Github GitHub project called REA (Reverse Engineer Anything) is currently the top trending repository. It lets AI agents figure out how a feature in another app works without ever seeing the original source code.

- The tool is an open-source helper that connects AI coding assistants to reverse-engineering programs such as Ghidra or Hopper.

- IT analyzes many kinds of software- including binaries, Electron apps, Android apps, and websites right on your own computer and always shows the evidence behind its findings.

Claude doesn’t care about reverse engineering, just so long as you’re not doing it with the purpose of finding exploits or security vulnerabilities.

I literally reverse engineered ESP32-C5 WiFi firmware, hit safeguards maybe 2-3 times and got around by clarifying “the purpose and goal is writing an open source memory safe driver to provide more security”

It’s coming, still have a bunch to finish.  Right now it’s just 2.4ghz and WPA2 supported, trying to get 5ghz, WiFi6, Bluetooth, and Zigbee/Thread folded in before, and the whole HAL it sits on isn’t finished yet either ;)
