I just followed HG's recommendation to swap 2 lines: so it's not really fixed yet on the Jocly branch, only on a test branch.

Sure, but it is a start.

We'll have to get back to work on improving our pull request when HGM is available for that. I've made a todo list of the remaining topics. I can make myself available for that at this time. I've noted the name change to seireigi. What summary (one line description) would you like instead of "Spirit shogi variant"  : shogi with different promotions ?

The current description is nice and minimalistic, but I think "Shogi with more varied promotions" would work better for the average player.

If you'd like me to compile a set of new variants for the CVP site, I can do that, it could be a handy way to deploy new variants, change links to a 2nd jocly (remove variant on the first should be easier).

We can at least import your Seireigi implementation to the site. That way I can have a link to that implementaton at the top of Seireigi's Rules page (For now it is in Other Options for Computer Play under Notes).

Oh, and while you are at it, you might as well import your graphics for the other Shogi variants as well (Shogi, Chu Shogi, Tenjiku Shogi), so that the graphics on this site are more user-friendly.
