FreeReverse engineering tools that plug into your coding agent
What is REA?
REA (Reverse Engineer Anything) gives coding agents the tools to inspect how an app, game, binary or website works, so you can ask questions about its behavior in plain language. The agent reads the code, traces what the program does at runtime and explains the feature or helps rebuild it.
Setup is a single npx command, or you paste an install prompt into your agent, review the setup plan and restart. Guides cover Windows, macOS and Linux, plus a step-by-step path for people who don't yet have Node.js or a coding agent.
Showcase investigations walk through real examples, such as tracing Windows Calculator's assembly to explain why 200 + 10% gives 220, or examining the Chrome dinosaur game. REA can also record a web app to build reinforcement learning environments for training and testing agents.
