempt to prefer moves which require the
adversary to walk a tightrope, i.e., for there to be a sequence where his
choices of acceptable moves is very restricted.  This prejudices humans.

Thank you for the suggestion.
