THIS IS AN ACTUAL F*CKING GOLD

The guy behind REA just open-sourced a full reverse-engineering stack — 20 repos so you can spin up your own RE lab.

Core analysis

  • REA — one MCP that talks to everything → http://github.com/morluto/rea
  • Ghidra + GhidraMCP — free decompiler your agent can drive
  • ida-pro-mcp — hooks your agent straight into IDA Pro

Mobile / apps
• jadx + Apktool — tear Android APKs down to Java and put them back together
• Frida — inject and hook running apps live
• ILSpy — .NET decompiler

Binaries & low-level
• radare2 — full RE framework that lives in the terminal
• x64dbg — Windows debugger
• ImHex — hex editor with its own pattern language
• angr — symbolic execution

Traffic & runtime
• mitmproxy — sit in the middle and read everything
• dnSpy — debug and patch .NET on the fly
• rizin + raddebugger — radare2 fork + Epic’s debugger

Rebuild & verify
• awesome-ai-reverse-engineering (122 repos)
• awesome-reverse-engineering (REA author’s curated list)
• ready-made REA investigation flows
• clean-room loop: SPEC.md → rebuild → oracle → repeat until it matches

Flow: binary → REA → SPEC.md → rebuild → oracle → retry

Bookmark it. Point it at any app and let it explain itself.
