Can you explain to me how white is supposed to checkmate and win against black with nothing but dark-squared bishops?

It's actually a mate in 9 if Black moves his a7 pawn only one square instead of two squares.

My engine (stockfish 16) is finding the mate in 9. The person in that video may not have a Diamond membership, or didn't let their engine run a long time. Stockfish isn't stupid, then.

The position is legal
but it's not possible in an actual game even by 500s
I would not call it possible unless yeah both opponents worked together but that'd have to be in a casual setting, not online or otb (tournament)
The final position is not hard to see, but working out how to force it without the king having a chance for repeat position draw -- that's what makes this one quite tough. My short term memory isn't great but I could swear I managed to give him forced moves the whole way, ( which I didn't think would be possible) ... (incidentally making this puzzle quite valid , IMHO). May have to work this again later to be sure. Anyway, S p o i l e r A l e r t : This mate can only be delivered as a discovered check, and I needed to sac 2 bishops at a1 in the process. Did anyone's mileage vary on that last point?
