craft-anything: Rust open-source tool observes closed software internals and auto-generates native clones, 3.5k stars in days
udmrzn · x · 2026-11-03
craft-anything, a Rust open-source project that hit 3.5k GitHub stars within days, aims to go beyond IDA Pro/Ghidra-style disassembly: it sandbox-runs unknown apps to auto-capture syscalls, memory state-machine transitions and private network protocols, reconstructs business architecture diagrams via a symbolic execution engine, and pairs with coding agents to emit modular specs and native clone code. The author claims multi-day manual reverse-engineering jobs can drop to minutes. Dual Apache-2.0/MIT licensed, low memory footprint, with multilingual docs.
