How to detect if a group of pieces is surrounded in GO game?

Question: How to check if chess pieces are being surrounded in Go?

Rule: If the local group of chess pieces does not have any Liberty(The connecting space that has not been occupied by opponent’s piece), this one or this group of chess pieces would be removed.

This is the rule of Gconnect which uses the same capture method as Go. Could anyone please shed some light on what to do capture detection in JavaScript? Thanks!

This is my code, which does not work:

let grid;
let rows;
let cols;
//Add a state machine;
let whosTurn;
let winner;
let bKoList;
let wKoList;

//Testing
let wStones;
let wDead;


function setup() {
    restart();
}

function mouseClicked() {

    if(!winner){
        let x = findNearestIndex(mouseX);
        let y = findNearestIndex(mouseY);

        //Check ko list
        if(whosTurn == "b"){
            for (let i = 0; i < bKoList.length; i++) {
                if(x == bKoList[i].x && y == bKoList[i].y){
                    showWarnning();
                    return;
                }
            }
        }
    
        //Track which intersections are occupied
        if(grid[x][y] == "empty") {
    
            //SetStoneFaction
            grid[x][y] = whosTurn;
    
            //findLiberty();
            //clearGroup();
            //removeDead();

            //Testing
            findStoneGroup();
            clearAndDrawBoard();
            drawStone();
            checkWin();

            //refresh ko List
            if(whosTurn=="b"){

            }
    
            //Track whose turn it is
            //Set next player
            if(whosTurn == "b")
                whosTurn = "w";
            else whosTurn = "b";
        } else {
