REA Tops GitHub Trending: Let AI Agents Reverse-Engineer Anything, Down to the Binary

Open-source project REA (morluto/rea) topped GitHub's daily trending chart on October 8, adding more than 4,600 stars in a single day per a third-party trending mirror and approaching 20,000 stars in total. The MIT-licensed project ships a unified MCP server and CLI that coordinates reverse-engineering tools such as Ghidra, Hopper and Frida, letting AI agents perform reverse and runtime analysis and return evidence-backed, structured conclusions.

What happened

REA gives agents the whole reverse-engineering toolchain through one interface: a single MCP server orchestrates tools such as Ghidra and Frida and the CLI wraps it up, so agents can analyze native binaries, JavaScript/Electron applications, .NET assemblies and websites — then produce structured findings backed by evidence. It plugs into mainstream coding agents including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Gemini CLI, and installs with a single npm command.
