Reverse Engineer Anything: universal MCP

[chants]

Reverse engineer anything with agents, from app behavior down to native binaries.

REA connects your agent to tools for inspecting native binaries, JavaScript and Electron apps, .NET assemblies, and websites. You can also use the same tools from your terminal. Analysis runs locally, and results include the evidence and limitations behind each conclusion.

Setup registers REA with your agent and installs matching workflow instructions. Native analysis can use an existing Hopper, Ghidra, or IDA installation; setup can optionally install Hopper with approval. Static JavaScript analysis needs no native analysis engine.

No debuggers integrated yet. It's only for static analysis.

Sometimes the reverers have to use custom tools, which are not covered by this app.

Of course you are right, it is currently limited to static analysis. What surprised me was the huge amount of stars and forks and activity on issues and PRs and such. There is clearly a lot of interest by non professionals. I think your average person is scared away by the raw tools and find these sort of vibe coded projects that promise universality more appealing. Granted they need to download at least one tool to do the underlying work anyway.

To your point, my agents running gdb or windbg have solved complex issues so much more rapidly and cost effectively than by static analysis. Trying to find a needle in a haystack requires more than aifting through vast amounts of code.

It’s really helpful for making reverse engineering accessible, handling lots of one-liner RE tasks by non-experts, like "crack this app for me".
