The trending open-source project REA (Reverse Engineer Anything) bridges coding agents like Claude Code and Codex with traditional reverse engineering tools such as Ghidra and IDA via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This enables developers to use AI to inspect compiled binaries, trace function calls, and validate hypotheses, supporting static analysis for JavaScript, Electron, and .NET assemblies without claiming full source code recovery. Community feedback suggests REA outperforms direct AI interaction with Ghidra in specific scenarios, sparking debates on the durability of closed-source software moats in the AI era.
