I'll start:
If the engine can en passant, it must. If there are multiple en passants possible, pick at random.

Yes, there can. For example, white pawns on d5 and f5 and black moves e7-e5. White has two en passant options.
That's just the first feature, and nontheless, we can try
(ps: i didnt mention anything about human intervention (but those humans cannot use other engines) and there's no time limit)
This would be an almost impossible task, the Stockfish team and its volunteers put in countless hours perfecting it. The only other team I can think of that has put up a comparable amount of work is the LC0 team and they haven't managed to dethrone Stockfish. The Deepmind team in 2017 claimed they created an engine named AlphaZero that defeated Stockfish 8 in a 100 game match but the match was completely controlled by them and behind closed doors and AlphaZero abruptly disappeared after their claim so not sure how truthful their claim was.
Deep learning NN. transposition tables. Alpha beta pruning. MINIMAX search with NN to evaluate leaf nodes. Endgame table bases. Opening book.

It didn't disappear, but the company isn't interested in the Chess engine exactly, but the process of the code learning on its own. Other people got access to the engine after r the demonstration and publication of results. The information from their test was pretty well documented.

-- NOTE: this is cancelled due to it literally being impossible --
Everyone can suggest one, and only one, feature to be added to the engine in a message.
Forbidden features:
- accessing any other engine
- psychological manipulation
- i might add more rules later on but for now this much
Maximum depth is 12 full moves. The goal is to make a fictional engine that can beat Stockfish. Have fun!
