REA 'Reverse Engineer Anything' tops GitHub trending, letting Claude Code and Codex decompile any app
blaizedsouza · x · 2026-10-15
Voxyz recommends adding REA (Reverse Engineer Anything) to Claude Code or Codex: spot a feature you like in another app, have your agent take it apart to see how it's built, then build your own version. REA hands agents purpose-built tools for taking software apart, working layer by layer with source attribution for each finding, and supports desktop apps, websites and Android apps. Example questions include how a notes app shows search results instantly and why Notion-copied text keeps formatting. The repo has been #1 on GitHub's daily trending for two days running and passed 60K stars (the page now shows 259K stars, 65.1K forks).
