What it does
A local reverse-engineering workbench combining bounded artifact inspection, a Python CLI, MCP tools and a native desktop preview. Findings remain traceable to their inputs.
- Identify artifacts and preserve SHA-256 identities.
- Inspect supported binary formats and compare structural changes.
- Record observations separately from inferences and unknowns.
Start with an inspectable example
- Start with an artifact you own or are authorized to inspect.
- Follow the repository setup and use a supplied fixture.
- Review the evidence record before making a behavioral claim.
rei-rea --helpUse the current repository instructions for setup, dependencies and version-specific commands.
Scope and verification
The desktop is a preview. External adapters require their own tools and permissions. A catalog entry does not mean a tool is installed, and static structure alone does not prove runtime behavior.
