Chess Website where Engines are allowed?

What I'm looking for is a website where I can create an account and receive a rating where I can make a human-engine duo. The purpose is to test out how well a human can perform with engine assistance as opposed to just the engine playing. Where is this possible?
There are some competitions that have human engine duos. There was actually some kind of title for it awarded officially by the USCF as I hear from one of my correspondence friends. I might try it but then again I don't see the point if all games are computer ran its whoever has the better engine and wants to work out stuff between engines. I have no time to do that so I do not bother.

this is called "Advanced Chess", at least by wikipedia. It's a computer-human duo that compete against another duo. Basically, machine does tactics, and human navigates strategy, selecting from the potential lines given by the computer.

I don't see a reason why there couldn't be a part of this site dedicated to it, because truly it seems like a pretty nifty concept. Of course, for any casual game, as long as you communicate your intentions with your opponent, this is probably ok....though that's still something you'd want in writing from the lichess-powers-that-be.

There is one way of doing this in this site. Not easy but need some work from your side.
1. Create a team with a purpose to play casual games using engine assistance.
2. Only members of this team can play each other.
3. Collect the games to create a rating list.
4. Asks the site moderators if this is fine.

In (1) it is better to inform which variant the team is going to play.

In (3) there are software's that can do this. Just feed the pgn file and you will get a rating list. One is ordo and bayeselo.
