Description
See a feature in an app and wonder how it works? REA lets your coding agent inspect the app without its source code, explain what it finds, and use those findings to build a version for your project. It works with native binaries, JavaScript and Electron apps,NET assemblies, and websites. Use it with your coding agent or from the terminal. Analysis runs locally, with evidence and limitations included in the results.

Could you build this?
No Building an automated reverse engineering engine that disassembles, decompiles, and semantically analyzes native machine code binaries, .NET bytecode, and Electron runtimes requires deep binary analysis and compiler engineering expertise.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires integrating headless disassembly engines (Ghidra, IDA, or LLVM-based decompilers), .NET IL decompilation (dnlib/ICSharpCode.Decompiler), and Chromium/V8 DevTools Protocol inspectors. The hard problem is automated symbol recovery, control flow graph synthesis, and context-window distillation so an LLM can accurately reconstruct architectural features from raw bytecode. This necessitates a team of veteran systems and security reverse engineers.
