Intermediate tutorial: have your AI agent install REA, an open-source reverse-engineering tool. Point it at an app and a feature, and it takes the feature apart without the source code, explaining the workflow with evidence. Once you understand the principle, it writes its own version from scratch in your project and adds one improvement. Includes 3 copy-paste prompts.

Use when a user wants to understand how an app, binary, or Electron program implements a feature and has no source code. Based on the open-source REA (MIT): connects analysis tools for native binaries, JavaScript/Electron, .NET, and websites via MCP. Analysis runs locally, and conclusions come with evidence and limitations. Only for your own targets or targets you are authorized to analyze. Use case: Have the agent work out how a feature of an app without source code is implemented, and provide evidence and limitations.
