_AustinCalvert_ · x · 2026-10-12
- REA, a fully open-source project, lets Claude Code or Codex take apart any app down to the binary and explain exactly how a feature works — native apps, Electron apps, websites, APKs, firmware, even smart contract bytecode.
- It shows evidence for every claim, then builds its own version of the feature. It pulled 25,000+ GitHub stars in a single day.
