Just set repetition as a loss-condition. But this will only enforce three time repetition. So it really needs a human to evaluate this particular scenario.

Both stalemate and checkmate are win-conditions.

A draw-condition is when both sides do not have pieces which may cross the 'river'.

Draws are actually infrequent in XiangQi, when the rules are properly applied.
