+description: Prepare or rewrite REA release changelogs and GitHub release notes from pinned Git history, with verified contributor thanks and Release Please synchronization.
+---
+
+# REA changelog update
+
+Use this for release-note preparation and contributor attribution. Read
+[docs/releasing.md](../../../docs/releasing.md) from the repository root for
+publication authority and the existing checkpoint checks. This skill prepares
+notes; it does not authorize merging, tagging, or publishing.
+
+## Inventory before prose
+
+Fetch complete history and tags. Select the published baseline tag from
+`.release-please-manifest.json` on the release PR's **base branch**, and pin that
+branch's exact SHA as the editorial target. REA tags are `rea-agents-VERSION`.
+Use the proposed version, including its prerelease suffix; do not change the
+`always-bump-minor` strategy to imitate OpenClaw's calendar versions.
+
+```bash
+node scripts/release-notes.mjs inventory \
+  --repository morluto/rea --base rea-agents-PREVIOUS \
+  --target FULL_BASE_BRANCH_SHA --version VERSION \
+  --manifest /tmp/rea-VERSION.contributions.json
+node scripts/release-notes.mjs record \
+  --manifest /tmp/rea-VERSION.contributions.json \
+  --summary \
+  --output /tmp/rea-VERSION.record.md
+```
+
+Read the inventory, not just the existing bot draft. It includes side-branch
+commits, GitHub-associated PRs whose merge commits are in the range, commit
+authors/co-authors, and confirmed closing issues with their reporters. GitHub
+connections are paginated. Network errors stop generation; rerun into a new
+output file after recovery. Existing output files are never overwritten.
+
+Unresolved commit identities are retained as names/emails with `user: null`;
+never guess a handle or thank the merger as a substitute. The report preserves
+unknowns. This is a reviewed metadata snapshot, not independent proof that a
+human authored a patch. For unattributed identities, unusual merge strategies,
+backports, reversions, or references that GitHub did not associate, inspect
+the source PRs and diffs and report the limitation. The current collector uses
+confirmed PR-closing relationships for issue-reporter credit; unrelated issue
+mentions are not automatically credited. Do not claim that merely inventoried
+work still ships after a revert.
+
+## Write for users and retain credit
+
+Rewrite only the newest `## [VERSION]` section in `CHANGELOG.md`, preserving its
+version/date/link heading. Use single-line Markdown list items under:
+
+- `### Highlights`: a few release-defining user outcomes; no quota for small releases.
+- `### Changes`: capabilities and meaningful behavior changes.
+- `### Fixes`: reliability, correctness, compatibility, and safety fixes.
+- `### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES`: retain when applicable, with migrations and original
+  PR/commit references required by the existing checkpoint validator.
+
+Group related work by analyst workflow or user impact. Explain the resulting
+behavior in short, concrete entries. Highlights summarize the release; avoid
+repeating their full descriptions in Changes. Internal cleanup, tests, CI, and
+routine documentation generally belong only in the provenance file. Read ambiguous PRs/diffs before making
+claims. Distinguish simulated-provider checks from real-provider verification.
+
+Credit each represented contribution once in the public notes with its link
+and `Thanks @...` for its verified human author, known co-authors, and confirmed
+closing-issue reporters. Grouping preserves all those credits in one line.
+When Highlights, detailed entries or migrations reference the same work,
+put its thanks in one of those entries, not all of them. Include issue links.
+Direct-commit bullets carry the commit link and known human credit.
+Exclude GitHub bots and known agent accounts. REA's observed Anthropic and
+Cursor co-author trailers resolve to `@claude` and `@cursoragent` with GitHub
+type `User`; the credit policy excludes them while retaining their metadata.
+At the REA maintainer's request, omit `@morluto` self-thanks while preserving
+authorship in the inventory. Other human contributors remain eligible.
+Use explicit GitHub links for cross-repository references to avoid ambiguous
+`#NNN` numbers. Unknown handles stay unknown; they are not fabricated credit.
+
+Append the generated `record --summary` provenance link verbatim at the end
+of this release. The linked inventory accounts for every discovered in-range
+PR and direct contribution, including internal work omitted from the prose.
+Do not paste the full `record` output into public notes: it duplicates thanks
+and obscures the user-facing changes. Full records remain available for review.
+Do not hand-edit generated credits to make validation pass. Refresh the inventory
+when product history changes; a prose-only correction can reuse the snapshot.
+
+## Finalize with Release Please
+
+Before changing the live release PR, have authorization for that PR update.
+Local preparation and validation can proceed independently.
+
+1. Add `rea:release-notes-finalized` to the selected open release PR **before**
+   editing its branch/body. Main proposal pushes respect this label. This is
+   our workflow guard, not Release Please's `autorelease: snooze` mechanism.
+   A proposal already running must finish before editing. Do not dispatch
+   manual preparation over finalized notes.
+2. On that release branch, save the reviewed inventory as
+   `docs/releases/VERSION.contributions.json`. This is durable public release
+   provenance, not a temporary planning file. Do not add credentials or local
+   environment dumps. Keep the existing version artifacts aligned.
+3. Run the existing checkpoint validator and the new checker:
+
+   ```bash
+   node scripts/release-notes.mjs check \
+     --manifest docs/releases/VERSION.contributions.json
+   node scripts/release-notes.mjs render \
+     --manifest docs/releases/VERSION.contributions.json \
+     --output /tmp/rea-VERSION.notes.md
+   ```
+
+   The checker supports inline PR bodies, including their surrounding metadata,
+   up to GitHub's 65,536-character limit. It fails on larger notes rather than
+   truncating credit; Release Please's overflow-link bodies are not integrated.
+
+4. Update the release PR body with the rendered section while preserving its
+   Release Please header/footer and component/version structure. Use a body
+   file for `gh pr edit --body-file`; changing only `CHANGELOG.md` does not
+   change Release Please's release body. Push only authorized changes.
+5. Freshly fetch the PR body to a file and run `check --pr-body FILE`. Review
+   the complete diff and wait for current CI. Publication checks the body
+   again before release creation. Avoid further body edits while publishing.
+
+The finalization label freezes bot refreshes, not main. New product changes
+after the inventory target require refreshing the notes before publication.
+The workflow checks target ancestry and allows only release metadata paths
+after that target. It also requires the inventory target to equal the reviewed
+merge's first parent, so intervening main commits require a fresh inventory.
+Review diffs within the allowed release metadata paths too: the path guard does
+not prove that package dependency/script edits are version-only changes.
+To resume automatic proposals, remove the finalization label and let the bot
+regenerate; expect editorial changes to be replaced.
+
+Existing releases without a contribution inventory retain their current
+publication path. Never retag or republish a package to correct release prose.

+name: rea-ci-tests-audit
+description: Audit REA CI and test suites for correctness, fixture drift, false passes, and measured performance; use for suite or workflow investigations and efficiency changes, rather than ordinary feature testing or a single test failure.
+---
+
+# REA CI and tests audit
+
+Establish which checks still catch real regressions and which costs can be
+removed without losing that protection. The outcome may be a verified fix,
+an evidence-backed recommendation, or an explicit decision to stop.
+
+Follow the checkout's `AGENTS.md`, [testing guide](../../../docs/testing.md),
+and [contribution rules](../../../CONTRIBUTING.md). Use their current commands
+and pinned toolchain, rather than commands remembered from an earlier audit.
+Preserve the requested scope: investigation alone does not authorize edits;
+this skill does not grant permission to publish issues, push, or merge. Existing
+user authorization still applies. Keep audit notes and raw results outside the
+tracked tree, normally in a task-specific `/tmp` directory.
+
+## Establish the executed baseline
+
+Fetch when the user asks for latest main. Pin the baseline SHA and inspected
+workflow revision; use an isolated worktree when changing or comparing code.
+Do not modify another task's checkout. Record dirty changes and the exact
+command, toolchain, host, selected tests, instrumentation, and prerequisites.
+An old run is evidence for its executed revision, even if main advances.
+
+Trace workflow triggers, changed-path selection, job dependencies, reusable
+actions, package scripts, test discovery, artifact producers, and report gates
+through to the commands that actually execute. Include scripts, generated data,
+runtime registration, and subprocess boundaries missing from import graphs.
+Check positive and negative selection paths: required files must be discovered
+once per intended test configuration; deliberate platform/configuration repeats
+are separate coverage. A missing explicit test or missing required report must
+not turn green. Optional lanes may skip; preserve their stated prerequisites.
+
+Use existing timing and failure artifacts to select suspicious families. Run
+relevant checks to establish a baseline; reserve a full local suite for broad
+CI diagnosis or uncertainty that focused checks cannot resolve. Do not rebuild
+or rerun an unchanged complete suite after every documentation edit.
+
+## Prove the failure or protection
+
+For each candidate, state the expected observable behavior and its owner,
+then construct the smallest reproduction against production behavior. Follow
+the producer and affected consumers before deciding where to fix it.
+
+- For drift, compare fixtures with current admission requirements, protocol
+  replies, named contracts, tool versions, and actual public entrypoints. A
+  plausible-looking mock can fail before the behavior its test claims to cover.
+  Search the whole affected fixture family, including other version strings.
+  Preserve intentionally malformed fixtures and test their intended rejection.
+- For a suspicious green test, perturb the relevant behavior in an isolated
+  copy or inject a controlled failure. Verify that the existing assertion or
+  gate detects it. A test may merely repeat its mock, import abandoned code,
+  or hide a subprocess/checker failure. Restore mutations after the experiment.
+- For shared setup or pruning, map distinct assertions to their retained
+  scenarios. Preserve malformed inputs, cancellation, cleanup failure,
+  permissions, capacity, identity, and meaningful concurrency interactions.
+  A faster run that skips a case or weakens its oracle is not an improvement.
+- For provider coverage, separate fake-producer, boundary, and actual-engine
+  evidence. Inspect named skips and prerequisites; fixtures do not establish
+  real Ghidra, LLDB, browser, or other provider behavior.
+
+Classify findings as reproduced defects, supported costs, hypotheses, or
+unavailable evidence. Record the baseline command, observed output/exit status,
+expected result, affected scope, and competing explanation. A failure on main
+may be pre-existing; that does not by itself make it irrelevant to a CI audit.
+Attribute PR failures using the executed revision and a clean baseline, not
+just their resemblance to a previous failure. Retry only to test a specific
+transient explanation; retain the original failure and stop when repetition
+adds no evidence. A passing retry does not establish a root cause or a fix.
+
+## Assess efficiency without losing the gate
+
+Read [measurement and CI checks](references/measurement-and-ci.md) when
+investigating slowness, caching, runner waits, shared artifacts, or log noise.
+Compare equivalent completed work before claiming a speedup. Distinguish
+setup/build time, test execution, coverage instrumentation, dependency waits,
+and runner scheduling; state which costs remain unmeasured.
+
+Prefer removing proven duplicate preparation, reusing immutable setup, and
+reducing repeated subprocess work before shrinking correctness coverage.
+Preserve independent sessions where lifecycle or concurrency is the oracle.
+Keep live tests fresh; a cached previous pass cannot validate current host,
+installed provider contents, permissions, or external state.
+
+## Fix, verify, and hand off within scope
+
+If implementation is authorized, make the smallest structural change at the
+owning boundary and add a regression that fails on the baseline for the right
+reason. Retest affected consumers and meaningful negative paths; verify cache
+invalidation or discovery when those mechanisms change. Read the installed
+Turbo documentation before changing its configuration or commands.
+
+Run the repository's applicable checks and inspect complete current-head CI
+results before an authorized merge. Preserve required coverage and discovery
+gates. Do not suppress a failure, add blanket retries, raise timeouts, or delete
+distinct assertions solely to make CI green. Changes to these controls need
+their own demonstrated reason and retained failure detection.
+
+Report each confirmed issue with exact revision, reproduction, consequence,
+proposed correction, and validation limits. Report performance with workload
+and measurements, not just a percentage. Use English issue/PR records when
+requested; follow the user's assignment, commit identity, review, and merge
+preferences without assuming them for other users. Open ready-for-review PRs
+only when that lifecycle is authorized. Resolve necessary review findings and
+check final main against the tested tree after merging.
+
+Stop when the authorized work is verified, remaining benefits are unproven,
+or further changes would trade correctness for speculative speed. List genuine
+uncertainties without turning them into additional optimization rounds.

+# Measurement and CI checks
+
+## Equivalent completed work
+
+Record the source/workflow SHA, command, test identities and counts, skips,
+assertions or output contract, exit status, coverage scope and thresholds,
+toolchain/provider versions, host resources, and prepared artifacts. Inspect
+both the child result and its report: a profiling wrapper may exit successfully
+after the measured command failed. Focused tests can pass while global coverage
+thresholds fail; describe both rather than calling the command green.
+
+Measure wall time, user/system CPU, and peak process-family memory for relevant
+completed tasks. Parent-only RSS misses workers and their children. On Linux,
+summed RSS can double-count shared pages; report RSS/PSS semantics, sampling
+interval, missing samples, and observed cleanup limits. Use equivalent host
+tools elsewhere. State unknown costs, including agent tokens; fewer log bytes
+alone prove neither fewer tokens nor faster tests.
+
+Separate cold execution, warm build/file caches, and warm runtime caches.
+Use repeated or alternating runs when variance affects the decision, with
+enough observations to distinguish the proposed benefit from noise. Keep
+workload, instrumentation, and host conditions comparable; record interference.
+A run with fewer tests, early rejection, lost coverage, or a different runner
+does not prove suite acceleration. CI-wide claims need end-to-end measurements,
+not an extrapolation from one improved family.
+
+## Workflow, caches, and shared artifacts
+
+Trace each reused result from producer to consumers and identify its lifetime.
+Check key/input coverage against the actual file inventory and result-affecting
+configuration, environment, generated data, tool versions, and host state.
+Exercise an affected input change to prove invalidation; exercise an irrelevant
+change to support reuse where useful. Cache deterministic preparation and
+static analysis only when their inputs fully describe the result.
+
+Verify downloaded artifacts match the expected revision, platform, runtime,
+and schema. Check restore misses, failed/partial producers, stale reports,
+removed output files, and consumers after producer failures. Shared writers
+need output ownership or locks; tests need isolated state, not an unnecessary
+global lock. Worker counts do not bound children spawned within each test.
+Preserve intentionally concurrent scenarios while bounding unrelated batches.
+
+Check matrix expansion and all job pages before saying CI passed. Inspect
+required gates after failed, cancelled, and skipped dependencies. `always()`
+alone does not preserve failures; inspect the aggregation logic. Test/report
+uploads should retain available diagnostics after failure, while absent or
+malformed required results must fail closed. Do not demand an optional report
+from a lane intentionally excluded by the selector.
+
+## Runner waits and console noise
+
+Use per-job and per-step timestamps where available. Workflow creation to job
+start includes dependencies and other delays; it is not necessarily runner
+queue time. Identify when the job became eligible before attributing waits to
+runner capacity. If eligibility/queue timestamps are unavailable, report the
+combined delay and unknown split. Compare equivalent lanes and runner types
+across enough runs; a single busy runner is not a workflow regression.
+
+For console reductions, retain checker exit codes, actionable errors, useful
+summary counts, and complete machine-readable artifacts. Verify authored code
+remains in the actual checker inventory when excluding generated outputs.
+Introduce an authored error as a control; it must still fail. An ignore pattern
+can hide real source as well as noise. Show that cached reports are restored,
+stale successful reports cannot mask current failures, and report parse errors
+remain failures. Measure readability or byte reduction separately from runtime.

+
+# REA
+
+Use REA when a claim depends on a shipped binary or package, decompilation,
+passive application runtime evidence, or comparison with
+behavior not established by available source. For ordinary analysis of a
+complete source repository, use normal repository tools and do not run REA
+readiness or provider commands.
+
+## Connect only when needed
+
+Installing this skill supplies instructions; it does not register the REA MCP
+server, install analysis engines, or add tools to an already-running agent.
+
+If REA tools are available and their registration is not known to be stale,
+proceed directly to the target. Do not run diagnostics or setup before every
+investigation. Use the connected server's actual tool list and input schemas;
+a skill installed from repository main may describe capabilities absent from
+an older npm release. Keep complete inline Evidence when that server does not
+advertise retained references.
+
+If tools are absent, a call is blocked by the client, or a required provider is
+unavailable, read [connection and recovery](references/connection-and-recovery.md).
+Diagnose the observed blocker, continue useful supported work, and resume the
+original task after repair. Client approval, shell PATH, registration and engine
+availability have different remedies; avoid repeating setup for all of them.
+
+Prefer an existing `rea` CLI. When none is installed and REA package acquisition
+is within the authorized scope, use `npx -y rea-agents@latest` in its place.
+Configuration repair starts with a read-only setup plan; show paths, backups and
+skill replacement before applying authorized changes. Preserve existing approval
+and target-execution boundaries. REA setup never installs or upgrades unrelated
+software, including Node.js, npm, Homebrew, Java, Ghidra, IDA, JADX, Binwalk or Unblob.
+
+## Route the target first
+
+Choose the first tool from the target the user supplied. Use `open_binary` for
+active-target native or archive workflows; target-free tools take their own
+explicit path or endpoint and do not need it.
+
+- ASAR or extracted JavaScript/Electron tree:
+  `analyze_javascript_application`.
+- Archive/package member inventory (ZIP/APK/IPA/MSIX/AppX or DMG):
+  `open_binary` with the supplied local path; use `inspect_artifact` when its
+  graph and findings help answer the question.
+- Android APK code, classes, methods, or incoming references:
+  `inspect_android_package`, then focused Android tools when advertised.
+  Archive member inventory still uses the archive route above.
+- Managed PE/CLI assembly: `inspect_managed_artifact`.
+- Firmware image: `inspect_firmware_regions` when advertised. Use
+  `extract_firmware` when extraction is requested, with a caller-selected new
+  absolute output directory. These tools use caller-supplied Binwalk/Unblob on
+  Linux; see the [firmware guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/firmware-analysis.md).
+- .NET NativeAOT PE/ELF: native Ghidra analysis. Native code can yield pseudocode;
+  consult the NativeAOT workflow in `references/native-and-artifacts.md` for
+  optional metadata recovery and its supported host/layout boundary.
+- User-owned browser page already open: `list_browser_targets`.
+- Fiddler Everywhere traffic or a native `.saz` capture: read the
+  [Fiddler workflow](references/runtime-observation.md#fiddler-everywhere-traffic-debugging).
+  Inspect saved SAZ with `inspect_web_network_capture` and `format: "saz"`;
+  connect Everywhere's separate MCP server for live traffic.
+- Retained HAR/SAZ/native mitmproxy/aioquic qlog capture: `inspect_web_network_capture`. Select
+  original record ordinals when useful; inspect producer fields and byte/number
+  sidecars without fetching recorded URLs or claiming live attribution. See
+  [historical captures](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/web-network-captures.md) for the exact upstream
+  profile and credential exclusions. Qlog support starts with aioquic 1.5.0
+  JSON 0.3; stream coverage and endpoint loss declarations do not recover bodies
+  or establish network loss. Prefer detail summary, then kind qlog trace/stream
+  pages; select one trace, stream ID and direction for contribution/range pages.
+  Facts retain all-recorded-events-before-selection scope. Other qlog layouts
+  and PCAP correlation are unsupported.
+- User-owned Electron runtime already open: `list_electron_targets`.
+- Packet-field discovery: `inspect_packet_fields` searches installed protocols
+  and field names/types before choosing fields for `inspect_packet_capture`.
+  Query/page the relevant records; registrations do not establish observed traffic.
+- Recorded packet captures: `inspect_packet_capture` with selected TShark fields,
+  display filters and decode-as rules. Requires Linux, util-linux prlimit and `REA_TSHARK_COMMAND`; see
+  [capture guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/packet-captures.md).
+  Packet limits count input packets before filtering. Output defaults to 50 matching
+  frames; use `match_offset` / `match_limit` for later pages, or explicit null
+  limit for complete matching output. Preserve the source digest across pages.
+  This does not perform live capture.
+  For address/DNS/SNI/protocol summaries use `inspect_pcap_capture` with MCP
+  detail summary, then retained kind pcap pages. Requires Wireshark 4.x tshark
+  and capinfos, with Linux prlimit or Windows Job Objects; see
+  [packet summaries](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/pcap-analysis.md).
+  Select an exact DNS question for address pages; page exhaustion does not prove
+  network completeness. This reads recordings and does not acquire traffic.
+- Decoder discovery: `inspect_signal_decoders` searches installed decoder IDs
+  or selected decoder help, including channels and options. Query and page the
+  relevant details before choosing settings; this does not scan hardware.
+- Recorded logic/signal traces: `decode_signal_recording` with explicit decoder,
+  channel and protocol settings. On Linux with util-linux prlimit, supply sigrok-cli 0.7.2 through
+  `REA_SIGROK_COMMAND`; see [recording guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/signal-recordings.md).
+  Output defaults to 50 literal lines; select annotation classes and page with
+  `line_offset` / `line_limit`, or explicit null for all remaining output.
+  Window counts are display lines, not annotations or samples. Preserve source digests across pages.
+  This reads existing files; it does not acquire hardware signals.
+- Explicit local WebAssembly artifact: `inspect_wasm_artifact`. Supply WABT 1.0.42
+  through `REA_WABT_BIN_DIRECTORY`; retain exact byte/tool identity and decoded WAT.
+  Select JavaScript glue and candidate paths explicitly and preserve URL/path
+  ambiguity. No implicit fetch or target execution; WAT is not original source.
+  See the [WASM guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/wasm-artifacts.md).
+- Explicit local EVM bytecode carrier: `inspect_evm_interface` with caller-selected
+  `raw` or `hex` encoding. Preserve carrier/decoded digests and treat selectors,
+  argument strings and mutability as inferred candidates; this performs no chain
+  lookup or target execution. For the complete inferred interface without hex or
+  duplicate stdout, discover support and select `detail: "summary"`; complete
+  Evidence stays retained under its original identity. Use the returned
+  `parent_evidence_id` for exact function or `bytecode_hex`/stdout/stderr pages.
+  Candidate coverage does not establish interface completeness. See the
+  [EVM bytecode guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/evm-bytecode.md).
+- Embedded Go compiler, module or build-setting metadata: `inspect_go_binary`
+  with the explicit local file. This built-in target-free inspection requires no
+  Go installation or disassembler. Preserve raw module bytes and source ranges;
+  absent metadata does not prove a binary is not Go, and unparsed text records
+  remain explicit. See the
+  [Go binary guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/go-binaries.md).
+
+- Explicit local SQLite database snapshot: `inspect_sqlite_database`. Inspect
+  with Node.js 24.x >=24.15 or 26+ providing native SQLite limits. Read schema
+  first (compact inventory by default), or select an exact ordinary table
+  and `columns` when rows are needed. Defaults are selected-table schema and
+  20 rows; request `schema_scope: "database"` for the complete stored schema. Preserve both database and existing sibling WAL identity; row samples
+  report truncation and have unspecified order. Use a quiescent snapshot rather
+  than assuming a live database/WAL pair was copied atomically. See the
+  [SQLite guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/sqlite-databases.md).
+- Explicit Linux ELF file for offline layout, symbols, relocations or static
+  mitigation evidence: `inspect_binary_layout`. This target-free operation uses
+  caller-supplied pwntools without opening a disassembler database. Preserve its
+  raw locations and inference/coverage limits; see the
+  [offline binary guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/binary-diagnostics.md).
+- Supplied Linux x86-64 ELF core: `inspect_recorded_crash`. Read every recorded
+  thread, raw note and source-bound register without opening a live target.
+  Historical PIDs do not select live processes. Request `include_debugger_context`
+  only when core-only mapping candidates help; see the
+  [recorded crash guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/recorded-crashes.md).
+- PE resource type/name/language trees and static icon group references:
+  `inspect_pe_resources` with an explicit path. This portable operation requires
+  no active target or engine; opaque payloads retain file ranges and SHA-256.
+- Native executable, library, or analysis database: `open_binary`, then
+  use focused analysis tools directly; call `binary_overview` when metadata or
+  inventory context is useful and available from the selected provider.
+
+For an existing IDA MCP configuration, use `open_binary` with the original
+input binary and `provider_id: "ida"`; do not pass an `.idb` or `.i64` database.
+The legacy attached profile binds the already-open GUI input by SHA-256 and
+leaves its database open. The modern headless profile creates and closes an
+owned private database without saving. Installation and registration reuse
+[mrexodia/ida-pro-mcp](https://github.com/mrexodia/ida-pro-mcp); see the
+[IDA provider guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/ida-provider.md).
+Proceed directly to `analyze_function`, pseudocode, or function/string searches
+after opening; IDA does not supply `binary_overview`. Consult session availability
+when composing broader workflows. Modern direct callers and unsupported dossier
+facets remain unknown; live IDA results are not replayed from snapshots.
+
+If the user says only "my app" without a name, path, or target already selected
+for this task, ask which app before searching for artifacts. Paths in unrelated
+saved reports and nearby test fixtures do not select the user's target. Resolve
+an actual human-readable app name to one clear installed artifact when possible;
+ask when matches are ambiguous. Never choose an example app on the user's behalf.
+
+In a target-free session, use `open_binary` to bind any archive/package or
+native target whose analysis tool operates on the active target. Do not call an
+unadvertised tool; inspect `binary_session` with `{}` and its
+`result.tool_availability` for availability reasons and remediation. Expand each
+group's `names` into entries, inheriting the inventory-level client requirements
+unless the group overrides them. In its closed effect and annotation vocabularies,
+listed flags are true and omitted known flags are false. The grouped name union
+is the complete tool inventory; use `tools/list` for canonical tool schemas.
+Provider candidate facts describe possible providers, while top-level session
+capabilities describe the current route and `analysis_provider_binding` names the
+selected provider. Do not treat those scopes as interchangeable.
+
+## Work summary-first
+
+Start with the default result and use its inline Evidence and graph context.
+For a JavaScript application or ELF layout whose size is unknown or large,
+call `analyze_javascript_application` or `inspect_binary_layout` with
+`"detail": "summary"`, then inspect the retained `parent_evidence_id` with
+`inspect_analysis_view`.
+Page module identities and select the returned `node_id` before requesting an
+item; a single file path can represent several graph roles. Do not repeat an
+identical analysis or rejected call without a changed input or resolved blocker.
+Recheck session state when a lifecycle change makes that status useful.
+Make a focused follow-up only when the
+returned result leaves a specific question unanswered.
+
+If MCP reports `resource_constraint` with `details.resource: "transport"`, call
+`inspect_analysis_view` with its reported same-session Evidence reference for a
+summary, one section/module, or a stable page. Use `trace_application_feature`
+once a seed is known, or call `export_evidence_bundle` to write the complete
+session to a selected path. The analysis remains complete in the ledger; avoid
+repeating it merely to request the same oversized response. Complete CLI JSON
+output also streams without a single MCP frame.
+
+When the retained parent ID is unknown, use `get_evidence_bundle` with
+`detail: "summary"` and exact filters for operation, target SHA-256,
+analysis-profile digest or canonical procedure address. Select its returned
+Evidence ID for the next view instead of requesting the complete bundle.
+`retention: "complete-record"` means the whole record is stored; native
+value-flow truncation and unknown metadata remain separate. For an exported
+portable bundle, use `rea inspect-evidence-bundle` with JSON containing `path`,
+`detail: "summary"` and the same `filters`. Reading that file still requires
+validating its full contents within the local memory budget.
+
+A client can also truncate a successful tool result without a REA transport
+error. Treat that preview as incomplete; use the retained parent ID for smaller
+views or export when the full record is needed. Do not parse the preview as
+canonical JSON or repeat the producer. For JavaScript, read the
+[module-view and trace recipes](references/javascript-applications.md) before
+drilling into a large graph; a broad bidirectional trace can expand unrelated
+containment relationships even after summary analysis.
+
+Every conclusion must distinguish observations, inferences, and unknowns. Cite
+Evidence IDs, preserve limitations and incomplete coverage, and never imply
+that static analysis observed execution. Runtime requests execute the declared
+target and lifecycle; do not broaden the target or action beyond those fields.
+
+Within the user's requested investigation, call available analysis tools
+directly. REA does not require permission grants or per-call approval flags.
+The agent client can independently require approval. Follow the declared request
+scope and the host's actual access requirements; use the recovery guide for an
+observed client-policy rejection.
+
+## Plan broader investigations
+
+For requests that span multiple features or subsystems, use a staged workflow:
+
+1. Turn the request into a checklist of questions and the evidence each answer
+   needs. Resolve target identity and constraints from the conversation and
+   workspace before asking for information again.
+2. Inspect the current REA session, artifact identity, saved analysis database,
+   bookmarks, and prior evidence. Reuse matching state; do not open duplicate
+   sessions or repeat identical analysis.
+3. Start with the smallest useful overview or inventory. Follow each question
+   from its entry point through relevant data and state changes to its result.
+   Batch related operations around a specific hypothesis, then expand only when
+   the returned evidence leaves a concrete gap.
+4. Inspect relevant packaged resources and configuration alongside code when
+   they affect the question. Use format-aware inventory and parsers; do not
+   infer behavior from filenames, strings, or layout alone.
+5. Corroborate a conclusion with the evidence type it requires. Use runtime
+   observation only when static evidence cannot answer the question and the
+   required host runtime and OS access are available. For JavaScript behavior,
+   run probes against the actual app through the available browser, Electron,
+   or process capture workflow.
+6. Decompose work into independent questions. When parallel workers are
+   available and the questions do not depend on one another, assign distinct
+   scopes, point workers to existing evidence, and ask them to return sources,
+   conclusions, and unresolved gaps. Otherwise, work sequentially.
+7. Keep a concise finding ledger linking each conclusion to Evidence IDs,
+   confidence/evidence type, search boundary, and remaining unknowns. Update
+   the shared index or investigation report so later passes can reuse results.
+
+Before finishing, revisit the original checklist. Mark each question as
+answered, partially answered, or unresolved based on its evidence; keep
+bounded negative searches bounded, and do not describe a broad investigation
+as complete while required questions remain open.

+If the client cannot launch its shell/sandbox helper or read the installed skill,

+directory. REA setup cannot repair the client's executor. Preserve the sandbox
+instead of silently disabling it to make an analysis command work.
+
+Static JavaScript and ordinary ZIP inventory need neither Hopper nor Ghidra.
+HAR inspection is offline and does not require a live browser. Native
+decompilation, Android analysis and firmware extraction have their own
+bring-your-own prerequisites. Use supported inventory/static evidence when it
+answers part of the question, and name the unavailable evidence separately.
+Do not substitute another target. Label observations from ordinary shell tools
+as such; only actual REA output supplies REA Evidence.
+
+## Repair registration when needed
+
+For Codex:
+
+```bash
+rea doctor --client codex --json
+rea setup --client codex --dry-run --json
+```
+
+Use the current supported client's ID: `claude_code`, `claude_desktop`, `codex`,
+`cursor`, `gemini_cli`, `windsurf`, `devin`, `opencode`, `antigravity`,
+`copilot_cli`, `commandcode`, `qwen_code`, `vscode`, `trae`, `grok_build`, `omp`, `pi`,
+`hermes`, `qoder`, `droid`, `zcode`, `dsh`, or `grok_bot`. If unknown, inspect `doctor --json` before choosing a
+scope. `grok_bot` uses a chat registration step rather than local `mcp.json`.
+For unsupported clients, use version-pinned manual stdio registration or CLI.
+
+Show the plan's exact paths, backups, changes and bundled-skill replacement.
+Obtain approval for writes when that concrete scope is not already authorized,
+then apply the same scope with `rea setup --client codex --yes`. Add
+`--install-hopper` only when separately needed and explicitly approved. Do not
+install or upgrade unrelated prerequisites. Restart/reconnect, verify tools
+actually appear, and resume the original task. If they remain absent, inspect
+the launch failure rather than looping through setup.
+
+## Codex tool approval is separate from REA readiness
+
+REA tools have no permission-grant handshake. Codex can still require approval
+because an operation creates owned resources, launches a helper or has cleanup
+effects. An advertised tool or successful doctor result does not override that
+client policy. `workspace-write` alone does not resolve an MCP approval
+rejection, and `approval_policy = "never"` does not mean every MCP tool is
+preapproved.
+
+When interactive approval is available, use the client's approval flow for the
+requested operation. In an unattended run, continue through an authorized CLI
+workflow if the execution environment permits it, or report the blocked
+operation and the approval needed to proceed. Do not retry the same rejected
+call, silently broaden approvals, or rewrite MCP effects as read-only.
+
+For an operator who explicitly wants to preapprove named operations in a
+disposable Codex profile, current Codex supports per-tool configuration. For
+example, opening and closing an analysis session can be scoped independently:
+
+```toml
+[mcp_servers.rea.tools.open_binary]
+approval_mode = "approve"
+
+[mcp_servers.rea.tools.close_binary]
+approval_mode = "approve"
+```
+
+Use the actual server ID and only the operations whose effects were approved;
+this example does not approve inspection, extraction or runtime execution.
+Show the proposed config edit and preserve unrelated entries and backups before
+writing. Managed policy can constrain client settings. Consult the
+[Codex configuration reference](https://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/config-file/config-reference)
+for the installed client's supported settings. This is an optional recovery
+choice, not a prerequisite for every REA task.
+
+## Continue through an installed CLI
+
+Check the command environment only if the launcher fails:
+
+```bash
+command -v rea
+command -v node
+node --version
+rea --version
+```
+
+Use the public launcher at its known installation path with a supported existing
+Node on PATH when the child shell loses a prefix installation. Avoid internal
+`dist/cli.js` entrypoints or global toolchain changes. MCP may have its own valid
+launcher even when a shell cannot resolve `rea`.
+
+For a user-supplied JavaScript tree or ASAR, select output files in the authorized
+workspace and save complete Evidence before reading a view:
+
+```bash
+rea analyze-javascript-application /absolute/path/to/app --json > app-evidence.json
+jq -c '{source: {kind: "inline", evidence: .}, view: {kind: "summary"}}' app-evidence.json > app-view.json
+rea inspect-analysis-view app-view.json
+```
+
+These commands do not register MCP or install an analysis engine. CLI JavaScript
+JSON is complete and can be very large; redirect it rather than loading it into
+context. Use an existing JSON processor if `jq` is absent, without installing
+one just for this recipe. Inspect a module page or item using the same inline
+source and the [JavaScript recipes](javascript-applications.md). Preserve graph
+coverage, limitations and unknowns. Native CLI analysis still requires its
+selected engine, and all CLI operations retain the host's execution permissions.

+Evidence-producing tools return the complete Evidence record directly in MCP
+`structuredContent` and CLI JSON. Read `normalized_result` for operation data,
+and cite `evidence_id` when another tool or your explanation needs a stable
+reference. Preserve authority, limitations, coverage, and residual unknowns. If a result
+is incomplete or paginated, continue only when the remaining data matters to
+the task; do not fetch a bundle or resource merely to read a result already
+returned inline. When complete `inspect_binary_layout` or
+`analyze_javascript_application` Evidence is already retained, call
+`inspect_analysis_view` for a summary, one section/symbol/module, or a stable
+page instead of repeating the producer.
+
+Completed `inspect_artifact` inventory also supports a summary and
+`view: {kind: "inventory", collection: "occurrences", logical_paths: ["package.json", "main.js"]}`.
+Omit `logical_paths` to page all available occurrences; `[]` selects none.
+Other inventory collections are `nodes`, `edges` and
+`integrity_contradictions`. Keep `source_complete` separate from page exhaustion:
+a missing match in partial source Evidence does not establish absence. Use the
+returned parent Evidence ID for subsequent views and export before closing the
+session when the source must survive it.
+When `tools/list` advertises `inspect_artifact.detail`, request `"summary"` to
+retain its complete source and receive that view immediately. Without that
+advertised choice, keep the existing complete call. CLI inspection returns
+portable complete Evidence; save it before projecting a selected inline view.
+
+Use `record_unknown` to track unresolved questions in the user's investigation
+and name the authority or environment still required. Supply supporting and
+contradicting evidence IDs. It updates the session registry directly.
+Use `update_unknown` with the current revision; reread after a stale revision
+instead of retrying blindly. Only qualifying observed evidence can verify a
+resolution.
+
+Use comparisons with complete, compatible page sets when claiming equivalence
+or absence:
+
+- `compare_artifacts` compares inventory pages by occurrence path, content,
+  metadata, and graph relations.
+- `compare_functions` compares explicit function Evidence, not fuzzy
+  whole-binary matches.
+- `compare_bundles` compares canonical bundle membership and unknown history.
+- `find_changed_behavior` combines existing comparisons; static differences
+  remain candidates, not causal proof.
+- `build_call_path` needs explicit function dossiers from one artifact/provider;
+  an incomplete frontier makes absence unknown.
+- `correlate_static_and_runtime` uses explicit mappings; matching patterns are
+  hypotheses, not causality.
+- `verify_reconstruction` evaluates a finite typed specification. A pass covers
+  only declared comparable claims, not global equivalence.
+
+Process captures are opt-in behavioral evidence, not a security sandbox. V3
+captures cannot be upgraded to V4; rerun the original scenario. Distinguish root
+exit from descendant settlement and require freshness when the task needs it.
+A timed-out target that must write a final report needs `finalization_ms`: REA
+sends SIGTERM to the captured root, keeps observing, and sends SIGKILL once

+`exit.finalization.signals` lists each attempt with its delivery result; the

+# JavaScript and Electron application artifacts
+
+For captured or bundled JavaScript that needs readable source recovery, use
+`recover_javascript_sources` with an absolute `path` and absent
+`output_directory`. Supply related runtime/shared/lazy files in
+`additional_paths` when advertised, then analyze the returned `analysis_input`
+directory together. Each input retains its own snapshot, digest and byte-range
+provenance; inputs and recovered code are never executed. Recovery requires a
+caller-supplied Wakaru on Linux x64; see [the recovery guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/javascript-recovery.md).
+
+Use `analyze_javascript_application` directly on the operator-supplied ASAR or
+extracted tree. When the question concerns known source paths and the connected
+schema advertises `source_paths`, select exact inventoried paths such as
+`["package.json", "main.js", "preload.js"]`. Include supporting manifests or
+source maps explicitly; dependencies are not implicitly analyzed. REA retains
+the complete artifact inventory and identity but reads source text and analyzes
+only selected files. The result and summary record `source_selection`; files
+outside scope and their relationships remain unknown, so partial application
+coverage does not mean the selected source failed. Use repeated `--source-path`
+on either static application CLI route. Omit the selection when the question
+requires complete application analysis. `detail: "summary"` reduces delivery
+and does not by itself reduce analysis work.
+
+Exact `#alias` specifiers resolve through the importer's
+enclosing package `imports` map to package-local files; nested `node_modules`
+packages use their own map. Wildcard, recursive, and external-package import
+targets stay unresolved with that limitation. When size is unknown or large and the connected schema advertises
+`detail`, request `detail: "summary"`. This returns an `inspect_analysis_view`
+Evidence record with a distinct ID and a `normalized_result.parent_evidence_id`
+for the complete retained application analysis. Source-map contents are part of
+that static analysis. Read findings, coverage, limitations and unknowns, then
+follow a specific unanswered question. Older servers without `detail` return
+the complete application Evidence inline when it fits.
+
+When the connected schema advertises `max_heap_mb` and `analysis_timeout_ms`,
+these select the isolated source analyzer's old-space heap and per-source
+deadline. Defaults are 1024 MiB and 300000 ms. They do not change the MCP
+process heap. A Bun-hosted REA does not enforce the heap choice; on Windows it
+instead limits the analyzer's committed memory to that choice plus a 512 MiB
+runtime reserve.
+Resource-limited analyses preserve completed static facts and
+report partial semantic coverage with specific unknown scopes; this does not
+mean the source is malformed. Inspect those limits before retrying a source.
+When expanded relationships exceed the parent's available memory, inspect the
+file's modules item view for retained `static_analysis` and
+`semantic_module_analysis`. Their facts remain available even when graph links
+are unknown. Cumulative result exhaustion can stop analysis before every file
+is examined; the inventory and remaining unknown scopes distinguish that case.
+Timeout or cancellation after source analysis begins retains partial Evidence
+in the same session. A returned `error.details.partial_observation` reference
+can be supplied directly to `inspect_analysis_view`. If the SDK cancels locally, retrieve its recorded ID from
+the Evidence bundle before inspecting the partial analysis.
+
+## Read a module without repeating analysis
+
+Use the actual returned parent ID, on the same connection, as `source.evidence_id`.
+The following IDs are placeholders to replace with returned values. When the
+module's node ID is not already known, page identities before selecting an item.
+Pages return only node IDs, paths and roles; choose a useful page size and follow
+`coverage.next_offset` when another page matters:
+
+```json
+{
+  "source": {
+    "kind": "retained-evidence",
+    "evidence_id": "ev_ACTUAL_PARENT_ID"
+  },
+  "view": { "kind": "page", "collection": "modules", "offset": 0, "limit": 16 }
+}
+```
+
+Select the relevant page entry by its exact `node_id` and recorded role:
+
+```json
+{
+  "source": {
+    "kind": "retained-evidence",
+    "evidence_id": "ev_ACTUAL_PARENT_ID"
+  },
+  "view": {
+    "kind": "item",
+    "collection": "modules",
+    "selector": { "node_id": "jag_node_ACTUAL_NODE_ID" }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Module pages include asset, bundled and source module roles, so one path can
+identify several entries. Use `selector.path` only when uniqueness is established;
+the returned node ID avoids needing a complete inventory to prove uniqueness. On ambiguity,
+select the matching node ID from the page or the error's candidates. Follow
+`next_offset` when another page matters. An item exposes that module node's
+recorded observations, identity, hashes, exports and source ranges; it does not
+include every child syntax observation, related edge or original source file.
+An absent item fact is not evidence of absence from the whole application.
+
+## Trace only the remaining question
+
+Use `trace_application_feature` on the parent application Evidence for one
+literal node ID, route, string, API, IPC channel, module, or native export.
+Select `incoming` for relationships leading to the seed, `outgoing` for those
+leaving it, and `both` when the question needs both. Trace traversal includes
+containment relationships, so even a narrow seed can expand many nodes; a
+bidirectional trace can reach unrelated sibling modules. A module item or page
+is preferable when its observations already answer the question. Do not treat
+all reached nodes as participants in the feature.
+
+Reuse retained parent Evidence when the server advertises it, or supply complete
+Evidence inline. Include Hopper or Ghidra Evidence only when its artifact digest
+matches exactly.
+
+## Recover an oversized display
+
+An oversized response reports `resource_constraint` and
+`details.resource: "transport"`. Reuse
+`details.reported_limits.evidence_reference` with `inspect_analysis_view` for a
+summary, one module, or a stable page of module identities.
+`export_evidence_bundle` writes the complete canonical session to a
+caller-selected file. These workflows keep the original Evidence and coverage;
+a broad follow-up can also exceed framing.
+
+A client can truncate a successful result inside its text envelope without a
+REA `resource_constraint`. Treat a truncation notice or incomplete JSON as a
+display limitation; do not claim the full record was examined. Reuse the known
+parent ID for smaller views, or export complete Evidence to a selected file
+while the session remains open. If the parent ID was lost from the preview,
+use the prior analysis summary or explicit ledger entries to recover it; do
+not invent an ID or rerun analysis just to reproduce the same display.
+
+BrowserWindow preferences, preload and contextBridge surfaces, IPC
+registrations, utility processes, and native binding requests are static syntax
+observations. Only a unique exact literal IPC channel match supports an inferred
+pairing. Dynamic or ambiguous channels remain unresolved. A requested `.node`
+member is not a verified native export. Never claim runtime reachability,
+registration, defaults, or policy enforcement from static analysis.
+
+For version comparison, analyze each version once, then call
+`compare_application_versions`. Accept only its digest, source-map, structural
+fingerprint, or non-module semantic matches. Module ordinals and minified names
+are not persistent identity. Report added or removed only with complete
+opposite-side coverage; otherwise report unknown.
+
+When the question asks how one exact exported callable's returned object shape
+changed, analyze each version once and then call
+`compare_javascript_export_shapes` with explicit module paths and export names.
+Use the returned IDs on the same connection, or complete inline Evidence
+records, from both analysis calls. Accept variant
+pairing only through the tool's unique exact literal discriminant. Read
+`property_inventories` and each change's `presence` before treating `unknown` as
+"the name was not observed": inventories list observed property names even when
+values stay unknown, with a `source_range` for each paired or unpaired variant.
+Array holes and mutation-invalidated slots are not observed properties.
+Complete parent coverage reports presence-only
+`added`/`removed` independently of unresolved values. Cite the
+comparison Evidence and report JSON Pointer changes; dynamic values, ambiguous
+variants, and incomplete parent-property coverage stay unknown. This is static
+inference, not runtime behavior. When runtime semantics are needed, run
+behavioral probes against the relevant application versions and capture them
+through the available browser, Electron, or process workflows.
+
+## Reusing application Evidence
+
+When advertised by the connected server, application trace and compare tools
+accept complete inline Evidence or
+`{"kind":"retained-evidence","evidence_id":"ev_<64 lowercase hex characters>"}`
+for their application input (`application`, or `left`/`right`). `inspect_analysis_view`
+uses the same retained-reference form in `source`, or portable inline Evidence,
+to project a summary, module page, or one module with its recorded observations. This notation is
+a template: replace it with the actual returned ID. Versions before 4.1.0 accept only full
+inline Evidence. Use the exact ID
+returned by the producer on the same MCP connection. Resolution does not run
+analysis or select a provider; findings remain inline. Native observation
+arrays still take full Evidence. `close_binary` clears retained references;
+export a bundle before closing, or supply portable inline Evidence in another
+connection. A missing reference includes its ID and recovery guidance.

+# Native, managed, and packaged artifacts
+
+## Go build metadata
+
+Use `inspect_go_binary` for an explicit local ELF, PE or thin Mach-O when the
+question concerns the embedded compiler version, module/dependency versions,
+local replacements or build settings. No `open_binary`, Go installation or
+target execution is required. The CLI equivalent is `inspect-go-binary PATH`.
+Preserve artifact SHA-256, original file ranges, framed module bytes and every
+unparsed module-text line. A missing record is an unknown, not proof of a
+non-Go binary; observed metadata does not authenticate its claims. Function,
+source and type recovery remain a separate native-analysis question.
+
+## SQLite snapshots
+
+Use `inspect_sqlite_database` with an explicit local database snapshot for its
+schema and optional rows from one exact ordinary table. It requires Node.js
+24.x >=24.15 or 26+ with the native `DatabaseSync.limits` API. It also consumes the
+existing sibling `-wal`; retain both original digests when citing its result.
+Default output is a compact inventory; a selected table expands only its own
+schema and samples 20 rows. Select `columns` to avoid irrelevant or large cells,
+and request `schema_scope: "database"` only for complete schema details.
+Choose `row_limit` when a finite sample is useful and keep truncation and
+unspecified row order explicit. Virtual tables, shadow tables and views are
+schema facts, not row-read targets. REA inspects private copies and leaves
+the source files untouched; obtain a coherent quiescent database/WAL snapshot
+before inspection. See [SQLite snapshots](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/sqlite-databases.md).
+
+## Recorded Linux crashes
+
+Use `inspect_recorded_crash` with an explicit Linux x86-64 ELF core path to
+inspect historical thread registers, signals, raw notes and original file
+ranges. It is independent of the active disassembler target. Source-bound
+register values and note bytes are observations; missing notes, signal-thread
+association and current executable/library identity remain unknown. PIDs are
+historical metadata and never authorize live attach or control.
+
+The optional `include_debugger_context` facet adds mapping candidates through
+caller-supplied GDB/pwndbg in an owned core-only session. Display names do not
+establish current file identity; zero reported flags leave permissions unknown.
+Requested unavailable context fails with setup guidance. See
+[recorded crashes](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/recorded-crashes.md)
+for exact upstream profiles, bounds and verification coverage.
+
+## Offline ELF layout
+
+Use `inspect_binary_layout` with an explicit local ELF path for file-backed
+sections, symbols, relocations, linkage names, and static mitigation inferences
+without opening a disassembler target. When that complete record is already
+retained, call `inspect_analysis_view` for a summary, mitigations or linkage
+facet, one section or symbol, or a stable page. Do not re-run the decoder to
+read a single object.
+
+## Offline WASM
+
+Use `inspect_wasm_artifact` with caller-supplied WABT for selected local bytes.
+For counts, validation and WAT identity, select `detail: "summary"` on the first
+MCP call. The complete original Evidence stays retained; use
+`normalized_result.parent_evidence_id` for exact exports or text pages. Omitted
+or complete detail keeps the existing complete result.
+For a completed result, use `inspect_analysis_view` with its reported retained
+reference for a summary or `view: {kind: "wasm", facet: "exports", offset: 0, limit: 32}`.
+Facets also include sections, imports, candidates, glue, WAT, headers, details
+and tool profile. Text offsets count UTF-16 code units; follow `next_offset`.
+The complete source remains retained after an oversized MCP reply. No target
+execution or network acquisition is implied, and WAT is decoded representation.
+
+## Native targets
+
+After `open_binary`, use focused search, procedure, or function tools directly.
+Use `binary_overview` when target metadata or inventory context helps answer the
+question. Prefer literal search, names, decompilation, callers, callees, and
+cross-references. Addresses and recovered pseudocode are analysis observations,
+not original source. Provider unavailability and unsupported metadata remain
+unknown rather than false.
+
+For a completed `analyze_function` dossier, use `inspect_analysis_view` with
+`view: {kind: "native", facet: "value_flow_operations", offset: 0, limit: 32}`
+and the exact retained Evidence ID to read selected facts without reanalysis.
+Native facets also include procedure, pseudocode, assembly, basic blocks,
+comments, callers/callees, references, unresolved calls, referenced strings and
+names, the native API record, and value-flow summaries. Pseudocode offsets and limits count UTF-16
+code units; use the returned `next_offset` for continuation. Provider limitations
+and unavailable facts remain explicit; the complete parent Evidence is retained.
+
+`inspect_macho` on a large framework returns megabytes of imports and exports.
+Select `detail: "summary"` for slice identity, UUID and per-collection counts,
+then page rows with `view: {kind: "macho", facet: "exports", offset: 0, limit: 64}`
+and `normalized_result.parent_evidence_id`. Facets are entrypoints,
+architectures, build_metadata, load_commands, dependencies, imports, exports,
+segments and provenance. `source_exhaustive: false` means unreturned symbols
+may exist.
+
+To see which functions or Objective-C methods a Mach-O actually calls in one
+run, use `observe_native_calls` with explicit breakpoints and a bounded
+`duration_ms`/`max_events`. It launches a new process under LLDB, so the target
+runs and may change files or use the network. Hardened-runtime targets need the
+`get-task-allow` entitlement.
+
+Use `binary_session` with no arguments to check the open target, selected
+provider, and alignment. Its default `result.tool_availability` carries a
+complete inventory grouped by shared facts. Expand each group's `names` and
+inherit the inventory-level client requirements unless a group overrides them;
+availability, reasons, remediation, modes, and flags remain inline. The
+`effects` and `annotations` arrays name true flags from fixed vocabularies, so an
+omitted known flag is false. `tools/list` remains the canonical source for full
+tool schemas when target or provider state changes.
+
+Provider capability groups carry provider identity and ordered limitations.
+Prepend each set's `shared_limitations` to a group's `limitations` to recover the
+operation's full ordered list. Candidate capabilities describe possible
+providers. Top-level session capabilities describe the current route, and
+`analysis_provider_binding` identifies the selected provider.
+
+## DOS MZ with Ghidra
+
+For an admitted DOS MZ target, use `inspect_native_load_image` to check measured
+loaded bytes, file mappings, relocations and the entry against the immutable
+snapshot. Keep `mismatch` and `unsupported` explicit. Verified import covers the
+reported static image, not runtime DOS or PC-98 hardware behavior.
+
+For Ghidra decompilation, `procedure_pseudo_code` also accepts `procedure: "file-offset:0x..."`; CLI `rea decompile <path> --file-offset=0x... --provider ghidra` resolves the source byte offset internally. An unresolved 0x-prefixed numeric procedure selector also falls back to a unique file mapping. Existing symbols and analysis addresses win; multiple mappings fail as ambiguous. Preserve the returned file-offset and address locations and raw selection observations. ELF virtual addresses are distinct from file offsets; never assume an arbitrary offset plus image base is an analysis address.
+
+Use `read_bytes` for initialized analysis memory and `address_to_file_offset` to
+anchor one observed address to original file bytes. Loader fixups can change a
+word; a source offset does not imply byte equality. Complete function body ranges
+use inclusive ends and can contain gaps. Do not treat the enclosing span as code.
+For packed targets, retain the original and separately derived artifact identities;
+decompiling an unpacking stub does not recover the unpacked program.
+
+When reading Objective-C dispatch metadata, distinguish class implementation
+methods from protocol requirements: class methods report null requirement
+flags, while decoded protocol declarations retain required and optional facts.
+Property attributes remain raw name/value tokens; use the property's
+`atomicity` field for the decoded `N` marker or the default atomic behavior.
+Null class/meta flags, ivar counts, atomicity, or read-only values mean the
+selected provider did not establish that fact. Symbol names alone do not prove
+that a class is a root class or has no ivars.
+
+## Managed PE/CLI
+
+Start with `inspect_managed_artifact`. REA's canonical managed inspection is
+execution-free: do not claim it loaded, reflected, executed, or resolved the
+assembly. Keep managed/native boundaries and unavailable reconstruction facts
+explicit. A bring-your-own reconstruction oracle is separate from the canonical
+parser and must not become an implicit setup dependency.
+
+For identity/classification questions, `inspect_managed_artifact` can explicitly
+select `detail: "summary"` on the first MCP call. It retains complete metadata
+and returns a linked overview with full classification/evidence, nullable
+module/MVID, frameworks, metadata coverage/issues/limitations and returned-row
+counts. Default complete requests remain unchanged. Read original rows with
+`inspect_analysis_view`, source `normalized_result.parent_evidence_id`, and
+`view: {kind: "managed", collection: "attributes", offset: 0, limit: 16}`.
+Collections are `references`, `resources` and `attributes`. Paging does not
+repeat parsing. Returned-row exhaustion
+does not prove complete metadata or absence under partial/unavailable coverage;
+preserve build-local tokens and their artifact/MVID scope.
+
+### .NET NativeAOT
+
+NativeAOT binaries contain native machine code, so ordinary CIL decompilers
+cannot recover the original method bodies. When managed metadata/CIL is absent,
+classify that as a native-analysis route rather than claiming source recovery.
+Open the native image with the selected deep provider and inspect functions,
+strings, calls, and references; describe decompiler output as pseudocode and
+inference.
+
+NativeAOT images can be PE/COFF, ELF, or Mach-O executables and shared
+libraries. Use file bytes and loader metadata rather than suffixes to identify
+them. For packaged apps, inventory/extract with REA's artifact tools and retain
+the exact contained image identity. PDB, ELF debug, or dSYM sidecars are
+additional evidence only when the provider accepts and matches them.
+
+REA has a built-in read-only snapshot parser for x64 PE targets with .NET 8 RTR
+9.1 metadata. An optional headless Ghidra adapter adds database annotations and
+broader metadata recovery on Linux; it requires an explicitly configured
+NativeAOT JAR. These are separate routes. The built-in parser also runs on
+Windows Ghidra P0; read frozen literals from its report, because
+`search_strings` does not include them. See the
+[NativeAOT guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/ghidra-nativeaot.md)
+for setup, supported layouts, and host restrictions. Preserve binary identity
+and distinguish derived metadata from Ghidra database observations. Recovered
+types and native pseudocode are not original C# source. Windows Ghidra P0 has
+no database mutation authority.
+
+## Packages and extraction
+
+Use `inspect_artifact` for application bundles, archives, ZIP/APK/IPA/MSIX/AppX,
+ASAR, or DMG inputs when the artifact graph and findings help answer the
+question. It returns the complete artifact graph inline. Cite graph manifest
+IDs when using them.
+
+For an IPA or a macOS `.app`, ZIP, or DMG, pass the inventory Evidence to
+`project_apple_application_graph`. It reports application roots and nested
+bundles by path convention: app extensions, XPC services, frameworks, login
+items, system and driver extensions, and plug-ins. It also lists privileged
+helpers, launchd plists, symlinks, and each bundle's `info_plist_path` and
+executable candidates. Roles are path conventions, not parsed plists; read the
+listed plists with `inspect_plist`.
+
+After `open_binary` on a `.app` or Mach-O, use `trace_dylib_resolution` to see
+which file each `@rpath`, `@loader_path` and `@executable_path` load reaches for
+every executable in the bundle. It also lists missing or weak loads and earlier
+`@rpath` candidates that are absent. Narrow large bundles with `roots` or
+`architecture`. System paths stay undetermined because the dyld shared cache
+provides them.
+
+Use `extract_artifact` when materialized files are needed. It extracts the active
+target and accepts optional `integrity_policy`; see the [MCP contracts](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/mcp-contracts.md).
+It materializes all regular files into a fresh temporary directory chosen by
+REA. Symlinks and encrypted entries are inventory facts, not extractable files.
+The result reports the materialized directory; callers do not choose the
+destination. No separate permission grant is needed.
+
+Native DMG traversal automatically uses a read-only mount on supported macOS
+hosts, with an owned temporary mount directory and cleanup. It needs no approval
+flag. Unsupported hosts or mount failures remain explicit limitations; do not
+claim child inventory when only root identity is available. Extraction is a
+separate filesystem-writing operation.
+
+For headerless DOS COM, explicitly open with `format: "dos-com"` (CLI
+`--target-format dos-com`). Inspect the load image before trusting function
+analysis: the entry is `0x10100`, file offset zero, with imposed real-mode segment
+context. PSP/stack/device state remains unmodeled. See [DOS guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/ghidra-dos.md).
+
+For other headerless images (embedded firmware without ELF/Mach-O/PE/MZ
+headers), open with `format: "raw-binary"`, `architecture` (`x86`, `x86_64`,
+`arm`, `arm64`, or `6502`), and `entry_point` (`0x` hex). File offset 0 is mapped at
+that address. Hopper and IDA refuse this interpretation; Ghidra uses
+`BinaryLoader` with a little-endian generic language. Big-endian, Thumb-only,
+and Cortex-M variants are unsupported. `6502` selects NMOS 6502; the entry and
+complete file mapping must fit within `0x0000..0xffff`. 65C02, 65816, cartridge
+containers, bank switching, and mapper semantics are unsupported. Windows
+Ghidra P0 admits raw images only for `6502`. See [raw binary guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/raw-binary.md).
+
+### Function annotations in Ghidra
+
+Use `annotate_native_function` for one function name and/or entry comments, with at least one explicit change. Review its annotation readback and refreshed dossier inline. Changes are atomic and session-scoped; empty comments clear them, omitted fields preserve them. Later MCP calls observe edits until close. CLI `annotate-native-function` returns the updated analysis before discarding the session. Original executable bytes are unchanged; edits invalidate immutable snapshots. Windows P0 does not admit database mutations. For naming only, `set_address_name` / `set_addresses_names` also work with Ghidra: they name function entries or data addresses (primary labels) and return compact per-address success booleans instead of a dossier.
+
+## Offline PE resource inventory
+
+Use `inspect_pe_resources` with an absolute `path`, or
+`rea inspect-pe-resources ./selected.exe --json`, for portable PE32/PE32+
+resource inspection without opening a native target. Preserve returned Evidence:
+type/name/language IDs and UTF-16 names, original directory/data/payload ranges,
+code pages, payload hashes and static icon-group references. Same-language icon
+resolution is explicit; missing references and size mismatch remain visible.
+Other payloads are opaque, and this operation does not decode images or simulate
+Windows resource loading. Consult the budgets and supported tree profile in
+[offline binary diagnostics](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/binary-diagnostics.md).
+
+For exact core-module import/export differences, use `compare_wasm_interfaces`
+with two complete inspection Evidence records (or current-session retained
+references) and explicit scope. Preserve unknown types/duplicate names; static
+interface equality is not runtime compatibility. CLI accepts complete inline
+Evidence in `rea compare-wasm-interfaces input.json --json`.

 # Repository Guidelines

-## Product Direction
+## Product and Authority

-REA exposes reverse-engineering tools through a CLI and MCP server. Hopper, the bring-your-own Ghidra adapter, and the bring-your-own IDA MCP adapter are operation-capable deep binary-analysis providers. Ghidra is supported on Linux x64 and macOS x64/arm64 with matching native decompiler tools, and has an experimental Windows x64 P0 boundary for approved native x86-64 PE applications; on Linux and macOS it supplies inventory, function analysis, and atomic function annotation edits in an ephemeral database, without modifying executable bytes or controlling a GUI. Windows P0 has no mutation authority. IDA adapts upstream legacy attached GUI and modern headless database-supervisor profiles for live read-only analysis; initial real verification covers Windows, and an attached GUI database is never saved or closed. Keep provider-specific code out of the domain and application layers.
+REA is a local-only reverse-engineering tool with shared CLI/MCP workflows. Distinguish observations, derivations, inferences, and unknowns; preserve Evidence provenance and session semantics through both adapters. Provider support and setup live in [README.md](README.md#choosing-a-deep-analysis-provider) and its linked guides.

-Prioritize:
+Follow the [contribution scope and fail-closed integration rule](CONTRIBUTING.md#contribution-scope). Do not integrate capabilities while material scope, authority, side-effect, or required verification questions remain unresolved. For new providers or capabilities involving target execution, injection, mutation, or protection recovery, seek the required maintainer scope decision before substantial implementation for integration. Welcome early proposals, small exploratory prototypes, and draft PRs that help resolve questions; they do not authorize integration.

- tool results that distinguish observations, inferences, and unknowns;
- equivalent behavior through the CLI and MCP;
- additive, idempotent configuration with backups;
- end-to-end tests for packaged artifacts and real Hopper/Ghidra claims.
+Ghidra uses ephemeral databases without modifying executable bytes or controlling a GUI; Windows Ghidra P0 has no mutation authority. IDA analysis is read-only; never save or close an attached GUI database.

-Installers must not install or upgrade Homebrew, Node.js, npm, Java, Ghidra, or other unrelated software. Ghidra is bring-your-own. `rea setup` must print its planned changes and require approval before writing files or installing Hopper.

-## Project Structure & Module Organization
+## Architecture and Cleanup

-REA is a layered ESM TypeScript application. Dependencies flow inward from pure domain logic through contracts, providers, application workflows, and CLI/MCP adapters. See [docs/architecture.mermaid](docs/architecture.mermaid) for the component map.
+Dependencies flow inward: domain semantics and contracts, provider adapters, shared application workflows, then CLI/MCP adapters. Keep engine protocols and provider-specific code out of domain/application layers. See [docs/architecture.mermaid](docs/architecture.mermaid) when changing composition.

- `src/domain/` owns pure provider-neutral semantics; `src/contracts/` owns caller-visible schemas and the canonical tool inventory.
- `src/hopper/`, `src/ghidra/`, `src/ida/`, `src/browser/`, `src/native/`, `src/artifacts/`, and `src/dotnet/` own provider-specific boundaries. Keep provider protocols out of domain and application code.
- `src/application/` composes shared CLI/MCP workflows; `src/server/` translates MCP requests; `src/cli.ts` and `src/main.ts` are the CLI and MCP entry points.
- `src/process/` owns shared process lifecycle primitives, not provider wire protocols. `bridge/` contains provider-side adapters.
- `tests/` contains unit, composition, boundary, acceptance, and conformance tests. `scripts/verify-*` contains real-toolchain checks.
- `docs/product-catalog.json` is generated. Update its source contracts and regenerate it; do not edit it directly.
+Give each interpretation and resource a clear owner. Consumers must use that owner's parsed facts rather than reinterpret raw source. Preserve identity, omission, uncertainty, and source evidence across boundaries. Retain ownership of resources whose cleanup failed. Reuse `src/process/` supervision and identity primitives; a PID and executable path alone do not establish ownership after exit or reuse.

-## Build, Test, and Development Commands
+Keep proof of ownership separate from validity, editability, and readiness. Malformed owned data may still be safely removable. Unresolved identity or applicability must remain unknown rather than be treated as absent, foreign, or aligned.

- `npm ci`: install the locked dependencies.
- `npm run build:cached`: build the CLI and MCP server.
- `npm run test:local`: run changed source tests without building; pass exact source test paths to run them regardless of Git status.
- `npm run test:focused -- PATH...`: run exact test files; build first for boundary, acceptance, or process-global tests.
- `npm run check:changed`: run cached static checks and source tests affected since the branch merge base (default `origin/main`).
- `npm run check:fast`: run cached typecheck and lint checks.
- `npm run check:pr`: opt into the complete local deterministic gate and generated-document checks for broad changes; CI owns full coverage. Routine iterations need focused tests and relevant checks, not the whole gate each time.
- `npm run docs:check`: check committed generated documents; `npm run docs:generate` regenerates them.
- For provider-dependent changes, see [docs/testing.md](docs/testing.md) and run the matching real-provider verification.
- Keep each verification lane's prerequisites limited to the claim it checks. Use host-native fixtures for host/provider acceptance; put optional cross-target formats and their external toolchains in a separate lane. Preflight required commands and report the missing dependency and lane clearly.
+Assess brittleness in touched code during implementation, debugging, review, and maintenance. Fix the producing representation or ownership rule before adding downstream repairs. Normalize once at the owning boundary using format-aware parsers. Remove superseded representations, aliases, wrappers, and redundant tests after verifying affected consumers. Introduce abstractions only when they remove observed complexity.

-See [docs/testing.md](docs/testing.md) for test scopes and verification lanes and [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) for contribution checks. Pre-commit formats and lints staged source; pre-push runs `npm run check:fast`.
+When fixing a bug, inspect the producing boundary and affected consumers for duplicated interpretation or unclear ownership. Complete any directly related refactor in the same change and remove superseded code. Passing regression tests alone does not establish that the brittleness is resolved. If related cleanup remains, explain what remains and why.

-## Configuration & Environment Variables
+When addressing a review thread, inspect the producing boundary and affected consumers for brittleness. Complete directly related refactoring in the same change. Before resolving the thread, explain the root cause, structural fix, validation, and any remaining cleanup.

-Configuration is parsed and validated by `src/config.ts` and `src/config/`. Keep user-facing setup and provider configuration in [README.md](README.md) and the relevant guide under `docs/`; do not maintain a second environment-variable catalogue here.
+Parse unknown boundary values and model expected failures with the tagged error algebra and `Result`. Preserve partial facts and meaningful failure reasons. Keep identity and lookup values separate from display formatting; preserve source values and explicit unknowns when normalization loses information. Absolute paths, file URLs, and HTTP paths have different semantics.

-## Coding Style & Naming Conventions
+Validate advertised JSON Schemas after SDK conversion against their declared dialect and actual clients. Bind handlers to named contracts with exact types; catalog ordering must never select an operation or schema.

-Use ESM TypeScript, two-space indentation, and the committed Oxfmt configuration. Keep compiler strictness intact (`strict`, `exactOptionalPropertyTypes`, `noUncheckedIndexedAccess`, `verbatimModuleSyntax`). Use `camelCase` for values/functions, `PascalCase` for classes/types, and `UPPER_SNAKE_CASE` for constants. Parse unknown values at every MCP, environment, and subprocess boundary. Avoid `any`, unchecked casts, non-null assertions, import-time I/O, and floating promises. Exported APIs require concise JSDoc. Model expected failures with the tagged error algebra and `Result`, not broad exception wrappers.
+## Performance

-## Boundary Contracts
+Design analysis workflows and agent interfaces for efficiency from the first
+implementation. Correctness, useful answers, Evidence provenance, caller choices,
+compatibility and safe resource bounds remain required.

-Treat a boundary as a contract between the producer's actual representation and the consumer's required meaning. When implementing or auditing a boundary, trace the value through parsing, normalization, authorization, serialization, and the CLI/MCP result. Establish affected callers from their code paths; similar tool names or workflows do not prove that they share a schema or failure mode.
+Optimize in this order:

-Keep portable evidence and scenario validation distinct from host-native execution checks. Absolute filesystem paths, file URLs, and HTTP paths have different semantics; do not substitute one platform's syntax for the domain concept. Interpret provider metadata according to its documented or observed producer behavior. When a transformation loses information, preserve the reported value and an explicit unknown rather than guessing a canonical identity.
+1. Agent tokens and context. Return the smallest sufficient answer with
+   necessary provenance, coverage and limitations. Use task selection,
+   summaries, paging and retained Evidence where supported; honor requested
+   detail and keep complete Evidence accessible. Count the whole task,
+   including schemas, extra calls and retries.
+2. Analysis time. Reuse validated results and shared work. Cache keys must
+   cover result-affecting inputs; define invalidation and lifetime. Validate
+   freshness before reporting cached live state as current.
+3. CPU and memory. Avoid unnecessary work and copies; bound concurrency,
+   retained state and serialization growth.

-Preserve meaningful failure reasons through application and adapter layers. Malformed input is distinct from an unsupported target, unavailable provider, or host operating-system permission denial. Diagnostics should identify the failed constraint and the target or lifecycle request it applies to. Recovery advice must address that reason and point to an available workflow; generic catches must not erase actionable validation details.
+For changes affecting these costs, measure representative completed tasks and
+compare equivalent workflows before and after where available. Report token
+usage, elapsed time, CPU time and peak process-family memory. Separate cold
+and warm runs, label estimates, and state unmeasured costs. Fewer bytes alone
+do not establish fewer tokens or faster analysis.

-Leave meaningful target, action, capture, and output choices to the agent. A selected operation already expresses intent; do not require approval booleans or repeated permission declarations. Trace each setting to its consumer: remove ignored options and single-value confirmations, derive built-in lifecycle behavior, and supply defaults for omitted optional metadata. Report actual effects and limitations where they help interpret results rather than asking callers to restate them.
+## Development

-Verify the representation consumed at the next boundary. Internal validator success does not establish JSON Schema validity or client compatibility: validate advertised input and output schemas against their declared dialect after SDK conversion, and keep generated contracts aligned. Use representative producer data and regressions that exercise the failed behavior. Platform and provider support claims require the corresponding real workflow; package startup, capability probes, and mock transport tests establish only their narrower claims. Report unverified coverage explicitly.
+Use [.nvmrc](.nvmrc) and `package.json#packageManager` for the pinned toolchain. Cursor Cloud may place older Node.js first on `PATH`; environment setup installs the pinned toolchain under `/usr/local/bin`.

-Bind tool handlers to named contracts, preserving their exact input and output types. Catalog ordering is presentation metadata; changing that order must not select a different schema or operation for an existing handler.
+- `npm ci`: install locked dependencies.
+- `npm run build:cached`: build the runtime and packaged skill.
+- `npm run test:local -- PATH...`: source tests without building.
+- `npm run test:focused -- PATH...`: exact tests with their required artifacts.
+- `npm run check:fast`: cached typecheck/lint and the pre-push check.
+- `npm run docs:check`: validate generated documentation.

-## Designing MCP Tools
+Use relevant checks for the change. The complete local gate, `npm run check:pr`, is optional for broad changes or CI diagnosis. See [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) for development, generated-file ownership, and release conventions.

-Start from the analyst question and desired result, not a provider API. Before adding a tool, inspect the existing contract and its nearest alternative.
+`docs/public/product-catalog.json`, `docs/verification/managed-conformance-*.json`, and `skills/` are ignored outputs. Edit source contracts and `.agents/skills/reverse-engineer-anything/`, then regenerate as needed. `.cache/mcp-tool-catalog.json` is test metadata; runtime builds and source checking do not consume it. Never commit binaries, provider project documents, credentials, `dist/`, `node_modules/`, or local planning artifacts.

-Let agents compose experiments with ordinary commands, scripts, and local fixture servers. REA tools should perform the requested inspection or capture and return evidence. A custom orchestration language, replay engine, or separate prepare/execute plan needs an observed requirement that those primitives cannot satisfy. A plan-only tool without an executor does not establish runtime behavior; expose the useful inspection directly.
+## Tool and Test Changes

- Prefer reusable, composable primitives: inspect one explicit object or
-  relationship and return evidence that can support different analyst
-  questions. Compose primitives into a workflow only for a recurring outcome
-  that benefits from joining evidence sources; keep one-application or
-  business-domain interpretations out of general tool contracts.
- Use **inspect/search** tools for facts about a target or candidate set; use **trace** tools for relationships; use **compare** tools for explicitly paired inputs.
- Add a **workflow** when observed agent use shows a repeated sequence that REA can compose without losing analyst control. Return useful results inline so callers can choose their next action.
- Use **observe/capture** only when runtime activity is required, and declare authority and lifecycle effects in the contract.
- Extend an existing tool when intent and result contract are unchanged. Add a tool for a distinct analyst outcome or materially different authority.
- Keep caller-facing names and results provider-neutral. Put engine-specific behavior in provider adapters and report each provider's exact coverage.
- Keep results complete by default. Add a limit only when it follows from a real format, protocol, authority, or resource-safety constraint; explain truncation and unsupported facets. Keep observed, derived, inferred, and unknown results distinct.
- Include artifact identity, source locations, Evidence references, actionable errors, and relevant limitations when they affect conclusions. Return the evidence needed for the next analysis inline rather than requiring a resource or identifier lookup.
- Implement shared application workflows behind CLI and MCP adapters. Update canonical contracts and generated catalog together.
+For tool design, follow [docs/tool-design.md](docs/tool-design.md): start from the analyst question, reuse existing contracts, preserve caller choices, and return useful evidence inline. Limits must follow real format, protocol, authority, or resource constraints. Account for representation expansion before allocation; derive completeness from examined coverage.

-See [docs/tool-design.md](docs/tool-design.md) for the design checklist. When usability or tool selection changes, evaluate representative CLI/MCP tasks as well as schema and transport behavior.
+For test changes or provider claims, use [docs/testing.md](docs/testing.md). Prefer real public CLI/MCP workflows, then production-boundary integration, then producer goldens. Keep module tests for distinct semantics stronger workflows cannot reliably reproduce. Preserve malformed-input, cancellation, cleanup, permission, capacity, and target-identity coverage when pruning. Report unverified coverage explicitly; simulated providers do not establish real-provider behavior.

-## Testing Guidelines
-
-Name tests `*.test.ts`. Use Vitest and production seams (`tests/fixtures/`) rather than module mocks. Domain tests assert pure behavior; adapter tests use fake launcher/socket seams; MCP tests connect with the client SDK version pinned in `package.json`. Preserve the canonical tool inventory defined by `TOOL_CONTRACTS` and verified through `CATALOG_IDENTITY` and generated product metadata. Cover malformed input, cancellation, lifecycle cleanup, and actual format, protocol, host-permission, and target-identity boundaries. Do not add tests that merely freeze arbitrary caps or prescribed call sequences. Real Hopper, Ghidra, browser, managed conformance, and any real managed-tool claims cannot be replaced by mocks; use the corresponding `verify:*` command.
-
-Keep tool catalogs complete and self-describing; prefer capability- and session-scoped availability over schema truncation. Serialized bytes alone do not measure agent usability or model context cost.
-
-## Cursor Cloud specific instructions
-
-Development requires Node.js 24.18.0 and npm 11.16.0 (`.nvmrc` and `packageManager`). The Cloud Agent image places an older `node` on `PATH` ahead of a normal install. Environment setup installs the pinned toolchain under `/usr/local` and prepends `/usr/local/bin` for login shells. Confirm `node -v` is `v24.18.0` before installing dependencies.
-
-`npm ci` installs locked dependencies. `npm run build:cached` produces the CLI and MCP server. `npm run check:fast` is the pre-push typecheck and lint. Hopper, Ghidra, and IDA are optional bring-your-own providers. JavaScript analysis and the deterministic Vitest suites do not need them. `rea doctor` reports those engines as missing until they are configured.
-
-## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
-
-Use Conventional Commit subjects because Release Please derives versions and changelogs from them. Examples: `feat: add historical source import`, `fix(process): stop timers after exit`, and `docs: update architecture`. Use `!` or a `BREAKING CHANGE:` footer for breaking changes. Pull request titles must follow the same format because squash merges use the title as the release commit. Pull requests should describe contract or behavior changes, list verification commands, link issues, and include sanitized MCP examples when schemas change. State whether real Hopper/Ghidra verification was performed. Never commit binaries, Hopper or Ghidra project documents, credentials, `dist/`, `node_modules/`, or local planning artifacts (e.g. `.codex/`).
+Use Conventional Commit subjects and PR titles. Mark breaking changes with `!` or a `BREAKING CHANGE:` footer. Describe behavior changes, relevant validation, and real-provider verification scope.

+## Choosing a contribution
+
+Explain the concrete problem, keep related corrections together, and report
+verification and unavailable coverage. Contributions should justify their review
+and maintenance cost. Keep cosmetic polish with useful fixes; confusing or
+incorrect user instructions warrant standalone corrections. Collect other
+cosmetic-only suggestions in an issue rather than separate PRs.
+
+For capability organization and provider composition, use the
+[architecture map](docs/architecture.mermaid). Production factories in
+`src/composition/` construct fresh providers without starting engines or acquiring
+targets; optional adapter failures must preserve successful peers. Run
+`npm run verify:test-discovery` after adding or moving tests. Resolved import
+boundaries are checked by `npm run verify:module-boundaries`, included in lint.
+
+For analysis workflows and agent interfaces, follow the
+[performance priorities](AGENTS.md#performance). Explain the selected output
+scope, reuse/cache decisions, and relevant before/after measurements when these
+costs change.

 When adding or changing an MCP tool, follow the [tool design guide](docs/tool-design.md) and preserve the canonical contracts and generated catalog.

+## Contribution scope
+
+REA focuses on software structure, runtime behavior, and evidence through
+general-purpose reverse-engineering workflows. Evaluate a proposal by its actual
+capabilities, side effects, defaults, and complete workflow. A tool name or a
+reference to vulnerability research, malware analysis, or CTFs does not determine
+whether it belongs in REA.
+
+Supported contributions include format inspection, ordinary archive and standard
+compression extraction, disassembly, decompilation, cross-references, general
+static deobfuscation, vulnerability analysis, and evidence reporting. Static
+protection detection is distinct from defeating that protection. Security fixes
+and isolated regression tests remain in scope.
+
+Runtime investigation needs explicit boundaries. Launching or attaching to a
+process, injecting instrumentation, running scripts, and changing memory or
+registers require review of target selection, execution and mutation authority,
+provenance, resource limits, cancellation, and cleanup. General Frida or debugger
+support is not inherently read-only, and existing support does not authorize
+every workflow built on it. General-purpose interfaces are not classified as
+dedicated bypass workflows solely because caller-provided code could be misused;
+their execution and mutation authority must still be reviewed.
+
+REA does not integrate or officially distribute:
+
+- Purpose-built workflows to defeat commercial packing or code-virtualization
+  protections and automatically recover protected code.
+- Anti-debugging or anti-instrumentation evasion, or DRM, license, anti-cheat, or
+  access-control bypass workflows.
+- Exploit or attack-payload automation, credential theft, covert persistence,
+  unauthorized access, or bulk attack workflows.
+
+These boundaries apply to first-party providers, adapters, plugins, bundled
+scripts, defaults, examples, and documentation. Moving a capability into an
+optional dependency or plugin does not exempt it. Review what the integration
+exposes, including upstream defaults and raw-command or script execution paths.
+Ordinary extraction and general static deobfuscation are not excluded merely
+because the input is packed or obfuscated; assess added bypass or execution
+behavior separately.
+
+This is a product and maintenance boundary, not a judgment about a contributor's
+intentions or a declaration that all excluded research is unlawful. Contributors
+must have the rights and authorization needed for their work. A local-only design
+or an "authorized use only" disclaimer does not establish containment or settle
+legal and scope questions.
+
+### Fail-closed integration
+
+If scope fit, target or authorization boundaries, side effects, or the verification
+needed to establish those boundaries remain materially unresolved, **do not merge,
+enable, or include the capability in official packages or distributions**. Keep
+the proposal pending, narrow it, or decline it. Record unknowns explicitly; do not
+turn them into "none" or assumed safety. Passing CI, completed implementation,
+upstream popularity, or silence from maintainers is not scope approval.
+
+For a new provider or a capability involving target execution, injection,
+mutation, or protection recovery, seek an explicit maintainer scope decision in
+the linked issue or design discussion before substantial implementation intended
+for integration. Small exploratory prototypes and draft PRs may help inform that
+decision; they do not authorize integration. The decision must cover the final
+proposed behavior; a scope expansion needs a new decision. Routine fixes and
+documentation changes within existing boundaries do not need a separate advance
+decision, but must not silently expand those boundaries.
+
+### Starting a proposal
+
+To open a feature request or design discussion, describe the problem and desired
+outcome or decision. Short answers and the forms' "Not sure yet" options are
+welcome. You do not need code, a complete design or test plan, legal analysis, or
+private proof-of-authorization documents to start a discussion. Share what you
+know and leave optional details blank when you need help.
+
+Form selections guide triage; they are not proof of authorization or scope
+approval. Unselected effects must not be treated as established absence.
+Maintainers and implementers work together to resolve the following before
+integration:
+
+- The concrete analyst question, requested inputs and outputs, and why existing
+  REA operations are insufficient.
+- Why the workflow fits this scope, its non-goals, and any protection recovery,
+  bypass, or attack automation it would expose.
+- The selected targets and every execution, injection, mutation, network, or
+  persistence effect, including behavior inherited from upstream tools.
+- How the boundaries and outcome will be verified with self-owned or appropriately
+  licensed samples; identify real CLI/MCP and provider coverage, cleanup and
+  resource checks, and remaining unknowns. Do not publish private binaries,
+  credentials, or sensitive target data; follow [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md) for
+  private vulnerability reports.
+
+Mixed proposals should separate acceptable analysis capabilities from excluded
+workflows so each can be decided independently. An issue may discuss unresolved
+questions; opening an issue or PR does not authorize integration. This is a
+maintainer integration gate, not a per-call confirmation requirement or a sandbox
+guarantee.
+
 ## Development setup

-REA development requires Node.js 24.18.x and npm 11.16.x (pinned toolchain via `nvm use`; the supported runtime range is Node.js ^22.19 || ^24.11 || >=26, as the README badge states). Real-Hopper verification additionally requires either macOS 12+ or an officially supported Linux host (Ubuntu 24.04+, Fedora 41+, or 64-bit Arch) and an installed Hopper application. Linux demo verification uses its own private Xvfb display and does not require a desktop session. Run `nvm use` before installing dependencies.
+Use the development toolchain pinned in `.nvmrc` and
+`package.json#packageManager`. Run `nvm use` before installing dependencies;
+installed-package runtime support is documented in
+[installation](docs/installation.md#start-setup).

+Pre-commit formats and lints staged files; pre-push runs `check:fast`.

-Set `REA_LOG_LEVEL` to `trace`, `debug`, `info`, `warn`, `error`, `fatal`, or
-`silent` to control structured JSON diagnostics. MCP mode defaults to `info` and
-always writes logs to stderr so the stdio protocol remains intact. One-shot CLI
-logging is opt-in and writes to stdout when a level is configured, preserving
-machine-readable command output by default. Request arguments, bridge
-authentication tokens, and environment data are redacted.
+### Generated files and command ownership

-Changes that claim real Hopper behavior must also be tested against the
-source-owned, digest-bound conformance manifest. The verifier builds the
-platform-native fixtures before starting Hopper:
+`docs:generate` prepares documentation and portable managed evidence;
+`evidence:generate` prepares only the managed commitment and its runtime/skill
+dependencies. The ignored outputs are `docs/public/product-catalog.json`,
+`docs/verification/managed-conformance-*.json`, and `skills/`. Edit authored
+skill instructions in `.agents/skills/reverse-engineer-anything/`, where Skills
+can discover the public bundle directly from a clean checkout. `verify:package`
+installs that bundle with Skills 1.7.2 using default repository-root discovery
+and checks every installed file, alongside the packaged setup checks.
+CI validates generated outputs and retains them as artifacts; do not commit
+them. Reviewed source metadata, including
+`src/generatedPackageMetadata.ts` and `docs/error-contract.schema.json`, remains
+tracked and checked for freshness.

-```bash
-npm run verify:hopper
-```
+The packaged skill contains instructions and inventory metadata, not runtime
+schema hashes. Its conformance commitment covers that exact bundle and portable
+verification; it does not attest optional real-provider runs. Schema-only changes
+should not alter that commitment. Doctor and `binary_session` expose runtime
+schema identity.

-On a self-hosted Linux runner with the setup-installed Xvfb dependencies, use:
+Build/generation commands hold a SQLite transaction around the entire Turbo
+graph, including cache restoration. `.cache/rea-command-locks/` databases identify
+locks, not stale files; never remove them while commands run. POSIX cancellation
+retains process-group ownership until settlement; Windows waits for completion.
+Real-provider execution is uncached.

-```bash
-npm run verify:hopper:linux
-```
+### Temporary files and diagnostics

-Set `REA_HOPPER_CONFORMANCE_MANIFEST_PATH` only to verify another source-built
-manifest. The normal commands use `build/conformance/manifest.json`; generated
-fixtures and manifests remain ignored and must not be committed.
+Tests use `createTestTempDirectory` from `tests/fixtures/temporaryDirectory.ts`
+for exact-path, awaited cleanup, including failures and timeouts.
+`npm run verify:test-temp-hygiene` runs the suite under a fresh `TMPDIR` and
+rejects remaining REA-owned paths. Never glob-clean shared `/tmp/rea-*` content.

-The macOS and Linux real-Hopper workflows remain separate so a successful mock or package test cannot be reported as platform-runtime proof. Pull requests changing setup, launch, bridge, or Hopper behavior must state which real workflows ran and why either workflow was unavailable.
+`REA_LOG_LEVEL` selects `trace`, `debug`, `info`, `warn`, `error`, `fatal`, or
+`silent`. Logs go to stderr: MCP defaults to `info`, and one-shot CLI logging
+is opt-in, so stdout carries only protocol messages and command results.
+Request arguments, bridge tokens, and environment data are redacted from
+diagnostic logs.

-Describe the behavior change and verification performed in the pull request. Never commit binaries, Hopper documents, credentials, `dist/`, `node_modules/`, or local planning artifacts.
+## Real Hopper changes
+
+Run `npm run verify:hopper` on a supported macOS host or
+`npm run verify:hopper:linux` on the supported Linux demo runner. These build
+native fixtures and verify the installed engine through CLI/MCP; package or
+simulated-provider checks do not establish engine behavior. See
+[real-toolchain verification](docs/testing.md#end-to-end-integration-and-golden-evidence)
+for prerequisites and scope, and [Hopper setup](docs/installation.md#hopper)
+for supported hosts and unattended startup.
+
+Use the default `build/conformance/manifest.json` unless explicitly verifying
+another source-built manifest with `REA_HOPPER_CONFORMANCE_MANIFEST_PATH`.
+Generated fixtures and manifests remain ignored.

 ## Maintainer release checklist

-Run `npm run check:pr`, the isolated package verifier, package dry run, and two-target real-Hopper verifier described above. Build a local tarball and exercise the executable through the package boundary:
+Use the [release guide](docs/releasing.md). Main pushes automatically refresh a
+Release Please PR with the next version and changelog. Review its migration
+notes, wait for the current CI checks to pass, and merge it into main to publish.

-```bash
-npm pack
-```
+The Release workflow validates and tags that merge; both publishers build its
+exact SHA. Ordinary main pushes cannot publish packages. An optional manual
+`release/VERSION` checkpoint retains explicit preparation and publication.

-Use the exact filename printed by `npm pack` to run the packaged executable:
+For grouped release notes with verified contributor thanks, use the repository's
+`rea-changelog-update` skill in `.agents/skills/rea-changelog-update/`. Its inventory,
+credit checks, and finalization process are described in the release guide.

-```bash
-npm exec --yes --package ./rea-agents-VERSION.tgz -- rea --help
-```
-
-Replace `VERSION` with the packed version; do not use a tarball from an earlier
-build.
-
-Publish the public package:
-
-```bash
-npm publish --access public
-```
-
-After npm registry propagation, verify the published CLI and connect the client SDK version pinned in `package.json` to the published server to confirm the canonical tool catalog:
-
-```bash
-npx -y rea-agents@latest --help
-npx -y rea-agents@latest doctor
-npx -y rea-agents@latest setup --yes --all-detected
-npx -y rea-agents@latest mcp
-```
+Keep new implementation commits on main for the next release. The workflow
+owns packaged-artifact verification, npm publication, the published CLI/MCP
+canary, and MCP Registry publication. Sync manual checkpoint metadata back to
+main after publication; see the guide for recovery and verification.

+## Responsible use
+
+REA is built for lawful analysis: security research, malware and incident
+analysis, vulnerability research and coordinated disclosure, CTFs and education,
+interoperability, software preservation, and debugging or auditing software you
+own or are authorized to examine.
+
+The REA project does not support, and will not help with:
+
+- circumventing DRM, license checks, anti-cheat systems or other technical
+  protection measures;
+- developing game cheats or tampering with online services;
+- bypassing authentication, bot protection or access controls on systems you are
+  not authorized to test;
+- copying proprietary software or reproducing its protected code and assets;

+
+Requests for help with the uses above will be closed without response in issues
+and discussions, and may result in removal from the REA community.
+
+## User responsibility
+
+Do not use REA for unauthorized access or exploitation, credential theft,
+malicious deployment of malware, unlawful collection or disclosure of data,
+unauthorized service disruption, or unlawful circumvention of access controls or
+licensing restrictions. Legitimate security research and malware analysis must
+remain within the rights and permissions applicable to the work.
+
+You are responsible for your use of REA, including commands, configurations,
+scripts, and actions you direct an AI agent to perform. Establish the legal
+authority and scope required for the targets, accounts, devices, software, data,
+and operations involved. Comply with applicable laws, contracts,
+intellectual-property rights, privacy obligations, and tool licenses. Public
+availability of software, possession of a file, or access to a debugging
+endpoint does not by itself establish permission for every operation.
+
+## Runtime, network, and device operations
+
+Some REA workflows execute or observe programs, attach to runtime or browser
+endpoints, capture network traffic, interact with applications, or operate on
+connected devices. These actions can affect application state, files, accounts,
+devices, and services. Authorization to inspect an artifact does not necessarily
+authorize execution, interception, device changes, or interaction with another
+party's system.
+
+Review the operations you request, including agent-generated plans and scripts,
+and use an appropriate environment for untrusted targets. You are responsible
+for protecting credentials, personal data, captured traffic, and investigation
+artifacts, and for obtaining any permission required to collect, retain,
+process, or share them. Local operation does not establish authorization or
+guarantee that executed targets and third-party tools have no external effects.
+
+## Analysis results and generated output
+
+Decompilation, reconstruction, heuristics, and AI-assisted analysis may be
+incomplete or incorrect. Results do not guarantee accuracy, completeness,
+security, compatibility, or legal compliance. Review the underlying evidence and
+verify consequential conclusions before relying on them.
+
+Obtaining source-like output or an analysis report does not grant rights to the
+original program, its data, or the generated output. Check the target's rights
+and the producing tool's applicable terms before publishing, sharing, or using
+results in another product or service.
+
+## Third-party tools and licenses
+
+Third-party components and analysis tools retain their own licenses, copyright
+notices, and usage conditions. Consult
+[Third-party notices](THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md) for their roles, licensing
+records, and preserved upstream texts.
+
+You must legally obtain IDA Pro and Hex-Rays decompilers, Hopper, JEB, and any
+other proprietary tools, together with the rights required for your use. REA
+provides no commercial-tool license, key, or activation entitlement. Permitted
+trials and demos remain subject to vendor terms. An open-source bridge or
+accessible API does not grant additional user, machine, feature, automation,
+hosting, or output-sharing rights. Cracked copies, stolen keys, unauthorized key
+sharing, and bypassing license restrictions are not authorized by REA.
+
+## Disclaimer of warranty
+
+REA is provided **AS IS**, without express or implied warranties, including
+merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and noninfringement, as set
+out in the [MIT License](LICENSE). You assume the risks of using the software
+and deciding whether it is suitable for your task. No project description,
+example, analysis result, or third-party integration guarantees a particular
+outcome or establishes that your intended use is lawful or safe.
+
+## Limitation of liability
+
+The warranty and liability provisions of the [MIT License](LICENSE) govern REA's
+authors and copyright holders, subject to applicable law. That license disclaims
+liability for claims, damages, and other liability arising from or in connection
+with the software or its use, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise. This
+document does not expand those provisions or override rights and obligations
+that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
+
+## Disclaimer of endorsement
+
+References to third-party projects, contributors, products, services, and
+trademarks identify their work and REA's integrations. Credits and thanks do not
+imply affiliation, sponsorship, approval, or endorsement by the named parties,
+including the National Security Agency and commercial tool vendors.
+Redistribution, bundling, or hosting by a third party does not by itself imply

-هل وجدت في تطبيق ميزة تريدها في منتجك؟ اطلب من وكيلك استقصاءها باستخدام REA. يستطيع فحص التطبيق من دون شيفرته المصدرية، وشرح طريقة عمل الميزة وعرض الأدلة، ثم بناء نسخة تناسب مشروعك.
-
-يوفر REA أدوات لتحليل الملفات التنفيذية الأصلية وتطبيقات JavaScript وElectron وتجميعات .NET والمواقع. يمكنك استخدامها من وكيلك أو من الطرفية. يعمل التحليل محليًا، وتتضمن النتائج الأدلة والقيود.
-
-يضبط Setup إعدادات الوكيل ويربطه بتثبيت موجود من Hopper أو Ghidra، ويثبّت سير عمل REA الموجّه. ويمكنه تثبيت Hopper بعد موافقتك. ولا يحتاج التحليل الثابت لتطبيقات JavaScript إلى أي محرك.

-## اطلب من وكيلك مباشرة
-
-بعد [الإعداد](#البدء-السريع)، أعد تشغيل الوكيل ثم اطلب:
-
-```text
-استقصِ طريقة عمل البحث في تطبيق Notes، واعرض الأدلة، ثم ابنِ ميزة مشابهة لمشروعي.

-
-## البدء السريع
-
-### تشغيل الإعداد (موصى به)
-
-اربط REA بوكيلك:
-
-```bash
-npx rea-agents setup
-```
-
-يعرض Setup أولاً قائمة متعددة الاختيار للوكلاء الذين تريد ربطهم. تكون تسجيلات REA الموجودة محددة افتراضياً، ولا يؤدي اكتشاف عميل جديد وحده إلى تحديده؛ ويمكنك اختيار عميل غير مهيأ. راجع المسارات والتغييرات المحددة قبل الموافقة. يثبت Setup سير عمل REA للوكلاء المحددين افتراضياً. Hopper خيار منفصل يتطلب موافقة مستقلة، ويمكن أيضاً حفظ مسارات تثبيت Ghidra الموجودة.
-
-يعرض التغييرات قبل تطبيقها وينشئ نسخة احتياطية من الإعدادات الموجودة. راجع [دليل التثبيت والإعداد](docs/installation.md) للمتطلبات والخيارات الإضافية.
-
-### الاستخدام مع وكيل
-
-بعد الإعداد، أعد تشغيل الوكيل واشرح التطبيق أو الميزة التي تريد استقصاءها. يدعم REA Claude Code وClaude Desktop وCodex وCursor وGemini CLI وWindsurf وDevin وOpenCode وAntigravity وGitHub Copilot CLI وCommand Code وVS Code. تكون تسجيلات REA الموجودة محددة افتراضياً، ويجب اختيار العملاء المكتشفين الآخرين يدوياً. يمكن للوكلاء الآخرين استخدام إعداد MCP أدناه.
-
-يمكن تشغيل Hopper في الوضع التجريبي. إذا ظهرت رسالة عند التشغيل الأول، فاختر التجربة أو أدخل ترخيصًا موجودًا.
-
-### مهارة مساعد البرمجة (اختياري)
-
-أضف المهارة إلى مساعد البرمجة للحصول على سياق أغنى:
-
-```bash
-npx skills add morluto/rea --skill reverse-engineer-anything
-```
-
-توفر المهارة سير عمل التحقيق في REA. نفّذ الإعداد أعلاه لربط REA بالوكيل وضبط أدوات التحليل. يثبّت الإعداد افتراضيًا مهارة مطابقة للإصدار؛ وهذا الأمر يثبّت نسخة المستودع.
-
-لشجرة JavaScript/Electron المستخرجة أو ملف ASAR، لا يلزم إعداد MCP ولا محرك أصلي:
-
-```bash
-npx -y rea-agents@latest analyze-javascript-application /absolute/path/to/app --json
-```
-
-استبدل المسار بهدفك (مثل `"D:/apps/example"` على Windows). يدعم سير العمل الثابت هذه المسارات، بينما يتطلب التحليل الأصلي محركه الخاص.
-
-### تثبيت أمر rea
-
-ثبت واجهة سطر الأوامر:
-
-```bash
-curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/morluto/rea/main/install.sh | bash
-```
-
-يجب تثبيت Node.js وnpm مسبقًا. عند تشغيله من طرفية، يثبت البرنامج `rea` ويبدأ الإعداد.
-
-يمكنك بدلًا من ذلك التثبيت باستخدام npm ثم تشغيل الإعداد:
-
-```bash
-npm install --global rea-agents
-rea setup
-```
-
-### المتطلبات
-
- macOS 12 أو أحدث
- Ubuntu 24.04+ أو Fedora 41+ أو Arch Linux بنواة 64 بت
- Node.js 22.x (>=22.19) أو 24.x (>=24.11) أو 26+ وnpm
-
-يتطلب تحليل الملفات التنفيذية الأصلية Hopper أو Ghidra. Hopper برنامج منفصل، وللوضع التجريبي قيود يحددها المورّد، لكن الترخيص المدفوع ليس إلزاميًا.
-
-يدعم Ghidra نظامي Linux x64 وmacOS x64/arm64. ثبت Ghidra 12.1.x وJDK الكامل بنواة 64 بت الذي يعلنه ذلك التثبيت (`application.java.min` حتى `application.java.max`) بصورة منفصلة، ثم اضبط REA لاستخدامهما. تتطلب إصدارات 12.1 الحالية JDK 21 أو أحدث ولا تحدد حدًا أعلى. جرى التحقق من الجسر مع Ghidra 12.1.4 وJDK 21. يحتاج macOS أيضًا إلى أداة فك الترجمة الأصلية المطابقة لمعمارية الجهاز.
-
-يستطيع Setup التحقق من التثبيت وحفظ المسارات؛ ولا يثبت أو يحدّث Ghidra أو Java أو Node.js أو npm أو Homebrew.
-
-يتضمن فرع main والحزمة npm 4.1.0 دعمًا تجريبيًا لـ Windows x64 Ghidra P0 لتطبيقات PE الأصلية x86-64 (غير المُدارة وغير DLL) على NTFS محلي، مع ضوابط Job Object وقوائم DACL الخاصة وقبول المسارات المجمّعة. تحقق من [حد الإصدار](docs/installation.md#released-package-and-main) قبل توقع ذلك من حزمة npm أقدم. راجع [دليل Windows Ghidra P0](docs/windows-ghidra-p0.md) للمتطلبات والنطاق الموثق.
-
-### تشخيص المشكلات
-
-يشخّص `npx -y rea-agents@latest doctor` الجهاز والاعتماديات وأدوات التحليل وإعدادات الوكيل من دون تغييرها. أضف `--json` للحصول على تشخيص منظم.
-
-مسار Hopper الافتراضي على Linux هو `/opt/hopper/bin/Hopper`. استخدم `HOPPER_LAUNCHER_PATH` للمسارات الأخرى. إذا كان الملف موجودًا لكن محرك التحليل لا يظهر، فشغّل `ldd /opt/hopper/bin/Hopper | grep 'not found'` للتحقق من المكتبات الناقصة. راجع [دليل Hopper](docs/installation.md#hopper).
-
-### التحديث والإزالة
-
- يحدّث `rea update` تثبيت REA الحالي.
- يزيل `rea uninstall` تسجيلات الوكلاء وملفات سير العمل التي يديرها REA، ويترك Hopper مثبتًا.
- يزيل `rea uninstall --purge-data` أيضًا ذاكرة REA المؤقتة وحالته. استخدمه فقط إذا أردت حذف هذه البيانات.
-
-## حالة الدعم
-
-تُوصف قدرات المستودع الحالية ومتطلبات الأنظمة في [دليل الدعم الإنجليزي](README.md#current-status). قد يسبق فرع main [إصدار npm](docs/installation.md#released-package-and-main).
-
- يوفر Ghidra 25 عملية للقراءة فقط على Linux x64 وmacOS x64/arm64 وحدود Windows x64 P0 التجريبية. يدعم Linux/macOS أيضًا تعليقات الدوال الذرية على مستوى الجلسة. نظام Windows P0 للقراءة فقط، ولا يوفر Ghidra أي تحكم في الواجهة.
- يتطلب الفحص الثابت لنظام Android تجهيز JADX/Java بشكل منفصل؛ ويغطي التحقق بالموفر الحقيقي نظام Linux. راجع [تحليل Android](docs/android-analysis.md).
- تحدد طلبات المتصفح وElectron والعمليات هدفها وإجراءاتها ودورة حياتها مباشرة، وتعتمد على وصول المضيف الفعلي دون منح أذونات منفصلة من REA. ما زالت كتابة إعدادات Setup وتثبيت Hopper تتطلب الموافقة على خطتها الدقيقة.
- يصف `rea capabilities` عمليات جلسة الملف التنفيذي لا كل أدوات التطبيقات ووقت التشغيل. راجع قائمة أدوات MCP الكاملة والدليل ذا الصلة.
-
-## استقصاء كامل بطلب واحد
-
-بعد الإعداد، يمكنك أن تطلب من وكيلك:
-
-> افتح التطبيق، واكتشف آلية عمل البحث من دون اتصال، واشرح تدفق التحكم، ثم ابنِ نسخة لمشروعي باستخدام TypeScript وSQLite.
-
-يمكن للوكيل تحويل ذلك إلى سير عمل قابل للتحقق:
-
-```text
-فتح الهدف
-  → انتظار اكتمال تحليل Hopper
-  → جرد المعماريات والرموز والسلاسل النصية
-  → تحديد نقاط الدخول والدوال المهمة
-  → تتبع الاستدعاءات والمراجع المتبادلة وتدفق التحكم
-  → فك ترجمة التنفيذ ذي الصلة
-  → تلخيص السلوك والقيود والحالات الطرفية
-  → بناء الميزة بما يلائم تقنيات المشروع ومتطلباته
-```
-
-## ما الذي يمكنك فعله؟
-
-### فهم تطبيق لا تملك مصدره
-
-اكشف نقاط الدخول، وأسماء الفئات، والسلاسل النصية، والأطر المستخدمة، ومسارات الميزات من الملف التنفيذي وحده.
-
-### بناء ميزة تعجبك بطريقتك
-
-استقصِ الميزة، وافهم سلوكها، ثم ابنِ نسخة ملائمة لمنتجك وتقنياتك ومتطلباتك.
-
-### توثيق بروتوكول أو تنسيق غير موثق
-
-تتبع الموزعات، والثوابت، والمقارنات، والقراءة والكتابة لفهم الرسائل وتنسيقات الملفات وآلات الحالات.
-
-### إعادة إنشاء سلوك متوافق
-
-حوّل منطقًا مفكوك الترجمة إلى مواصفات واضحة، ثم نفذ بديلًا نظيفًا تحكمه اختبارات السلوك الملحوظ.
-
-### تدقيق منطق أمني حساس
-
-افحص التحقق من الإدخال، والتشفير، والصلاحيات، والتخزين، ومسارات الأخطاء من دون رفع الملف التنفيذي إلى خدمة بعيدة.

-## خطة العمل
-
-يشمل العمل التالي توسيع التحقق من الأهداف الأصلية، ومقارنة إصدارات JavaScript و.NET، ومراقبة وقت التشغيل والتحقق من إعادة الإنشاء. يتيح Setup بالفعل اختيار تكامل الوكيل وتثبيت Hopper. تثبيت أدوات تحليل أخرى ما زال عملًا لاحقًا. راجع [خطة التثبيت](docs/roadmap.md) و[تقييم أدوات التحليل](docs/provider-evaluation.md).
-
-## استخدام REA مع وكلاء برمجة آخرين
-
-يدعم Setup Claude Code وClaude Desktop وCodex وCursor وGemini CLI وWindsurf وDevin وOpenCode وAntigravity وGitHub Copilot CLI وCommand Code وVS Code. تكون تسجيلات REA الموجودة محددة افتراضياً، ويجب اختيار العملاء المكتشفين الآخرين يدوياً. يمكن لأي وكيل يدعم خوادم MCP المحلية الاتصال باستخدام الإعداد التالي:
-
-<!-- x-release-please-start-version -->
-
-```json
-{
-  "mcpServers": {
-    "rea": {
-      "command": "npx",
-      "args": ["-y", "rea-agents@4.1.0", "mcp"]
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-<!-- x-release-please-end -->
-
-## كيف يعمل؟
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart LR
-    Human[المستخدم] --> Agent[وكيل البرمجة]

-    Hopper --> App[تطبيقك]
-    REA --> Ghidra[تحليل Ghidra للقراءة فقط<br/>جرد + تحليل الدوال]
-    Ghidra --> App
-```
-
-يستخدم CLI وخادم MCP سير عمل التحليل نفسه. تحرر أوامر الطرفية جلسة الجسر الخاصة بها عند انتهائها، بينما يمكن لجلسة الوكيل الحفاظ على الاتصال أثناء الاستقصاء. إغلاق جلسة REA لا يغلق تطبيق Hopper الذي يستخدمه المستخدم.
-
-## أوامر CLI
-
-سير عمل الوكيل أعلاه هو أسهل طريقة لاستخدام REA. للحصول على نظرة سريعة على تطبيق من الطرفية:
-
-```bash
-npx -y rea-agents@latest analyze /Applications/Notes.app
-npx -y rea-agents@latest compare /absolute/path/to/left-evidence.json /absolute/path/to/right-evidence.json
-```
-
-شغّل `npx -y rea-agents@latest --help` لمعرفة خيارات فك الترجمة المباشر والخيارات الأخرى.
-
-يمكن لـ REA فتح مجلد `.app` على Mac مباشرة. إذا لم يعثر الوكيل على التطبيق، فأخبره بمكان تثبيته.
-
-## سلوك Hopper
-
-يشغّل REA برنامج Hopper عند الحاجة. على macOS قد تظهر نافذته في المقدمة أو يحتاج أحد الحوارات إلى استجابة منك. لا يمكن ضمان بقاء النافذة في الخلفية.
-
-يحدد REA تنسيق الهدف ومعماريته لتجنب حوارات الاختيار المعتادة. عند إغلاق الجلسة، يوقف الجسر وينظف موارده الخاصة، لكنه لا يغلق تطبيق Hopper الذي تستخدمه.
-
-## الأمان والخصوصية
-
- يبقى التحليل محليًا بين REA وموفر التحليل المختار عبر مقابس محلية خاصة، ومع IDA عبر تسجيل MCP المحلي المضبوط.
- لا يرفع REA الأهداف إلى خدمة مستضافة.
- تعمل أدوات التحليل والأهداف المطلقة بصلاحيات المستخدم نفسه؛ وما زال التقاط واجهة النظام على macOS يعتمد على الوصول إلى تسهيلات الاستخدام وتسجيل الشاشة. ولا ينفّذ التحليل الثابت للـ JavaScript الوحدات المستخرجة.
- تستخدم جلسات Ghidra مشروعًا مؤقتًا معزولًا ولا تفتح مشاريع Ghidra التي يملكها المستخدم أو تعدّلها.
- راجع الملفات التنفيذية غير الموثوقة واعزلها كما تفعل مع أي مدخل أصلي قد يكون ضارًا.
- أبلغ عن الثغرات وفق [سياسة الأمان](SECURITY.md)، وليس عبر قضية عامة.
-
-## الأسئلة الشائعة
-
-<details>
-<summary><strong>هل يتضمن REA محرك فك ترجمة خاصًا به؟</strong></summary>
-
-لا. يستطيع Setup تثبيت Hopper، لكنه يظل برنامجًا منفصلًا بترخيص خاص به. يوفر REA واجهة CLI وخادم MCP وسير العمل المخصص للوكلاء.
-
-</details>
-
-<details>
-<summary><strong>هل يجب أن يكون Hopper مفتوحًا مسبقًا؟</strong></summary>
-
-لا. يستطيع REA تشغيله. لكن Hopper قد يصبح مرئيًا أو يطلب إدخالًا عند الحاجة إلى قرار تفاعلي.
-
-</details>
-
-<details>
-<summary><strong>هل يعمل REA على Linux أو Windows؟</strong></summary>
-
-يدعم REA نظام macOS 12+ وUbuntu 24.04+ وFedora 41+ وArch Linux بنواة 64 بت. يعمل تحليل Ghidra للقراءة فقط على Linux x64 وmacOS x64/arm64 مع Ghidra 12.1.x وJDK الكامل الذي يعلنه التثبيت (JDK 21 أو أحدث دون حد أعلى في إصدارات 12.1 الحالية)، إضافة إلى حد Windows x64 P0 التجريبي لتطبيقات PE الأصلية x86-64 على NTFS محلي؛ راجع [دليل Windows Ghidra P0](docs/windows-ghidra-p0.md) للنطاق الموثق.
-
-</details>
-
-<details>
-<summary><strong>هل يمكنني تحليل قواعد Hopper المحفوظة؟</strong></summary>
-
-نعم. يدعم وقت التشغيل الملفات التنفيذية وقواعد `.hop`.

-
-アプリの機能を自分のプロダクトにも取り入れたいときは、REA を使ってエージェントに調査を依頼できます。ソースコードがなくても、アプリを調べ、仕組みと根拠を示し、あなたのプロジェクト向けに同様の機能を実装できます。
-
-REA はネイティブバイナリ、JavaScript/Electron アプリ、.NET アセンブリ、Web サイトの解析ツールを提供します。エージェントからもターミナルからも使えます。解析はローカルで実行され、結果には根拠と制限が含まれます。
-
-Setup はエージェントを設定し、既存の Hopper または Ghidra に接続します。承認後に Hopper をインストールすることもできます。
-
-## エージェントに頼むだけ
-
-[セットアップ](#クイックスタート)後にエージェントを再起動し、次のように依頼します：
-
-```text
-メモアプリの検索機能を調べて根拠を示し、私のプロジェクト向けに同様の機能を実装してください。
-```
-
-メモアプリを調べたいアプリに置き換えるか、まず概要を依頼してください。

-
-## クイックスタート
-
-### セットアップを実行（推奨）
-
-REA をエージェントで使うための設定を行います：
-
-```bash
-npx rea-agents setup
-```
-
-Setup は最初に連携するエージェントを複数選択できるようにします。既存の REA 登録は初期選択されますが、検出されただけのクライアントは自動選択されず、未設定のクライアントも選べます。具体的なパスと変更内容を確認してから承認してください。選択したエージェントには通常 REA のワークフローをインストールします。Hopper は別の任意操作で、個別の承認が必要です。既存の Ghidra のパスも登録できます。
-
-変更は事前に表示され、既存の設定はバックアップされます。要件と追加オプションは[インストールガイド](docs/installation.md)を参照してください。
-
-### エージェントで使う
-
-設定後にエージェントを再起動し、調べたいアプリや機能を説明します。REA は Claude Code、Claude Desktop、Codex、Cursor、Gemini CLI、Windsurf、Devin、OpenCode、Antigravity、GitHub Copilot CLI、Command Code、VS Code に対応します。既存の REA 登録は初期選択され、それ以外の検出済みクライアントは選択が必要です。その他のエージェントは下記の MCP 設定を使えます。
-
-Hopper はデモモードで使えます。初回起動の画面ではデモを選択するか、既存のライセンスを入力してください。
-
-### AI コーディングアシスタント向けスキル（任意）
-
-AI コーディングアシスタントにスキルを追加すると、より豊富なコンテキストが得られます：
-
-```bash
-npx skills add morluto/rea --skill reverse-engineer-anything
-```
-
-このスキルは REA の調査ワークフローを提供します。上記の setup を実行して REA をエージェントに接続し、解析ツールを設定してください。Setup は既定でバージョンに合ったスキルをインストールします。このコマンドではリポジトリ版のスキルをインストールします。
-
-展開済みの JavaScript/Electron アプリのツリーや ASAR であれば、MCP の設定もネイティブエンジンも不要です：
-
-```bash
-npx -y rea-agents@latest analyze-javascript-application /absolute/path/to/app --json
-```
-
-パスを調査対象に置き換えてください（Windows では `"D:/apps/example"` のようなパス）。この静的ワークフローではそのようなパスも扱えます。ネイティブ解析には専用のエンジン設定が必要です。
-
-### rea コマンドをインストール
-
-コマンドラインツールをインストールします：
-
-```bash
-curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/morluto/rea/main/install.sh | bash
-```
-
-Node.js と npm を先にインストールしてください。ターミナルで実行すると、インストーラーは `rea` を追加してセットアップを開始します。
-
-npm でインストールし、セットアップを実行することもできます：
-
-```bash
-npm install --global rea-agents
-rea setup
-```
-
-### 要件
-
- macOS 12 以降
- Ubuntu 24.04+、Fedora 41+、または 64 ビット Arch Linux
- Node.js 22.x (>=22.19)、24.x (>=24.11)、または 26+ と npm
-
-ネイティブバイナリ解析には Hopper または Ghidra が必要です。Hopper は別製品です。デモにはベンダー所定の制限がありますが、有料ライセンスは必須ではありません。
-
-Ghidra は Linux x64 と macOS x64/arm64 に対応します。Ghidra 12.1.x と、そのインストールが宣言する完全な 64 ビット JDK（`application.java.min` から `application.java.max` まで）を別途インストールし、REA で使うように設定してください。現行の 12.1 リリースは JDK 21 以降を要求し、上限は設定しません。ブリッジは Ghidra 12.1.4 と JDK 21 で検証しています。macOS ではホストのアーキテクチャに合うネイティブデコンパイラーも必要です。
-
-Setup はインストールを確認し、パスを保存できます。Ghidra、Java、Node.js、npm、Homebrew のインストールや更新は行いません。
-
-リポジトリの main と npm 4.1.0 には、ローカル NTFS 上のネイティブ x86-64 PE アプリケーション（非マネージド、非 DLL 向け）を対象とする実験的な Windows x64 Ghidra P0 対応が含まれています。Job Object、プライベート DACL、パス許可の各制御が同梱されています。古い npm パッケージに期待する前に[リリース境界](docs/installation.md#released-package-and-main)を確認してください。前提条件と検証済みの範囲は [Windows Ghidra P0](docs/windows-ghidra-p0.md) を参照してください。
-
-### トラブルシューティング
-
-`npx -y rea-agents@latest doctor` はホスト、依存関係、解析ツール、エージェント設定を変更せずに確認します。構造化された診断には `--json` を追加してください。
-
-Linux の既定ランチャーは `/opt/hopper/bin/Hopper` です。別の場所には `HOPPER_LAUNCHER_PATH` を設定します。ファイルがあるのに解析エンジンが見つからない場合は、`ldd /opt/hopper/bin/Hopper | grep 'not found'` で不足ライブラリを確認してください。詳しくは [Hopper ガイド](docs/installation.md#hopper)を参照してください。
-
-### 更新とアンインストール
-
- `rea update` は現在の REA インストールを更新します。
- `rea uninstall` は REA が管理するエージェント登録とワークフローファイルを削除します。Hopper は残ります。
- `rea uninstall --purge-data` は REA のキャッシュと状態も削除します。それらを削除したい場合にだけ使ってください。
-
-## 現在の対応状況
-
-リポジトリの現在の機能とプラットフォーム要件は[英語の対応状況ガイド](README.md#current-status)で説明しています。main は [npm リリース](docs/installation.md#released-package-and-main)より先行する場合があります。
-
- Ghidra は Linux x64、macOS x64/arm64、実験的な Windows x64 P0 境界で 25 件の読み取り専用操作を提供します。Linux/macOS ではアトミックなセッション内関数注釈にも対応します。Windows P0 は読み取り専用であり、Ghidra に GUI 操作はありません。
- 静的な Android 検査には持ち込みの JADX/Java が別途必要です。実プロバイダー検証は Linux を対象とします。詳しくは[Android 解析](docs/android-analysis.md)を参照してください。
- ブラウザー、Electron、プロセスの各リクエストは対象・操作・ライフサイクルを直接指定し、ホストの実際のアクセスに依存します。REA 側の個別の許可付与は不要です。Setup による設定書き込みと Hopper のインストールは、引き続き正確な計画の承認が必要です。
- `rea capabilities` はバイナリセッション操作の説明であり、すべてのアプリ／ランタイムツールの目録ではありません。接続済み MCP ツール一覧と関連ガイドを参照してください。
-
-## ひとつのプロンプトで調査を完結
-
-```text
-メモアプリをリバースエンジニアリングし、オフライン検索機能の仕組みを説明して、
-TypeScript と SQLite を使って私のプロジェクト向けに実装してください。
-```
-

-|    2 | オフライン検索の手掛かりを探す | `search_strings`, `search_procedures`, `list_names`              |
-|    3 | 手掛かりと実行コードを接続     | `find_xrefs_to_name`, `xrefs`, `procedure_callers`               |
-|    4 | 制御フローを復元               | `get_call_graph`, `procedure_callees`, `procedure_info`          |
-|    5 | 関連する処理を逆コンパイル     | `procedure_pseudo_code`, `procedure_assembly`, `batch_decompile` |
-|    6 | プロジェクトに機能を実装する   | 技術スタック、プロダクト、要件に合わせたコード                   |
-
-REA は手順 1〜5 のバイナリ解析を処理し、手順 6 はエージェントの通常の編集・テストツールが行います。
-
-## エージェントにできること
-
- ソースコードがない機能の仕組みを説明する。
- アプリの認証、保存、更新、ネットワークフローを復元する。
- 非公開の形式やインターフェースを文書化できる構造を回収する。
- 文字列やシンボルから疑わしい動作の実装コードまで追跡する。
- 同じセッションで 2 バージョンを切り替え、実装経路を比較する。
- 気になる機能を調査し、自分のプロダクトに合わせた形で実装する。
- 復元した動作をプロダクト機能、テスト、移行ノート、移植、相互運用できる代替実装へ変換する。
- Swift / Objective-C のメタデータを解析する。
- Hopper に名前、コメント、ブックマークを残し、人間とエージェントの調査を共有する。

-## ロードマップ
-
-次の作業はネイティブ対象の検証拡大、JavaScript と .NET のバージョン比較、実行時の観察と再実装の検証です。Setup はエージェント連携と Hopper のインストールを選択できます。他の解析ツールのインストールは今後の作業です。[インストールのロードマップ](docs/roadmap.md)と[解析ツールの評価](docs/provider-evaluation.md)を参照してください。
-
-## 他のコーディングエージェントで使う
-
-Setup は Claude Code、Claude Desktop、Codex、Cursor、Gemini CLI、Windsurf、Devin、OpenCode、Antigravity、GitHub Copilot CLI、Command Code、VS Code に対応します。既存の REA 登録は初期選択され、それ以外の検出済みクライアントは選択が必要です。ローカル MCP サーバーに対応するエージェントは、次の設定でも接続できます。
-
-<!-- x-release-please-start-version -->
-
-```json
-{
-  "mcpServers": {
-    "rea": {
-      "command": "npx",
-      "args": ["-y", "rea-agents@4.1.0", "mcp"]
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-<!-- x-release-please-end -->
-
-## 仕組み
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart LR
-    Agent["コーディングエージェント"] --> REA["REA<br/>CLI + MCP"]
-    Terminal["ターミナル"] --> REA
-    REA --> Hopper["Hopper 解析操作"]
-    Hopper --> App["あなたのアプリ"]
-    REA --> Ghidra["Ghidra 読み取り専用解析<br/>インベントリ + 関数解析"]
-    Ghidra --> App
-```
-
-CLI と MCP サーバーは同じ解析処理を使います。ターミナルコマンドは完了後に自分のブリッジセッションを解放し、エージェントセッションは調査中の接続を維持できます。REA セッションを閉じても、ユーザーが利用中の Hopper は終了しません。
-
-## CLI
-
-上のエージェントワークフローが、REA を使う最も簡単な方法です。ターミナルから一度だけアプリの概要を調べる場合は、次を実行します。
-
-```bash
-npx -y rea-agents@latest analyze /Applications/Notes.app
-```
-
-直接デコンパイルする方法やその他のオプションは、`npx -y rea-agents@latest --help` で確認できます。
-
-グローバルな `rea` コマンドとしてもインストールできます。
-
-```bash
-npm install --global rea-agents
-rea --help
-rea mcp
-```
-
-REA は Mac の `.app` フォルダーを直接開けます。エージェントがアプリを見つけられない場合は、インストール場所を伝えてください。
-
-## Hopper アプリの動作
-
-REA は必要なときに Hopper を起動します。Hopper のランチャーは内部でアプリをアクティブ化するため、ターゲットを開くと Hopper が前面に出る場合があります。REA はバックグラウンド起動を要求しますが、常に背面に留まる保証はありません。
-
-明示的な形式・アーキテクチャ引数により一般的な FAT / ARM 選択ダイアログを避けますが、別の Hopper / macOS ダイアログは人の操作を必要とする場合があります。セッションを閉じるとブリッジとソケットを削除しますが、ユーザーが利用中の Hopper は終了しません。
-
-## セキュリティモデル
-
-各セッションはランダムな capability token と現在のユーザーだけが使える Unix ソケットを使用します。Ghidra セッションは隔離された一時プロジェクトも使用し、ユーザー所有の Ghidra プロジェクトを開いたり変更したりしません。これはサンドボックスではなく、同じ OS ユーザー権限で動作する悪意あるプロセスを防御しません。信頼できないバイナリの解析は、現在のユーザー権限で選択されたローカルプロバイダーに委譲されます。脆弱性は [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md) の非公開手順で報告してください。
-
-## FAQ
-
-<details><summary><strong>Hopper を先に起動する必要がありますか？</strong></summary>
-
-いいえ。REA が必要時に起動します。Hopper が起動済みでも使えますが、既存の GUI ドキュメントには接続せず、新しい解析ドキュメントを開きます。
-
-</details>
-
-<details><summary><strong>REA に Hopper は含まれますか？</strong></summary>
-
-含まれません。Setup で Hopper をインストールできますが、Hopper は独自のライセンスを持つ別製品です。REA は CLI、MCP サーバー、エージェント向けワークフローを提供します。
-
-</details>
-
-<details><summary><strong>バイナリはアップロードされますか？</strong></summary>
-
-REA にホスト型解析サービスはありません。ローカル Unix ソケット経由で Hopper を操作します。エージェントやモデル提供者のデータポリシーは別途確認してください。
-
-</details>
-
-<details><summary><strong>元のソースコードを復元できますか？</strong></summary>
-
-保証できません。REA は疑似コード、アセンブリ、シンボル、文字列、メタデータ、関係を提供し、エージェントが観察した動作を説明または互換再現できるようにします。

-
-앱에서 마음에 드는 기능을 찾았다면 에이전트에게 REA로 조사해 달라고 요청하세요. 소스 코드가 없어도 앱을 분석하고, 기능의 동작과 근거를 설명한 뒤, 프로젝트에 맞는 기능을 구현할 수 있습니다.
-
-REA는 네이티브 바이너리, JavaScript/Electron 앱, .NET 어셈블리, 웹사이트 분석 도구를 제공합니다. 에이전트와 터미널에서 같은 도구를 사용할 수 있습니다. 분석은 로컬에서 실행되며 결과에는 근거와 제한 사항이 포함됩니다.
-
-Setup은 에이전트를 설정하고 기존 Hopper 또는 Ghidra 설치에 연결합니다. 승인 후 Hopper를 설치할 수도 있습니다.
-
-## 에이전트에게 바로 요청하기
-
-[설정](#빠른-시작)을 마친 뒤 에이전트를 다시 시작하고 요청하세요.
-
-```text
-메모 앱의 검색 기능이 어떻게 동작하는지 조사하고 근거를 보여 주세요.
-그다음 제 프로젝트에 비슷한 기능을 구현해 주세요.
-```

-
-## 빠른 시작
-
-### 설정 실행하기(권장)
-
-REA를 에이전트에 연결하세요.
-
-```bash
-npx rea-agents setup
-```
-
-Setup은 먼저 연결할 에이전트를 여러 개 선택하도록 안내합니다. 기존 REA 등록은 기본 선택되며, 감지만 된 클라이언트는 자동 선택되지 않습니다. 아직 설정되지 않은 클라이언트도 직접 선택할 수 있습니다. 정확한 경로와 변경 사항을 검토한 뒤 승인하세요. 선택한 에이전트에는 기본적으로 REA 워크플로가 설치됩니다. Hopper는 별도의 선택 사항이며 따로 승인해야 합니다. 기존 Ghidra 경로도 등록할 수 있습니다.
-
-변경 전에 계획을 표시하고 기존 설정을 백업합니다. 요구 사항과 추가 옵션은 [설치 안내](docs/installation.md)를 참고하세요.
-
-### 에이전트에서 사용하기
-
-설정 후 에이전트를 다시 시작하고 조사할 앱이나 기능을 설명하세요. REA는 Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Devin, OpenCode, Antigravity, GitHub Copilot CLI, Command Code, VS Code를 지원합니다. 기존 REA 등록은 기본 선택되고, 그 밖의 감지된 클라이언트는 직접 선택해야 합니다. 다른 에이전트는 아래 MCP 설정을 사용할 수 있습니다.
-
-Hopper는 데모 모드로 사용할 수 있습니다. 첫 실행 안내가 나오면 데모를 선택하거나 기존 라이선스를 입력하세요.
-
-### AI 코딩 어시스턴트용 스킬(선택)
-
-AI 코딩 어시스턴트에 스킬을 추가하면 더 풍부한 컨텍스트를 얻을 수 있습니다.
-
-```bash
-npx skills add morluto/rea --skill reverse-engineer-anything
-```
-
-이 스킬은 REA의 조사 워크플로를 제공합니다. 위 setup을 실행해 REA를 에이전트에 연결하고 분석 도구를 설정하세요. Setup은 기본적으로 버전에 맞는 스킬을 설치합니다. 이 명령은 저장소 버전의 스킬을 설치합니다.
-
-압축을 해제한 JavaScript/Electron 앱 트리나 ASAR라면 MCP 설정이나 네이티브 엔진 없이 바로 분석할 수 있습니다.
-
-```bash
-npx -y rea-agents@latest analyze-javascript-application /absolute/path/to/app --json
-```
-
-경로를 조사 대상으로 바꾸세요(Windows에서는 `"D:/apps/example"` 같은 경로). 이 정적 워크플로에서는 이런 경로도 지원됩니다. 네이티브 분석에는 전용 엔진 설정이 필요합니다.
-
-### rea 명령 설치하기
-
-명령줄 도구를 설치하세요.
-
-```bash
-curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/morluto/rea/main/install.sh | bash
-```
-
-Node.js와 npm이 먼저 설치되어 있어야 합니다. 터미널에서 실행하면 설치 프로그램이 `rea`를 설치하고 설정을 시작합니다.
-
-npm으로 설치한 뒤 설정을 실행할 수도 있습니다.
-
-```bash
-npm install --global rea-agents
-rea setup
-```
-
-### 요구 사항
-
- macOS 12 이상
- Ubuntu 24.04+, Fedora 41+ 또는 64비트 Arch Linux
- Node.js 22.x (>=22.19), 24.x (>=24.11) 또는 26+와 npm
-
-네이티브 바이너리 분석에는 Hopper 또는 Ghidra가 필요합니다. Hopper는 별도 소프트웨어입니다. 데모에는 공급업체의 제한이 있지만 유료 라이선스가 필수는 아닙니다.
-
-Ghidra는 Linux x64와 macOS x64/arm64를 지원합니다. Ghidra 12.1.x와 그 설치본이 선언한 완전한 64비트 JDK(`application.java.min`부터 `application.java.max`까지)를 별도로 설치한 뒤 REA가 사용하도록 설정하세요. 현재 12.1 릴리스는 JDK 21 이상을 요구하고 상한은 없습니다. 브리지는 Ghidra 12.1.4와 JDK 21에서 검증됩니다. macOS에서는 호스트 아키텍처에 맞는 네이티브 디컴파일러도 필요합니다.
-
-Setup은 설치를 확인하고 경로를 저장할 수 있습니다. Ghidra, Java, Node.js, npm, Homebrew를 설치하거나 업데이트하지 않습니다.
-
-저장소 main과 npm 4.1.0에는 로컬 NTFS상의 네이티브 x86-64 PE 애플리케이션(비관리, 비 DLL 대상)을 위한 실험적인 Windows x64 Ghidra P0 지원이 포함되어 있습니다. Job Object, 비공개 DACL, 경로 승인 제어가 함께 제공됩니다. 이전 npm 패키지에 이 기능이 있을 것으로 기대하기 전에 [릴리스 경계](docs/installation.md#released-package-and-main)를 확인하세요. 전제 조건과 검증 범위는 [Windows Ghidra P0](docs/windows-ghidra-p0.md)를 참고하세요.
-
-### 문제 해결
-
-`npx -y rea-agents@latest doctor`는 호스트, 의존성, 분석 도구, 에이전트 설정을 변경 없이 확인합니다. 구조화된 진단에는 `--json`을 추가하세요.
-
-Linux의 기본 Hopper 실행 파일은 `/opt/hopper/bin/Hopper`입니다. 다른 위치에는 `HOPPER_LAUNCHER_PATH`를 설정하세요. 파일이 있는데도 분석 엔진이 없다고 하면 `ldd /opt/hopper/bin/Hopper | grep 'not found'`로 누락된 라이브러리를 확인하세요. 자세한 내용은 [Hopper 안내](docs/installation.md#hopper)를 참고하세요.
-
-### 업데이트와 제거
-
- `rea update`는 현재 REA 설치를 업데이트합니다.
- `rea uninstall`은 REA가 관리하는 에이전트 등록과 워크플로 파일을 제거합니다. Hopper는 유지합니다.
- `rea uninstall --purge-data`는 REA 캐시와 상태도 삭제합니다. 해당 데이터를 지우려는 경우에만 사용하세요.
-
-## 현재 지원 범위
-
-저장소의 현재 기능과 플랫폼 요구 사항은 [영문 지원 가이드](README.md#current-status)에 설명되어 있습니다. main은 [npm 릴리스](docs/installation.md#released-package-and-main)보다 앞설 수 있습니다.
-
- Ghidra는 Linux x64, macOS x64/arm64, 실험적인 Windows x64 P0 경계에서 25개의 읽기 전용 작업을 제공합니다. Linux/macOS에서는 원자적 세션 함수 주석도 추가로 지원합니다. Windows P0는 읽기 전용이며 Ghidra에는 GUI 제어가 없습니다.
- 정적 Android 검사는 별도로 준비한 JADX/Java가 필요합니다. 실제 제공자 검증은 Linux를 대상으로 합니다. [Android 분석](docs/android-analysis.md)을 참고하세요.
- 브라우저, Electron, 프로세스 요청은 대상·동작·수명 주기를 직접 지정하며 호스트의 실제 접근에 의존합니다. 별도의 REA 권한 승인은 필요 없습니다. Setup의 설정 쓰기와 Hopper 설치는 여전히 정확한 계획에 대한 승인이 필요합니다.
- `rea capabilities`는 모든 앱/런타임 도구의 목록이 아니라 바이너리 세션 작업을 설명합니다. 연결된 MCP 도구 목록과 관련 가이드를 참고하세요.
-

-
-REA는 1–5단계의 바이너리 분석을 처리합니다. 6단계는 에이전트가 일반 파일 편집 및 테스트 도구로 수행합니다.
-
-## 에이전트가 할 수 있는 일
-
- 소스 코드가 없는 기능의 동작을 설명합니다.
- 앱의 인증, 저장소, 업데이트 또는 네트워크 흐름을 재구성합니다.
- 문서화되지 않은 형식이나 인터페이스의 구조를 복구합니다.
- 문자열이나 심볼에서 의심스러운 동작을 구현한 코드까지 추적합니다.
- 한 세션에서 두 앱 버전을 전환하며 구현 경로를 비교합니다.
- 마음에 드는 기능을 조사하고 자신의 제품에 맞는 버전으로 구현합니다.
- 복구한 동작을 제품 기능, 테스트, 마이그레이션 문서, 포팅 또는 상호 운용 가능한 대체품으로 변환합니다.
- Swift 및 Objective-C 메타데이터를 분석합니다.
- Hopper에 이름, 주석, 북마크를 남겨 사람과 에이전트의 분석을 연결합니다.

-## 로드맵
-
-다음 작업은 네이티브 대상 검증 확대, JavaScript와 .NET의 버전 비교, 런타임 관찰과 재구현 검증입니다. Setup은 에이전트 연결과 Hopper 설치 선택을 이미 지원합니다. 다른 분석 도구 설치는 향후 작업입니다. [설치 로드맵](docs/roadmap.md)과 [분석 도구 평가](docs/provider-evaluation.md)를 참고하세요.
-
-## 다른 코딩 에이전트에서 사용하기
-
-Setup은 Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Devin, OpenCode, Antigravity, GitHub Copilot CLI, Command Code, VS Code를 지원합니다. 기존 REA 등록은 기본 선택되고, 그 밖의 감지된 클라이언트는 직접 선택해야 합니다. 로컬 MCP 서버를 지원하는 에이전트는 다음 설정으로 연결할 수 있습니다.

-
-CLI와 MCP 서버는 같은 분석 워크플로를 사용합니다. 터미널 명령은 완료 후 자신의 브리지 세션을 해제하고, 에이전트 세션은 조사 중 연결을 유지할 수 있습니다. REA 세션을 닫아도 사용자가 이용 중인 Hopper 앱은 종료하지 않습니다.
-
-## CLI
-
-위의 에이전트 워크플로가 REA를 사용하는 가장 쉬운 방법입니다. 터미널에서 앱을 한 번 빠르게 살펴보려면 다음을 실행하세요.
-
-```bash
-npx -y rea-agents@latest analyze /Applications/Notes.app
-```
-
-직접 디컴파일하는 방법과 기타 옵션은 `npx -y rea-agents@latest --help`에서 확인할 수 있습니다.
-
-전역 `rea` 명령으로 설치할 수도 있습니다.
-
-```bash
-npm install --global rea-agents
-rea --help
-rea mcp
-```
-
-REA는 Mac의 `.app` 폴더를 직접 열 수 있습니다. 에이전트가 앱을 찾지 못하면 설치 위치를 알려 주세요.
-
-## Hopper 앱 동작
-
-REA는 필요할 때 Hopper를 시작합니다. Hopper 런처는 내부적으로 앱을 활성화하므로 대상을 열 때 Hopper가 다른 창 앞으로 나타날 수 있습니다. REA는 백그라운드 시작을 요청하지만 항상 뒤에 머무르는 것을 보장할 수 없습니다.
-
-명시적인 형식과 아키텍처 인자로 일반적인 FAT/ARM 선택 대화상자를 피하지만, 다른 Hopper 또는 macOS 대화상자에는 사람이 응답해야 할 수 있습니다. 세션 종료 시 브리지와 소켓 디렉터리를 제거하지만 사용자가 작업 중인 Hopper 앱은 종료하지 않습니다.
-
-## 보안 모델
-
-각 세션은 무작위 capability token과 현재 사용자 전용 Unix 소켓을 사용합니다. Ghidra 세션은 격리된 임시 프로젝트도 사용하며 사용자 소유 Ghidra 프로젝트를 열거나 수정하지 않습니다. 이는 샌드박스가 아니며 같은 운영 체제 사용자로 실행되는 악성 프로세스를 방어하지 않습니다. 신뢰할 수 없는 바이너리를 열면 선택한 로컬 공급자가 현재 사용자 권한으로 분석합니다. 취약점은 [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md)의 비공개 절차로 신고하세요.
-
-## FAQ
-
-<details><summary><strong>Hopper를 미리 실행해야 하나요?</strong></summary>
-
-아니요. REA가 필요할 때 시작합니다. Hopper가 실행 중이어도 사용할 수 있지만 기존 GUI 문서에 연결하는 대신 새 분석 문서를 엽니다.
-
-</details>
-
-<details><summary><strong>REA에 Hopper가 포함되나요?</strong></summary>
-
-아니요. Setup이 Hopper를 설치할 수 있지만 Hopper는 자체 라이선스가 필요한 별도 소프트웨어입니다. REA는 CLI, MCP 서버, 에이전트용 워크플로를 제공합니다.
-
-</details>
-
-<details><summary><strong>바이너리가 업로드되나요?</strong></summary>
-
-REA에는 호스팅 분석 서비스가 없습니다. 로컬 Unix 소켓을 통해 Hopper를 조작합니다. 에이전트나 모델 공급자의 데이터 정책은 별도로 확인하세요.
-
-</details>
-
-<details><summary><strong>원본 소스 코드를 복구할 수 있나요?</strong></summary>
-
-보장할 수 없습니다. REA는 의사 코드, 어셈블리, 심볼, 문자열, 메타데이터 및 관계를 제공하여 에이전트가 관찰된 동작을 설명하거나 호환되게 재현하도록 돕습니다.

-
-看到某个应用中想加入自己产品的功能？让智能体用 REA 调查它。即使没有源代码，智能体也可以检查应用、解释功能的工作方式、展示证据，并为你的项目实现类似功能。
-
-REA 提供原生二进制、JavaScript 与 Electron 应用、.NET 程序集和网站的分析工具。你可以从智能体或终端使用它们。分析在本机运行，结果会说明证据和限制。
-
-Setup 可以配置智能体、连接已安装的 Hopper 或 Ghidra，也可以在你批准后安装 Hopper。
-
-## 直接询问智能体
-
-完成[设置](#快速开始)后，重启智能体并提出问题：
-
-```text
-解释“备忘录”应用的搜索功能，展示证据，然后为我的项目实现类似功能。
-```
-
-把“备忘录”替换成你想了解的应用，也可以先请求概览。
-
-## 从二进制到行为
-
-| 反编译                                                                       | 理解                                                                                   | 重建                                                         |
-| ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| 打开原生应用或可执行文件，恢复过程、伪代码、汇编、字符串、符号、段和元数据。 | 沿调用者、被调用者、交叉引用和调用图追踪，直到智能体能够解释功能或算法的实际工作方式。 | 将智能体学到的内容变成适合你的技术栈、界面和需求的产品功能。 |
-
-REA 让调查始终以二进制证据为依据。它不会声称能恢复原始源代码，也不会自动克隆整个应用。
-
-## 为什么选择 REA
-
-|                  |                                                                      |
-| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| **为智能体设计** | 直接询问应用的行为，让智能体去检查，而不是猜测。                     |
-| **CLI 与 MCP**   | 在终端或智能体中使用同一套逆向工程能力。                             |
-| **引导式设置**   | 配置智能体、连接已有分析工具，或在你批准后安装 Hopper。              |
-| **从洞察到代码** | 理解功能后，在同一次编程会话中构建属于你自己的版本。                 |
-| **本地运行**     | 分析在受支持的本机系统上运行；REA 不会把二进制上传到托管式分析服务。 |
-| **保留上下文**   | 连续调查多个应用，无需为每个问题重新开始整个分析过程。               |
-
-## 快速开始
-
-### 运行设置（推荐）
-
-配置 REA 与智能体的连接：
-
-```bash
-npx rea-agents setup
-```
-
-Setup 首先让你多选要连接的智能体。已有 REA 注册默认选中；仅被检测到的客户端不会自动选中，也可以手动选择尚未配置的客户端。查看具体路径和变更后再批准。所选智能体默认安装 REA 工作流；Hopper 是单独的可选操作，需要单独批准。Setup 也可以记录现有 Ghidra 的路径。
-
-Setup 会先展示变更并备份已有配置。要求与更多选项见[安装与设置](docs/installation.md)。
-
-### 使用智能体
-
-设置完成后，重启智能体并描述你想了解的应用或功能。REA 支持 Claude Code、Claude Desktop、Codex、Cursor、Gemini CLI、Windsurf、Devin、OpenCode、Antigravity、GitHub Copilot CLI、Command Code 和 VS Code。已有 REA 注册默认选中；其他检测到的客户端需手动选择。其他智能体可以使用下方的 MCP 配置。
-
-Hopper 支持演示模式。如果首次启动时出现提示，选择演示模式或输入已有许可证。
-
-### AI 编程助手技能（可选）
-
-为你的 AI 编程助手添加 skill，以获得更丰富的上下文：
-
-```bash
-npx skills add morluto/rea --skill reverse-engineer-anything
-```
-
-该 skill 提供 REA 的调查工作流。先运行上文的 setup，把 REA 连接到你的智能体并配置分析工具。Setup 默认会安装版本匹配的 skill；这条命令安装的是仓库版本。
-
-对于已解包的 JavaScript/Electron 应用目录或 ASAR，无需 MCP 配置，也无需原生引擎：
-
-```bash
-npx -y rea-agents@latest analyze-javascript-application /absolute/path/to/app --json
-```
-
-把路径换成你的目标（例如 Windows 上的 `"D:/apps/example"`）。这条静态流程支持此类路径。原生分析仍需要先配置对应的分析引擎。
-
-### 安装 rea 命令
-
-安装命令行工具：
-
-```bash
-curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/morluto/rea/main/install.sh | bash
-```
-
-需要预先安装 Node.js 和 npm。在终端中运行时，安装程序会安装 `rea` 并启动设置。
-
-也可以用 npm 安装，再运行设置：
-
-```bash
-npm install --global rea-agents
-rea setup
-```
-
-### 系统要求
-
- macOS 12 或更高版本
- Ubuntu 24.04+、Fedora 41+ 或 64 位 Arch Linux
- Node.js 22.x (>=22.19)、24.x (>=24.11) 或 26+，以及 npm
-
-原生二进制分析需要 Hopper 或 Ghidra。Hopper 是独立软件；演示模式有厂商规定的限制，不要求购买许可证。
-
-Ghidra 支持 Linux x64 和 macOS x64/arm64。单独安装 Ghidra 12.1.x，以及该安装在 `application.java.min` 到 `application.java.max` 中声明的完整 64 位 JDK，然后配置 REA 使用它们。当前 12.1 发行版要求 JDK 21 或更新版本，并且不设置上限。桥接在 Ghidra 12.1.4 和 JDK 21 上完成验证。macOS 还需要对应架构的原生反编译器。
-
-Setup 可以验证安装并保存路径，不会安装或升级 Ghidra、Java、Node.js、npm 或 Homebrew。
-
-仓库 main 分支与 npm 4.1.0 已包含实验性的 Windows x64 Ghidra P0 支持，适用于本地 NTFS 上的原生 x86-64 PE 应用（非托管、非 DLL），并附带 Job Object、私有 DACL 与路径准入控制。请先确认[发布边界](docs/installation.md#released-package-and-main)，再假定旧版 npm 包具备该能力。详见 [Windows Ghidra P0](docs/windows-ghidra-p0.md) 的前置条件与已验证范围。
-
-### 故障排除
-
-运行 `npx -y rea-agents@latest doctor`，检查主机、依赖、分析工具和智能体配置。该命令不会修改文件。添加 `--json` 可获取结构化诊断。
-
-Linux 上的默认 Hopper 启动器为 `/opt/hopper/bin/Hopper`。其他路径可通过 `HOPPER_LAUNCHER_PATH` 指定。如果文件存在但仍报告缺少分析引擎，运行 `ldd /opt/hopper/bin/Hopper | grep 'not found'` 检查缺少的系统库。安装详情见 [Hopper 指南](docs/installation.md#hopper)。
-
-### 更新与卸载
-
- `rea update` 更新当前 REA 安装。
- `rea uninstall` 移除 REA 管理的智能体配置项和工作流文件，保留 Hopper。
- `rea uninstall --purge-data` 还会删除 REA 的缓存和状态。仅在需要移除这些数据时使用。
-
-## 当前状态
-
-仓库当前能力与平台要求见[英文支持指南](README.md#current-status)。main 分支可能领先于 [npm 发布版](docs/installation.md#released-package-and-main)。
-
- Ghidra 在 Linux x64、macOS x64/arm64 以及实验性的 Windows x64 P0 边界上提供 25 个只读操作。Linux/macOS 额外支持原子化的会话级函数注释。Windows P0 为只读；Ghidra 不提供 GUI 控制。
- 静态 Android 检查需要自备 JADX/Java，前置条件独立；真机验证覆盖 Linux。详见 [Android 分析](docs/android-analysis.md)。
- 浏览器、Electron 与进程请求需直接声明目标、动作与生命周期，并依赖宿主的实际访问权限，无需 REA 另行授权。Setup 的配置写入与 Hopper 安装仍需逐项批准确切计划。
- `rea capabilities` 描述的是二进制会话操作，而非全部应用/运行时工具。请以已连接 MCP 工具列表与相关指南为准。
-
-## 一个提示词，完成一次完整调查
-
-```text
-逆向工程“备忘录”应用，找到离线搜索功能的工作方式，解释其控制流，
-并使用 TypeScript 和 SQLite 为我的项目构建一个版本。
-```
-
-| 步骤 | 智能体的操作           | REA 工具                                                         |
-| ---: | ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
-|    1 | 打开并识别二进制文件   | `open_binary`, `binary_overview`                                 |
-|    2 | 搜索可能的离线搜索线索 | `search_strings`, `search_procedures`, `list_names`              |
-|    3 | 将线索连接到可执行代码 | `find_xrefs_to_name`, `xrefs`, `procedure_callers`               |
-|    4 | 重建相关控制流         | `get_call_graph`, `procedure_callees`, `procedure_info`          |
-|    5 | 反编译相关程序         | `procedure_pseudo_code`, `procedure_assembly`, `batch_decompile` |
-|    6 | 在你的项目中构建该功能 | 适合你的技术栈、产品和需求的代码                                 |
-
-REA 负责第 1–5 步中的二进制分析。第 6 步由智能体使用其常规文件编辑与测试工具完成。
-
-## 智能体可以完成什么
-
- 在没有源代码时解释某项功能的实现方式。
- 重建应用的身份验证、存储、更新或网络流程。
- 恢复足够的结构，以记录未公开的格式或接口。
- 从字符串或符号追踪到实现可疑行为的代码。
- 在一个会话中切换两个应用版本并比较实现路径。
- 调查你喜欢的功能，并为自己的产品构建量身定制的版本。
- 将恢复的行为转换为产品功能、测试、迁移说明、移植代码或互操作替代品。
- 分析 Swift 和 Objective-C 元数据。
- 在 Hopper 中留下名称、注释与书签，使人与智能体的分析互相增强。

-CLI 与 MCP 服务器使用相同的分析流程。终端命令完成后释放自己创建的桥接会话；智能体会话可以在调查期间保持连接。关闭 REA 会话不会退出用户正在使用的 Hopper 应用。
-
-## CLI
-
-上面的智能体工作流是使用 REA 最简单的方式。如果只想在终端中快速了解一个应用：
-
-```bash
-npx -y rea-agents@latest analyze /Applications/Notes.app
-```
-
-运行 `npx -y rea-agents@latest --help` 查看直接反编译和其他选项。
-
-也可以全局安装 `rea` 命令：
-
-```bash
-npm install --global rea-agents
-rea --help
-rea mcp
-```
-
-REA 可以直接打开 Mac 的 `.app` 文件夹。如果智能体找不到应用，请告诉它应用安装在哪里。
-
-## Hopper 应用行为
-
-REA 会在需要时启动 Hopper，无需预先运行。Hopper 启动器内部会激活应用，因此打开目标时 Hopper 可能出现在其他窗口前。REA 会请求 macOS 在后台启动 Hopper，但无法保证窗口始终位于后台。
-
-REA 会推导明确的格式和架构参数，以避免常见的 FAT 与 ARM 选择对话框。其他 Hopper 或 macOS 对话框仍可能需要人工响应。关闭 REA 会话会终止桥并删除私有套接字目录，但不会退出用户正在使用的 Hopper 应用。
-
-## 安全模型
-
-每个桥会话都使用随机能力令牌和仅限当前用户的 Unix 套接字。诊断保留本机路径、摘要和错误位置等排查信息，同时移除凭据和认证令牌。Ghidra 会话还使用隔离的临时项目，不会打开或修改用户自己的 Ghidra 项目。
-
-这不是沙箱，也无法防御以同一操作系统用户身份运行的恶意进程。打开不可信二进制文件会让所选本地提供商以当前用户权限进行解析和分析。请按照 [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md) 中的私密流程报告漏洞。
-
-## 常见问题
-
-<details><summary><strong>Hopper 是否需要提前运行？</strong></summary>
-
-不需要。REA 会在操作需要时启动 Hopper。Hopper 已经运行时也可以使用，但 REA 会打开新的分析文档，不会连接并复用现有 GUI 文档。
-
-</details>
-
-<details><summary><strong>REA 是否包含 Hopper？</strong></summary>
-
-不包含。Setup 可以为你安装 Hopper，但 Hopper 仍是需要单独授权的软件。REA 提供 CLI、MCP 服务器和面向智能体的工作流。
-
-</details>
-
-<details><summary><strong>REA 会上传我的二进制文件吗？</strong></summary>
-
-REA 不提供托管分析服务，而是通过本地 Unix 套接字把操作交给 Hopper。你的智能体或模型服务商可能有自己的数据政策，请单独核查。
-
-</details>
-
-<details><summary><strong>REA 能恢复原始源代码吗？</strong></summary>
-
-不能保证。REA 提供伪代码、汇编、符号、字符串、元数据和关系，智能体可据此解释或兼容地重建观察到的行为。

+Ghidra's original notice credits software developed at the National Security
+Agency. It explains that US-government-created portions are not subject to US
+copyright protection, while other portions retain their authors' rights. Its
+modules include additional third-party licenses, and standalone programs under
+`GPL/` have GPLv3 terms. The three retained top-level documents do not replace
+the module notices and license directories in a complete Ghidra distribution.
+REA is not affiliated with or endorsed by the NSA.

+## Commercial tools and bridges
+
+**You must legally obtain the tools and the rights needed for your use.** REA
+does not include an IDA Pro, Hex-Rays decompiler, Hopper, or JEB license, license
+key, or activation entitlement. A permitted trial/demo may be used only within

+bypassing activation or license limits are not authorized by REA.

+| IDA Pro and Hex-Rays decompilers | Proprietary Hex-Rays software governed by the [EULA](https://hex-rays.com/eula), purchase agreement, and applicable license scheme. Obtain rights for the required product, user, machine, decompiler, and automation interfaces. Availability of an API or a bridge does not grant hosting, service, or additional-user rights.                                                                                                                           |

It licenses the bridge code, not IDA or Hex-Rays products. Its [README](https://github.com/mrexodia/ida-pro-mcp#prerequisites) requires IDA Pro and explicitly states that IDA Free is unsupported. Follow the prerequisites for the version you actually install. The bridge is separately supplied, not bundled by REA.                 |
+| Hopper Disassembler              | Proprietary Cryptic Apps software under its [license agreement](https://www.hopperapp.com/license_agreement.html). Personal and computer licenses have different permitted-user and installation rules; an official evaluation trial is available. REA setup may obtain the official installer after approval, but this grants no paid license or activation entitlement.                                                                                  |

Check user/seat/server rights and whether your edition permits automation, backend/service integration, and disclosure of generated output. The published EULA restricts public or third-party disclosure of decompiled code, reconstructed artifacts, and analysis reports unless expressly permitted by the license type. |
+
+The vendor's applicable agreement controls. These summaries do not interpret
+your individual contract or expand the rights it grants. Verify permissions
+before publishing analysis output, sharing tool access, or operating a service.
+Vendor terms above were checked on 2026-10-12.
+
+## Runtimes, development tooling, and fixtures
+
+REA uses a caller-supplied Node.js runtime ([MIT and component notices](https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/main/LICENSE)).
+Optional workflows may also use Python ([PSF and component licenses](https://docs.python.org/3/license.html)),
+OpenJDK ([GPLv2 with Classpath Exception and component notices](https://openjdk.org/legal/)),
+Electron ([MIT and component notices](https://github.com/electron/electron/blob/main/LICENSE)),
+or a Chromium-based browser ([BSD-3-Clause and third-party licenses](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/LICENSE)).
+These external installations are not licensed or bundled by REA's MIT license.
+
+Development, test, and website npm packages are included in the locked inventory.
+GitHub Actions, operating-system utilities, downloaded verification fixtures,
+and their runtimes retain the terms supplied by their publishers. Fixture
+identities and provenance are recorded under `scripts/fixtures/` and the
+existing `third_party/` records; downloaded executable fixtures are not tracked
+or included in the npm package. This notice does not claim to inventory every
+dependency of a caller's operating system, agent, or separately installed tool.
+
+## Maintaining and redistributing notices
+
+Refresh the dependency inventory and runtime notice collection when the lockfile
+changes. Review the actual versions and distributed contents, retain the
+upstream license and copyright texts, and account for optional platform
+packages. See [licenses/README.md](licenses/README.md) for source provenance,
+collection scope, and known upstream notice gaps.
+
+The npm package includes this document, the `licenses/` directory, and the
+existing redistributed license records under `third_party/`. If you additionally
+bundle an external engine or modify upstream code, review that actual
+distribution and retain its full applicable licenses, copyright notices,
+NOTICE files, modification notices, and source obligations. REA's inventory is
+not a substitute for those obligations.

+# ADB device inspection and acquisition
+
+REA inspects connected Android devices, reads device state, and transfers
+files and packages through the caller's `adb` binary. Emulators, USB
+devices, and network devices participate alike: REA neither starts nor
+manages them and never installs platform tools. Every operation composes a
+fixed adb argument vector — caller values occupy positional arguments only
+and are quoted when adb forwards them to the device shell.
+
+The adb client may start its local server on first device query; that is adb
+client behavior, recorded in the tool result when observed.
+`inspect_adb_client` probes only the binary and never contacts the server.
+
+## Supply tools
+
+Use any Android platform-tools `adb` (verified with 34.0.5). Select it
+through the environment:
+
+```sh
+# Optional: absolute path to the adb binary; without it, adb resolves from PATH.
+export REA_ADB_PATH=/absolute/path/to/adb
+```
+
+REA never installs the Android SDK, an emulator, or a system image.
+Readiness is `rea inspect-adb-client`: it runs `adb version` and reports the
+resolved binary, its version, and where it was selected from. A missing
+binary reports `capability_unavailable` with the `REA_ADB_PATH` remediation
+rather than attempting an installation.

+## Interpret the result
+
+- **Directory names retain whitespace and newlines.** Symlink targets do too,
+  including trailing newlines. Records containing invalid UTF-8 remain as
+  labelled hex in `unparsed_lines` and make directory coverage partial.
+- **Inferences carry their basis.** Device `kind` reports
+  `kind_basis` (serial prefix or USB transport); APK `role` reports
+  `role_basis: file_name`; `emulator_observed` is the build's own
+  `ro.kernel.qemu` value, `null` when absent.
+- **Device paths are not host paths.** `base_apk_device_path` values live on
+  the device filesystem. Only pulls and captures produce host-local paths,
+  each paired with byte size and SHA-256 digest. A pulled file's host name is
+  the device path's final POSIX segment. REA preserves the original device
+  path and filename; a missing final segment or `.`/`..` is refused before
+  output creation. Windows hosts follow [Windows filename rules](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/naming-a-file),
+  while POSIX hosts retain valid POSIX filenames such as names with spaces or
+  colons. A package pull checks reported names against the destination
+  filesystem before pulling, and refuses names that would share a local path.
+- **Splits are part of the answer.** `pm path` enumerates the base APK and
+  every installed split; pulls cover the whole set. System packages whose
+  APKs keep other names report the `unknown` role rather than guessing.
+- **Partial results keep facts.** Failed individual pulls return successful
+  artifacts with `coverage: "partial"` and per-file `failures`. Listings
+  that contain unrecognized lines report them as `unparsed_lines` and mark
+  partial coverage instead of dropping rows.
+- **Mutations are explicit.** `push_adb_file`, `install_adb_package`, and
+  `uninstall_adb_package` declare `mutatesTarget` and never run implicitly:
+  pushes refuse existing device files unless `overwrite` is set and verify
+  the transfer with the device's own `sha256sum`; installs preserve the
+  device's `Failure [...]` reason verbatim.
+- **Producer identity stays attached.** Every result embeds the producing
+  adb client (`binary_path`, `path_source`, `version`, `installed_path`).
+
+## Resource and lifecycle limits
+
+- Caller values reach adb only as positional arguments in fixed vectors;
+  no tool accepts an arbitrary shell command line, `input`, or `monkey`.
+  The app/activity lifecycle tools use `am start -W` and `am force-stop`.
+- Per-invocation budgets: client/devices 10-20 s, shell reads 20-60 s with
+  64 KiB-8 MiB capture caps (logcat 4 MiB, screen 32 MiB), transfers and
+  bugreports 600 s. Exceeded budgets report `resource_constraint`; stopped
+  commands report `provider_timeout`.
+- Pull and capture outputs are additive: the destination must not already
+  exist. Re-running a completed pull refuses the existing directory instead
+  of overwriting evidence.
+- Cancellation during a package pull preserves caller-selected output. The
+  error includes partial observations identifying completed artifacts and the
+  interrupted local path; remaining APKs were not attempted.
+- Bugreports collect into isolated staging and publish with exclusive creation;
+  filename collisions select the next numeric suffix. If publication fails, the
+  completed archive remains in staging. The error's partial observation gives
+  its recoverable `local_path`, the original `adb_reported_path`, and an unknown
+  digest status. Later operations and shutdown preserve this retained evidence.
+- Failed package acquisition rollback retains its directory identity and retries
+  cleanup before later work and during shutdown. Cleanup refuses a replacement
+  directory. Terminal shutdown stops admission and drains active operations.
+- The provider holds no long-lived processes; every invocation is one
+  bounded adb run. The adb server belongs to the caller.
+
+## Related capability and follow-up lanes
+
+UI interaction beyond intent starts (tapping, typing, monkey fuzzing, screen
+recording) remains a separate lane: candidates such as
+[mobile-device-mcp](https://github.com/srmorete/mobile-device-mcp) install
+driver software on the device and pair with the Frida instrumentation lane
+(#1359) behind explicit mutation-authority contracts. Network transports
+beyond already-connected devices (`adb connect`) are not exposed yet.
+
+## Real verification
+
+`npm run verify:adb` exercises every operation against a live device. It
+requires `adb` (or `REA_ADB_PATH`) and any attached emulator or phone;
+`--serial` selects one when several are attached, `--pull PACKAGE` pulls a
+real package and verifies the returned digests against the files on disk,
+and `--install-apk PATH` drives a full install → resolve → uninstall
+lifecycle with a lane-owned probe.
+
+Record: verified against adb 34.0.5 on Linux against an Android 14
+(API 34) x86_64 emulator — all operations above, a 224-package inventory,
+287 services, 92 features, a real two-APK split set pulled with byte-exact
+digests, a verified push/pull roundtrip, a 1.3 MB screen capture, and the
+complete package lifecycle; see `docs/testing.md` for the lane summary.

-# ADR-0001: Provider selection and analysis profiles
-
- Status: Accepted
- Date: 2026-07-15
- Implementation status: The provider registry, deterministic selection,
-  target binding, analysis-profile commitment, and snapshot/Evidence migration
-  are implemented. Ghidra discovery, target/profile resolution, doctor checks,
-  the private headless-session foundation, thirteen read-only inventory/load-image
-  capabilities, and twelve function-analysis capabilities are implemented with
-  real cross-format conformance. Linux/macOS also supports atomic session
-  function annotations; experimental Windows x64 P0 uses bundled native controls
-  and admits only the 25 read-only operations. See the
-  [release boundary](../installation.md#released-package-and-main).
-
-## Context
-
-Before this decision, REA composed the artifact, native macOS, and Hopper
-providers with `CompositeProvider`. That class intentionally requires every
-operation to have one route. Hopper and Ghidra will both implement the deep
-static-analysis operation family, so putting both into that composite would
-either fail at construction or make array order an undeclared selection policy.
-
-The active `BinarySession` also owned one composite client. `open_binary` had no
-provider selector, and the domain `BinaryTarget` contained Hopper loader
-arguments. Analysis snapshot v1 committed those loader arguments and each
-cached entry's provider identity, but it did not commit the selected analysis
-engine, engine version, or complete analysis configuration. Two analyses of the
-same bytes could therefore disagree because of language, compiler, loader,
-analyzer, or provider-version differences while appearing target-compatible.
-
-The decision addressed the earlier representations of
-[`CompositeProvider`](../../src/application/CompositeProvider.ts),
-[runtime composition](../../src/application/runtime.ts),
-[`BinarySession`](../../src/application/BinarySession.ts),
-[`BinaryTarget`](../../src/domain/binaryTarget.ts),
-[analysis snapshot](../../src/domain/analysisSnapshot.ts), and
-[session lifecycle inputs](../../src/contracts/sessionLifecycleInputs.ts).
-
-The next deep provider must not weaken the existing product invariants:
-
- stable provider-neutral CLI and MCP tool names;
- exact provenance and explicit unavailable or degraded capabilities;
- CLI and MCP parity;
- no silent provider fallback;
- provider-specific code outside the domain and application models;
- local, actionable diagnostics with only genuine secrets redacted; and
- snapshot reuse only when semantic analysis inputs are identical.
-
-## Decision drivers
-
-1. Hopper and Ghidra need to declare overlapping operations without ambiguous
-   dispatch.
-2. A target must have one explainable deep-analysis producer for its lifetime.
-3. Target-free discovery must remain useful and must not start an analysis
-   process.
-4. Existing Hopper-only configurations must keep working when no selector is
-   supplied.
-5. Adding a second installed provider must not silently change results.
-6. Snapshot and Evidence compatibility must include every setting that can
-   materially change analysis.
-7. Provider-specific open settings must not leak into `BinaryTarget` or become
-   generic application fields.
-
-## Terminology
-
- **Deep provider**: an engine such as Hopper or Ghidra that implements the
-  overlapping static-analysis operation family.
- **Auxiliary provider**: a provider with a disjoint operation family, such as
-  artifact inventory or native macOS inspection.
- **Candidate**: a registered deep provider before target selection.
- **Binding**: the selected deep provider and analysis profile attached to one
-  active target.
- **Analysis profile**: a canonical commitment to the selected provider,
-  provider version, and normalized semantic analysis settings.
- **Available**: the adapter and its required local runtime can be used on this
-  host.
- **Supported**: the candidate accepts the parsed target and supplied open
-  options. Availability and target support are separate observations.
-
-## Decision
-
-### 1. Separate disjoint composition from overlapping selection
-
-`CompositeProvider` remains the mechanism for operation families whose routes
-are disjoint. It must continue rejecting duplicate operation declarations. It
-must not acquire priority, racing, fallback, or provider-selection behavior.
-
-A new `AnalysisProviderRegistry` owns the configured deep-provider candidates.
-Provider IDs are unique; duplicate IDs are a configuration error. The registry
-may hold multiple candidates that declare the same operation. It performs
-candidate discovery, target-support evaluation, option parsing, profile
-resolution, and selection, but it does not choose a different provider for each
-request.
-
-After selection, the session composes exactly one bound deep provider with the
-auxiliary disjoint families:
-
-```text
-                         target-free discovery
-                                  |
-                     AnalysisProviderRegistry

-                   Hopper                 Ghidra

-                        one selected binding
-                                  |
-        +-------------------------+-------------------------+
-        |                         |                         |
-  selected deep family     artifact family          native family
-        +-------------------------+-------------------------+

-                            BinarySession
-```
-
-An auxiliary operation continues to report its actual auxiliary provider as
-provenance. A deep operation always reports the provider in the active binding.
-The synthetic composite identity is never evidence that two engines jointly
-produced one observation.
-
-Operation ownership is fixed by family:
-
-| Operation family                                             | Executor                                                                                              |
-| ------------------------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Deep direct operations and provider-native function analysis | The one bound Hopper or Ghidra provider                                                               |
-| Application-enhanced deep workflows                          | Application composition over the bound provider's declared operations                                 |
-| Native macOS inspection                                      | The disjoint native provider                                                                          |
-| Artifact inventory and extraction                            | The disjoint artifact provider                                                                        |
-| Browser and Electron observation                             | Their independently authorized CDP providers; they do not participate in deep-provider selection      |
-| Session lifecycle, Evidence, comparisons, and reconstruction | The application/session layer using the exact provider provenance recorded by their source operations |
-
-Selecting a deep provider selects the whole deep family. If that provider marks
-an operation unavailable, REA returns the unavailability; it does not borrow
-that one operation from another deep provider. Application-enhanced workflows
-run only when the bound provider supplies their declared dependencies.
-
-### 2. Discover candidates without launching analysis
-
-Each registered candidate exposes three bounded adapter-owned observations:
-
-1. identity and declared capability descriptors;
-2. host availability, including an actionable rejection when unavailable; and
-3. target support plus normalized profile resolution when a target is known.
-
-Target-free discovery may inspect configuration, manifests, executable
-metadata, and documented version files. It must not import a target, create a
-project, open a GUI, or start the long-lived analysis process. Any short-lived
-version probe added later must be explicitly bounded and truthfully declared as
-a process effect.
-
-Candidate output is sorted by provider ID for determinism. Sort order is not
-selection priority. Availability and support use stable codes plus a human
-diagnostic:
-
-| Code                         | Meaning                                                         |
-| ---------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `not_configured`             | Required provider location or configuration is absent           |
-| `executable_missing`         | The configured provider entry point is missing or not runnable  |
-| `runtime_missing`            | A required provider runtime, such as Java, is unavailable       |
-| `unsupported_host`           | The host platform or architecture is unsupported                |
-| `unsupported_version`        | The discovered provider or runtime version is unsupported       |
-| `target_kind_unsupported`    | The provider does not accept this target kind                   |
-| `target_format_unsupported`  | The provider does not accept this target format                 |
-| `architecture_unsupported`   | The selected target architecture is unsupported                 |
-| `target_role_unsupported`    | The provider rejects this executable image role                 |
-| `managed_target_unsupported` | The provider does not admit managed code through this deep path |
-| `open_options_invalid`       | The selected adapter rejected its open options                  |
-| `version_unresolved`         | A concrete analysis-engine version could not be committed       |
-
-Diagnostics retain useful local paths, observed versions, architectures, and
-mismatch details. Credentials, authorization headers, license secrets, and
-other genuine secrets remain redacted.
-
-### 3. Use one deterministic selection algorithm
-
-The caller-visible selectors are:
-
- MCP `open_binary.provider_id`;
- `rea ... --provider <provider-id|auto>` on every one-shot command that needs
-  deep analysis; and
- `REA_ANALYSIS_PROVIDER=<provider-id|auto>`, defaulting to `auto`.
-
-The literal value `auto` is reserved and cannot be a provider ID. Precedence is
-request or CLI flag, then environment configuration, then the default `auto`.
-An explicit request for `auto` overrides a concrete environment preference and
-re-enters automatic selection.
-
-Selection occurs after provider-neutral target parsing and before a deep client
-is created:
-
-1. A concrete requested provider ID must exist, be available, support the
-   target, accept its options, and resolve a concrete version and profile. Any
-   failure returns a typed selection error; another provider is never tried.
-2. `auto` filters candidates by availability and target support.
-3. Exactly one usable candidate is selected with source
-   `auto-single-candidate`.
-4. More than one usable candidate is an `ambiguous` selection error. The
-   diagnostic lists the candidates and asks for `provider_id`, `--provider`, or
-   `REA_ANALYSIS_PROVIDER`. REA does not prefer Hopper, Ghidra, registration
-   order, the fastest startup, or the first health response.
-5. When no deep candidate is usable, an automatic open may still establish an
-   unbound target so disjoint artifact or native operations remain available.
-   Deep operations are then explicitly unavailable with the candidate
-   rejections. A concrete request, or a concrete environment preference for a
-   deep-eligible target, remains a hard requirement and fails instead of
-   becoming unbound.
-6. A target that no deep adapter declares support for, such as an artifact-only
-   target, is `not_applicable` rather than a failed deep analysis. Supplying a
-   concrete provider in that open request is still an actionable unsupported-
-   target error. A global environment preference does not make an artifact-only
-   target require a deep provider.
-
-This preserves target opening for non-Hopper capabilities on hosts without a
-deep engine while ensuring that installing a second usable deep engine never
-changes analysis silently.
-
-### 4. Bind once and never fail over mid-session
-
-An active deep binding contains:
-
-```text
-canonical target identity
-selected provider identity and concrete version
-selection source: request | environment | auto-single-candidate
-analysis profile commitment
-owned provider client, once started
-```
-
-The binding is immutable until `close_binary` or an explicit open/switch
-transaction. Provider client creation may remain lazy, but laziness cannot
-change which provider was selected.
-
- Opening the same canonical target without a new selector keeps the existing
-  binding.
- Opening the same target with the same provider and profile is idempotent.
- A different explicit provider or a profile-changing option is a real switch:
-  drain active calls, close owned resources, resolve the new binding, and start
-  it as one serialized transaction.
- If a switch fails, restore the prior target and binding on a best-effort
-  transactional path and return the original switch error.
- Provider process exit, timeout, cancellation, capability failure, or adapter
-  error never triggers fallback. The binding stays visible and unavailable
-  until the caller explicitly switches or closes it.
- A snapshot never chooses or changes the provider. Selection happens first;
-  snapshot compatibility is checked against the resulting binding.
-
-Calls already admitted to one binding complete or cancel against that binding.
-No request can cross a concurrent target or provider transition.
-
-### 5. Keep provider open options adapter-owned
-
-`BinaryTarget` retains only provider-neutral source identity and classification:
-canonical path, source digest, generic kind and format, selected architecture,
-and available architectures. Hopper loader arguments leave the domain model.
-Provider-owned databases use a generic analysis-database classification; their
-adapter determines support. A legacy `.hop` target is therefore accepted only
-by Hopper without teaching the domain how to open it. Ghidra v1 continues to use
-private temporary projects and does not open user projects.
-
-The generic transport may carry one bounded JSON `provider_options` object.
-Only the selected adapter parses its keys and reports `open_options_invalid` at
-that boundary. If this object is exposed over MCP, the CLI parity surface is
-`--provider-options-json` with the same JSON schema and limits. Unknown keys,
-wrong-provider options, excessive depth or size, and non-JSON values fail
-closed.
-
-Environment settings that are inherently adapter-specific, such as the Hopper
-launcher or future Ghidra installation path, remain in adapter configuration.
-They do not become `BinaryTarget` fields. The application layer transports an
-opaque, already-bounded JSON value and the generic commitment described below;
-it does not interpret Hopper or Ghidra option names.
-
-### 6. Commit a canonical analysis profile
-
-Before creating a deep client, the selected adapter normalizes every semantic
-input that can affect analysis. Examples include Hopper loader selection and
-architecture flags, or Ghidra language ID, compiler specification, import mode,
-analyzer set, and analyzer options. Defaults are made explicit, unordered sets
-are sorted, and implicit host-dependent choices are resolved.
-
-The adapter returns this provider-neutral envelope:
-
-```json
-{
-  "provider": { "id": "ghidra", "version": "<concrete version>" },
-  "parameters": {},
-  "digest": "<sha256 of RFC 8785 canonical JSON excluding digest>"
-}
-```
-
-`parameters` is bounded JSON interpreted only by that provider adapter. It
-contains analysis semantics, not credentials, authorization data, temporary
-paths, installation paths, process IDs, timestamps, or other incidental host
-state. The generic domain validates the envelope and digest but treats the
-parameters as opaque data.
-
-A selected deep binding requires a concrete provider version. If the adapter
-cannot determine it, the candidate is unavailable with `version_unresolved`;
-REA does not persist a cache that merely commits `null` or "whatever is
-installed". Provider identity, normalized parameters, or provider version
-changes produce a different digest.
-
-The same target, configuration, and provider must resolve the same profile over
-CLI and MCP. Profile resolution must be side-effect-free and complete before
-the provider imports the target.
-
-### 7. Make snapshots provider- and profile-exact
-
-Analysis snapshots replace Hopper loader arguments with an explicit binding
-commitment:
-
-```text
-target: digest + generic format/kind + selected architecture
-binding: provider identity + analysis profile commitment
-entries: exact immutable queries
-evidence_bundle: retained Evidence records
-```
-
-The snapshot target identity, canonical snapshot content digest, and every
-query ID commit the provider ID, concrete provider version, and profile digest.
-A cached entry is reusable only when all of the following match exactly:
-
- target digest, generic format and kind, and selected architecture;
- provider ID and provider version;
- profile digest;
- operation and canonical parameters; and
- the existing cacheability and immutability rules.
-
-Provider or profile switches select a separate cache partition and cannot reuse
-entries from the previous binding. Auxiliary operations are cacheable only if
-their provider defines an equivalent explicit profile commitment; otherwise
-they remain Evidence but not snapshot entries.
-
-Snapshot v1 cannot be parsed as the current snapshot format. Its `loader_args`
-cannot prove which engine version, defaults, or analyzer settings produced the
-entries, so snapshots must be recaptured before they can be used as a cache.
-An embedded Evidence bundle can still be imported separately through the
-Evidence import flow; it is never promoted into an analysis cache.
-
-### 8. Add profile commitments to new deep Evidence while preserving legacy records
-
-The optional `analysis_profile` field uses the canonical envelope above. Every
-newly created deep-analysis observation must include it, and its provider ID
-and version must match the record's provider. The field participates in the
-Evidence semantic ID.
-
-Existing Evidence records without `analysis_profile` remain valid and keep
-their existing IDs. Absence on a legacy deep record means the analysis profile
-is unknown; REA does not infer or enrich it during import. Such evidence can be
-displayed and cited but cannot establish profile compatibility, seed snapshot
-replay, or support an "unchanged" conclusion that depends on identical analysis
-semantics.
-
-Different providers or profile digests are never snapshot-compatible. A
-derived comparison may compare cross-provider normalized facts only when its
-own contract explicitly defines that semantic comparison. Exact pseudocode,
-provider text, or provider-specific metadata is not treated as equivalent. A
-missing or incompatible profile yields unknown or incompatible, never equal.
-
-### 9. Expose selection truth in status and diagnostics
-
-`binary_session`, `rea providers`, and `rea capabilities` expose the same
-candidate and binding model. The target-free form does not start providers and
-uses `unknown` for target support:
-
-```json
-{
-  "analysis_provider_binding": null,
-  "analysis_provider_candidates": [
-    {
-      "provider": {
-        "id": "hopper",
-        "name": "Hopper Disassembler",
-        "version": "<detected version>"
-      },
-      "availability": {
-        "status": "available",
-        "code": null,
-        "reason": null,
-        "diagnostics": {}
-      },
-      "target_support": {
-        "status": "unknown",
-        "code": null,
-        "reason": "No target is open."
-      },
-      "selected": false,
-      "capabilities": []
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-With a binding, `analysis_provider_binding` includes the selected identity,
-selection source, and complete profile commitment. Every candidate reports
-`supported`, `unsupported`, or `unknown` target support and whether it was
-selected. Candidate capability descriptors preserve supported, unsupported,
-and degraded truth independently.
-
-An open target also exposes `analysis_run`. Its run ID is allocated by the
-session before client construction and propagated into selected Hopper or
-Ghidra bridge handshake and process environment. Dynamic clients retain
-provider-attributed lineage snapshots only after revalidating launcher
-parent/command and every observed launcher or descendant run token. `not_observed`
-means no dynamic provider has supplied a snapshot. Once one or more start,
-`snapshots` preserves every provider observation; each remains explicitly
-`unavailable` or `verified` and records its `observed_at` time. Retained
-snapshots are not live inventories, and a point-in-time observation never proves
-historical absence.
-
-The existing flat `provider`, `providers`, and `capabilities` status fields stay
-during the 1.x compatibility window. Their effective deep-operation entries
-come only from the active binding; target-free ambiguity is unavailable rather
-than arbitrarily collapsed. The new candidate fields are authoritative for
-selection. A future major release may remove the synthetic composite provider
-field after callers have migrated.
-
-Selection failures extend the tagged `ProviderSelectionError` with a stable
-reason:
-
- `unknown_provider`;
- `provider_unavailable`;
- `target_unsupported`;
- `ambiguous`;
- `invalid_options`.
-
-The error includes the requested ID or `auto`, candidate IDs, rejection codes,
-and actionable local diagnostics. `AnalysisCapabilityUnavailableError` remains
-the error for an operation the selected provider cannot supply.
-`ProviderAdapterError` and more specific provider errors remain failures of the
-already selected provider. None authorizes fallback.
-
-A snapshot whose provider or profile differs from the selected binding returns
-`EvidenceIntegrityError` with stable `profile_mismatch` details. It is an
-integrity incompatibility after selection, not permission to select the
-snapshot's provider.
-
-### 10. Preserve CLI and MCP parity
-
- `open_binary.provider_id` and one-shot `--provider` use the same parser and
-  selection service.
- `provider_id: "auto"`, `--provider auto`, and
-  `REA_ANALYSIS_PROVIDER=auto` have identical auto semantics.
- Startup targets opened from environment configuration use the same service.
- `rea providers`, `rea capabilities`, and target-free `binary_session` use the
-  same candidate snapshot and reason codes.
- Guided prompt `provider_id` context is a preference to forward into the open
-  operation; it does not create a hidden routing channel.
- Tool names and normalized output contracts remain provider-neutral. REA does
-  not add `ghidra_decompile` or `hopper_decompile` tools.
-

-| Existing Hopper environment settings                 | Remain supported as Hopper adapter configuration                                                               |

-| `BinaryTarget.loaderArgs`                            | Removed; Hopper derives them inside its adapter and commits normalized semantics in the profile                |

-| Existing status fields                               | Retained for 1.x with additive binding and candidate fields                                                    |

-
-The deprecated `loaderArgs` response must never be read to select a provider or
-validate a snapshot. It is empty for non-Hopper bindings and may be removed only
-with a separately documented major contract change.

-| ---------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Hopper is the only usable candidate, selector omitted      | Hopper is bound by `auto-single-candidate`                                  |
-| Ghidra is the only usable candidate, selector omitted      | Ghidra is bound by `auto-single-candidate`                                  |
-| Both are usable, selector omitted                          | Typed `ambiguous` error; neither provider starts                            |
-| Environment selects Ghidra, request omits a selector       | Ghidra is required and bound or the open fails with its rejection           |
-| Environment selects Ghidra, request selects Hopper         | Request wins; Hopper is required                                            |
-| Environment selects Ghidra, request selects `auto`         | Auto policy runs and is ambiguous when both are usable                      |
-| Unknown concrete provider ID                               | Typed `unknown_provider`; no target transition                              |
-| Selected provider rejects the target or options            | Typed rejection from that candidate only                                    |
-| Selected provider times out after binding                  | Binding remains selected and unavailable; no fallback                       |
-| Same target is reopened without a selector                 | Existing binding remains unchanged                                          |
-| Same bytes are opened with a different profile             | Real provider switch and a separate snapshot partition                      |
-| Snapshot provider or profile differs from the binding      | Typed `EvidenceIntegrityError` with `profile_mismatch`; nothing is imported |
-| Artifact-only target has no deep candidate                 | Target opens unbound; disjoint artifact capabilities remain usable          |
-| Environment prefers Ghidra for an artifact-only target     | Deep selection is `not_applicable`; auxiliary operations remain usable      |
-| Concrete deep provider is requested for artifact-only data | Typed `target_unsupported`; the request is not silently ignored             |
-
-## Consequences
-
-Positive consequences:
-
- Hopper and Ghidra can coexist without ambiguous operation routes.
- Provider choice is reproducible, visible, and stable for a target.
- Installation of another provider cannot silently change analysis.
- Snapshot and Evidence identities become analysis-configuration aware.
- Provider adapters retain ownership of their option schemas and diagnostics.
- Auxiliary capabilities remain usable when no deep engine is installed.
-
-Costs and tradeoffs:
-
- Multi-provider hosts must choose when more than one candidate is usable.
- Snapshots must be recaptured when their provider or profile binding changes.
- Providers must expose deterministic availability, support, version, and
-  profile resolution before they can be admitted.
- Status and error contracts gain additive structured metadata.
- Hopper needs an adapter-owned version/profile implementation before profile-
-  exact snapshot persistence is complete.
-
-## Rejected alternatives
-
-### Let `CompositeProvider` choose the first duplicate route
-
-Array order is not a product policy, becomes fragile during wiring changes, and
-hides ambiguity from callers.
-
-### Race providers and keep the first healthy response
-
-Machine load would determine provenance and results. It also starts resources
-the operator did not select and makes cancellation and cleanup harder.
-
-### Fall back after a provider error
-
-Mid-session fallback can combine incompatible engine state and evidence under
-one apparent target. Explicit close or switch is required instead.
-
-### Add provider-prefixed tools
-
-Parallel Hopper and Ghidra tool families would leak adapters into the product
-contract and prevent shared workflows from using capability metadata.
-
-### Store raw provider options in `BinaryTarget`
-
-That repeats the current Hopper coupling and makes every generic consumer learn
-provider schemas. Only canonical profile commitments cross the adapter boundary.
-
-### Treat matching target bytes and provider ID as sufficient for snapshots
-
-Provider versions, analyzer defaults, loaders, languages, and compiler models
-can change results without changing either value.
-
-### Silently upgrade snapshot v1
-
-The missing engine version and analysis settings cannot be reconstructed from
-Hopper loader arguments. A fabricated profile would turn unknown provenance
-into false certainty.
-
-## Implementation progress
-
-The first six implementation stages are shipped:
-
-1. Provider-specific target state was replaced by generic profile and snapshot
-   v2 commitments while preserving Hopper execution behavior.
-2. The registry, selectors, candidate status, binding lifecycle, and
-   overlapping-provider production seams were added.
-3. Proven process-lifecycle primitives were extracted for shared use.
-4. Ghidra availability, target/profile resolution, doctor checks, and a private
-   read-only headless session were admitted without declaring operations.
-5. Program identity, procedures, strings, symbols, memory blocks,
-   address/name resolution, containing-procedure resolution, and search
-   were admitted with exact wire schemas and real debug/stripped ELF
-   conformance.
-6. Function metadata, persistent decompilation, assembly, resolved
-   callers/callees, typed references, xrefs, CFG, and complete function dossiers
-   were admitted. A serial per-Program queue keeps API access ordered without a
-   fixed queue length or per-operation deadline. Real conformance covers
-   x86-64 and AArch64 ELF, PE, Mach-O, stripped symbols, targetless indirect
-   calls, cancellation, and cleanup.
-
-Future stages may deepen format and indirect-flow coverage, but must continue
-to compare normalized semantics rather than provider-specific pseudocode or
-assembly text. Linux and macOS now admit atomic function-name and entry-comment
-edits in the ephemeral database, with readback, rollback, and cache invalidation.
-Executable bytes remain unchanged. Windows P0 retains its read-only boundary;
-GUI and other unimplemented mutations remain unavailable.

-# ADR-0002: Controlled JavaScript replay authority and sandbox policy
-
- Status: Superseded; the controlled JavaScript replay tool was removed
- Date: 2026-07-16
- Implementation status: The implementation was removed. The design below is
-  retained as historical context and does not describe a supported REA tool.
-
-> Historical design note: The tool, sandbox backend, and plan/execute workflow
-> described here are no longer part of REA. For runtime behavior, run probes
-> directly against the application and use the available browser, Electron, or
-> process capture workflows.
-
-## Context
-
-REA can reconstruct JavaScript and Electron artifacts, observe an existing
-browser or Electron page through passive CDP, capture an explicitly approved
-process scenario, and correlate those observations without executing bundle
-code in the REA server. The next research workflow needs to execute selected,
-extracted JavaScript modules with controlled inputs and deterministic stubs so
-that parsers, sanitizers, serializers, and similar pure logic can be compared
-across versions.
-
-That workflow crosses a qualitatively different boundary. Source recovered
-from an application is untrusted code. It can intentionally or accidentally
-read files, contact services, spawn processes, exhaust resources, corrupt the
-analysis process, forge protocol output, or interact with another same-user
-process. A JavaScript realm or Node.js `vm` context is useful for constructing
-an API surface, but it is not a security boundary. Node.js also documents its
-permission model as protection against accidental access by trusted code, not
-as containment for malicious code.
-
-Existing authorities cannot be widened to cover this behavior:
-
- `browser_observe` and `electron_observe` authorize passive attachment to an
-  already-running, operator-owned target. They do not authorize evaluation,
-  navigation, input, or target lifecycle changes.
- `process_capture` authorizes one declared host process scenario and explicitly
-  states that it is not a sandbox. It cannot silently become permission to run
-  recovered code.
- static artifact reads authorize inspection of bytes, not execution of those
-  bytes.
- the Evidence authority `controlled-replay` already describes observations
-  from an approved process experiment. Reusing that epistemic authority is
-  correct, but reusing the process permission capability is not.
-
-The implementation following this ADR must fail closed on hosts where REA
-cannot establish the promised operating-system boundary. It must not copy the
-research `vm.runInContext` scripts into the production server and call that
-isolation.
-
-## Decision drivers
-
-1. Passive observation must never imply authority to execute application code.
-2. The exact code, inputs, stubs, runtime, sandbox policy, and limits approved
-   by the operator must be the ones executed.
-3. Recovered code must not run in the MCP server, CLI adapter, or any provider
-   process.
-4. A sandbox failure must make the capability unavailable, not select a weaker
-   execution mode.
-5. The default policy must provide no host network and no writable host path.
-6. Time, memory, process count, temporary storage, protocol, and output must be
-   bounded independently.
-7. Results must distinguish an observed return, an observed exception or
-   termination, a derived comparison, and an unresolved application-level
-   claim.
-8. A reproducer must commit enough provenance to detect every relevant change
-   without committing proprietary application source to the repository.
-9. CLI and MCP must expose the same plan, approval, execution, cancellation,
-   failure, and Evidence semantics.
-
-## Terminology
-
- **Passive observation**: bounded reads from an existing browser or Electron
-  target without evaluating code, driving input, navigating, or controlling
-  its lifecycle.
- **Controlled replay**: execution of operator-selected code in a declared,
-  isolated environment with committed inputs and limits. This is an Evidence
-  authority, not a claim that the real application behaved identically.
- **Extracted-module replay**: the only admitted JavaScript replay mode in v1.
-  REA evaluates a finite manifest of module bytes and explicit stubs without
-  launching the application.
- **Application interaction**: launching or driving the original application,
-  browser, renderer, or Electron main process. This is not extracted-module
-  replay and is not authorized by this ADR.
- **Replay plan**: the canonical, content-addressed description of one proposed
-  run before execution.
- **Replay worker**: the disposable Node.js process inside the OS sandbox. It
-  is never the REA server process.
- **Sandbox backend**: the OS mechanisms and adapter that establish namespaces,
-  resource controls, filesystem visibility, and owned cleanup.
-
-## Threat model
-
-### Protected assets
-
-The boundary protects:
-
- the REA MCP/CLI process, its memory, credentials, sockets, and Evidence
-  ledger;
- user files outside the approved source reads and all host files from writes;
- other same-user processes and their control interfaces;
- host network interfaces, loopback services, Unix sockets, and external
-  services;
- process, memory, CPU, temporary-storage, output, and protocol capacity;
- the integrity of the replay plan, result, Evidence provenance, and exported
-  reproducer; and
- proprietary module bytes, which remain local and are never repository
-  fixtures.
-
-### Adversaries and failure sources
-
-REA treats all of the following as untrusted:
-
- recovered module source, including transitive modules and source maps;
- caller-provided JavaScript stubs;
- structured test inputs and generated fuzz cases;
- returned values, exceptions, console data, and worker protocol messages;
- source paths, symbolic links, and files that can change between planning and
-  execution; and
- a worker that crashes, hangs, forks, allocates aggressively, or exits while
-  descendants remain alive.
-
-An operator-controlled sandbox executable, kernel, Node.js runtime, and REA
-installation are trusted computing base. A hostile host administrator, kernel
-or sandbox vulnerability, hardware side channel, and denial of service by an
-already-compromised same-user process are out of scope. These exclusions do not
-permit REA to omit the per-run resource controls in this decision.
-
-### Required mitigations
-
-The implementation must address:
-
-| Threat                           | Required control                                                                                                |
-| -------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Server-process compromise        | Separate worker process inside the OS sandbox; no in-process fallback                                           |
-| Host file reads                  | Empty sandbox root; only a minimal read-only runtime closure; module bytes enter over a private bounded channel |
-| Host file writes                 | No writable bind mounts; size-limited private tmpfs only                                                        |
-| Network access                   | Separate network namespace with no host or external connectivity; no allowlist mode in v1                       |
-| Host process control             | PID/user/IPC/UTS isolation, no inherited control sockets, new session, dropped capabilities                     |
-| Kernel escape/inspection surface | Architecture-checked seccomp denial policy in addition to namespaces, capabilities, and cgroups                 |
-| Fork, memory, or CPU exhaustion  | Per-run cgroup v2 task, memory, swap, and CPU limits plus an outer wall-clock deadline                          |
-| Output/protocol exhaustion       | Independent byte/message/depth limits enforced by the parent before parsing or retaining output                 |
-| Symlink and file-change races    | Canonical authorization, descriptor-backed reads, digesting, staging, and exact plan revalidation               |
-| Undeclared dependencies          | Closed module manifest; exact imports only; missing/dynamic imports fail rather than use host resolution        |
-| Nondeterministic globals         | Versioned clock, PRNG, locale, timezone, platform, and API stubs; undeclared globals are unavailable            |
-| Orphan descendants               | Owned PID namespace and cgroup kill followed by an observable empty-cgroup cleanup check                        |
-| Forged result claims             | Framed worker protocol, strict schemas, parent-computed commitments, and bounded stderr kept separate           |
-| Secret leakage                   | Empty environment, no credential inheritance, bounded local results, and existing genuine-secret redaction      |
-
-## Decision
-
-### 1. Add a distinct `javascript_replay` permission capability
-
-JavaScript replay receives a new permission capability named
-`javascript_replay`. It does not inherit, imply, or satisfy
-`process_capture`, `browser_observe`, `electron_observe`, artifact-read, or
-workspace permissions. Grants for any of those capabilities do not satisfy a
-JavaScript replay request, and a JavaScript replay grant does not authorize
-them.
-
-The administrator ceiling is disabled by default. Its eventual configuration
-must commit:
-
- canonical roots from which module and optional stub files may be read;
- the exact Node.js and sandbox-backend executables;
- filesystem mount authority needed only to construct the private sandbox;
- network mode `none`; and
- no inherited environment names.
-
-Configuration establishes only the maximum authority. Every execution also
-requires an active permission grant and literal per-call approval bound to the
-exact replay plan. Project, session, and administrator grants may satisfy the
-permission-policy layer, but none replace that per-run approval.
-
-Reproducer export is a separate host write after the sandbox has stopped. This
-ADR's root-scoped `evidence_write` authority was removed; current exports use
-the path supplied by the caller, while replay still waits for complete sandbox
-cleanup before writing.
-
-### 2. Admit extracted modules only
-
-The v1 mode executes a finite, closed manifest of JavaScript modules. The
-manifest identifies one entry module and every admitted dependency by a stable
-sandbox alias and SHA-256 digest. Imports resolve only to another manifest
-entry or to an explicitly declared, versioned stub. Bare package lookup,
-ambient `node_modules`, import maps from the host, network imports, native
-addons, WASI, FFI, child processes, workers, inspector activation, and implicit
-dynamic import are unavailable.
-
-Modules and stubs are read and hashed by the authorized parent, then copied as
-bytes through a bounded private channel. Original host paths are not mounted
-into the sandbox. The worker cannot reopen the operator's source path.
-
-Source maps may supply locations, but source-map source code is not executed
-unless its bytes are separately present in the approved manifest. A source-map
-name or Webpack module ordinal is never execution authority.
-
-REA does not launch, attach to, navigate, click, type into, or terminate the
-user's application under this capability. A full application process remains
-an independently approved Process Capture experiment; browser and Electron
-targets remain passive. Any future mode that drives an application or permits
-host/allowlisted network requires a new ADR and a distinct permission scope.
-
-### 3. Use a two-phase, content-bound approval flow
-
-One public replay surface supports a plan phase and an execute phase with the
-same schema through CLI and MCP.
-
-The plan phase:
-
-1. validates all caller input and hard limits before file access;
-2. obtains authority to read every selected module or stub path;
-3. canonicalizes and opens each file without following an unapproved identity;
-4. reads bounded bytes, computes digests, and closes the source descriptors;
-5. resolves and probes the exact runtime and sandbox backend without running
-   application code;
-6. normalizes stubs, inputs, generator settings, and limits; and
-7. returns the complete proposed effects and a canonical `plan_digest`.
-
-The plan must disclose at least:
-
- module aliases, canonical local paths, byte counts, and SHA-256 digests;
- input and stub identities, provenance, and digests;
- runtime and sandbox executable paths, versions, and executable digests;
- sandbox policy version and digest;
- network `none`, visible read-only runtime paths, and private writable tmpfs
-  size;
- time, CPU, memory, swap, task, temporary-storage, input, output, protocol,
-  case-count, and serialization limits;
- deterministic clock, PRNG seed/algorithm, locale, timezone, and platform
-  projection; and
- expected Evidence and cleanup behavior.
-
-Execution requires the exact `plan_digest`. REA
-rebuilds the plan immediately before admission. Any changed file, runtime,
-sandbox executable, policy, stub, input, limit, or environment commitment
-returns `plan_stale` before application code starts. Approval is not transferable
-to a different plan and cannot be represented by a bare Boolean alone.
-
-Interactive CLI may print the plan and ask for confirmation. Non-interactive
-CLI and MCP must perform the same explicit plan/execute exchange; they may not
-auto-approve because the caller requested JSON output or because permission
-elicitation is supported.
-
-### 4. Require an OS sandbox; fail closed elsewhere
-
-The first production backend is Linux-only. It must combine:
-
- an empty mount namespace rooted in private tmpfs;
- a new user namespace with all capabilities dropped and further nested user
-  namespaces disabled;
- new PID, network, IPC, UTS, and cgroup namespaces;
- a new terminal session and parent-death behavior;
- no host D-Bus, agent, browser, Docker, Wayland/X11, SSH, GPG, audio, device,
-  or application sockets;
- a minimal, read-only runtime closure rather than `/`, the user's home,
-  working directory, or host `/tmp`;
- a fresh `/proc` for the sandbox PID namespace and a minimal private `/dev`;
- a parent-generated, architecture-checked seccomp policy that denies at least
-  namespace or mount changes, `ptrace` and cross-process memory inspection,
-  BPF/perf access, kernel keyring and module control, reboot/swap controls, and
-  the `TIOCSTI` terminal injection path;
- cgroup v2 `memory.max`, `memory.swap.max=0`, `pids.max`, and bounded CPU
-  controls owned for the one run; and
- an outer REA supervisor that can kill the complete cgroup and verify it is
-  empty.
-
-The seccomp program is passed by descriptor, has a version and digest committed
-to the replay plan, validates the syscall architecture before the syscall
-number, and never permits `ptrace`-based mediation. Seccomp reduces exposed
-kernel surface; it is not described as a complete sandbox by itself.
-
-The reference backend for the implementation PR is Bubblewrap for namespace,
-mount, and seccomp construction plus a delegated cgroup v2 manager for resource
-enforcement. REA must feature-probe the actual required operations; version
-text alone is insufficient. A setuid Bubblewrap installation, a backend that
-silently skips a requested namespace or filter, unavailable user namespaces,
-missing cgroup delegation, or inability to prove cleanup makes the capability
-unavailable. REA setup must not install or upgrade Bubblewrap, systemd, Node.js,
-or kernel components.
-
-macOS, Windows, Linux hosts without every required feature, containers that
-block the required namespaces, and alternative backends are unavailable in
-v1. They must return precise diagnostics and remediation, not a process-only or
-`vm`-only degraded mode.
-
-Node.js runs with its permission model enabled and without grants for network,
-filesystem, child processes, workers, native addons, WASI, FFI, or inspector.
-That layer is defense in depth. It is never cited as the OS security boundary,
-because Node.js explicitly does not promise containment of malicious code.
-
-### 5. Make the worker disposable and deterministic by construction
-
-Each approved run receives a new sandbox, runtime root, worker process, module
-loader, and deterministic state. No module cache, realm, timer, file, global,
-or child survives into another run. Within a multi-case run, every case gets a
-fresh realm and fresh module instances; case order and generator state are
-committed.
-
-The worker exposes a small versioned set of language primitives and explicitly
-selected stubs. It does not expose `process`, `require`, host `console`, timers,
-`fetch`, sockets, filesystem APIs, `Buffer`, worker APIs, native bindings, or
-ambient environment variables. Date/time, randomness, locale, timezone, and
-platform values come only from committed deterministic providers. An
-unsupported global or import produces an observed exception; REA does not
-substitute a convenient host implementation.
-
-Caller-provided stubs are executable untrusted code and receive the same
-sandbox treatment as recovered modules. Built-in stubs have stable IDs,
-versions, canonical source digests, and documented semantics. No undeclared
-fallback stub is allowed.
-
-Inputs are bounded canonical JSON. Results are projected without invoking
-getters, proxies, `toJSON`, or arbitrary coercion: only admitted primitives,
-arrays, and plain data properties are serialized. Cycles, accessors, functions,
-symbols, unsupported prototypes, excessive depth, excessive nodes, and
-oversized values become explicit serialization outcomes. Worker stdout is the
-framed protocol only; bounded diagnostic stderr and bounded, opt-in console
-observations remain separate.
-
-### 6. Enforce independent resource ceilings
-
-Every limit has a conservative product default. The v1 plan and result commit:
-
- an outer wall-clock deadline for the complete disposable run;
- cgroup memory, swap, task, and CPU ceilings;
- Node/V8 heap ceiling as defense in depth;
- private tmpfs bytes;
- serialized worker-protocol bytes, aggregate module bytes, and case-input
-  bytes; preset-generated cases also have a fixed preflight count ceiling;
- stdout, stderr, exception, stack, and aggregate retained-output bytes; and
- structured-result depth and node count.
-
-The parent enforces protocol and output limits while bytes arrive, before JSON
-parse or Evidence retention. The worker cannot request wider limits. A limit
-hit terminates the complete run cgroup and is an observed termination, not a
-partial successful return.
-
-### 7. Preserve exact provenance and the right Evidence authority
-
-A run that reaches worker admission produces Evidence with:
-
- provider `rea-javascript-replay` and a concrete implementation version;
- operation `run_controlled_replay`;
- authority `controlled-replay`;
- confidence `observed` for the exact returned value, thrown exception,
-  sandbox denial, limit termination, signal, exit, or crash that REA directly
-  observed;
- environment isolation `container`, the host platform/architecture, runtime
-  identity, sandbox-backend identity, and sandbox-policy digest;
- the replay plan digest, module and stub digests, canonical input or generated
-  case digests, deterministic providers, and every effective limit;
- bounded raw input, output, and exception data when retained, plus their
-  canonical digests and truncation state;
- start/admission/termination/cleanup states; and
- explicit limitations for incomplete output, nondeterminism not checked,
-  sandbox diagnostics, or cleanup that could not be proven.
-
-The host module path remains an actionable local diagnostic and Evidence
-subject location, while the worker sees only a stable alias. Module source is
-not embedded in ordinary Evidence. A separately approved reproducer may copy
-module/stub bytes or may retain path-plus-digest references; its manifest says
-which mode was used. Repository tests use source-owned fixtures, and real-app
-verification stores only digests and expected structural facts.
-
-Derived differential results use confidence `derived` and link every source
-run Evidence ID. A repeat with the same commitment can establish
-`repeat-confirmed` for those runs; a single deterministic plan is only
-`committed-not-confirmed`. Neither state proves behavior in the original
-application.
-
-When replay observations are added to the JavaScript Application Graph, their
-graph-fact authority is `controlled-replay`. A claim that the real renderer,
-preload, main process, or remote service behaves the same remains inferred or
-unknown until compatible runtime authority exists. Static inference, passive
-CDP observation, controlled replay, and real application interaction are never
-promoted into one another.
-
-### 8. Treat post-admission failures as observations
-
-Pre-admission failures return a typed error and create no claim that module code
-ran. Once the worker is admitted, REA retains a bounded execution record even
-when the requested function does not return normally.
-
-| Condition                                        | Caller result and Evidence semantics                                                                       |
-| ------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Disabled capability or missing grant             | `permission_required`/`capability_unavailable`; no worker admission and no replay observation              |
-| Sandbox/runtime probe failure                    | `capability_unavailable` with exact failed feature; no module execution                                    |
-| Plan digest mismatch or changed source           | `plan_stale`; no module execution                                                                          |
-| Sandbox setup fails before worker admission      | `execution_failure`; no controlled-replay claim about the module                                           |
-| Module returns admitted data                     | Observed return value with complete or explicitly limited coverage                                         |
-| Module throws or result serialization rejects    | Successful replay observation with outcome `exception` or `serialization_error`; application claim unknown |
-| Node permission or sandbox denies an operation   | Observed denial/termination when attributable; no claim that all attempted side effects were enumerated    |
-| Timeout, memory, CPU, task, tmpfs, or output hit | Observed limit termination; requested functional result unknown                                            |
-| Signal, runtime crash, or malformed protocol     | Observed termination plus bounded diagnostics; functional result unknown                                   |
-| Caller cancellation after admission              | Kill full cgroup, record cancellation/cleanup if possible, and project the public cancellation contract    |
-| Cleanup proves an empty cgroup and removed root  | `cleanup: complete`                                                                                        |
-| Cleanup cannot prove emptiness or removal        | `cleanup_incomplete`, name every residual resource, and do not report success                              |
-
-An exception is data, not an adapter failure. A sandbox setup error is not
-evidence that the module crashed. A timeout is not evidence that the function
-would never return. An output limit is not evidence that the truncated prefix
-equals the full result. These distinctions are part of the public contract.
-
-Cancellation and cleanup must be idempotent. REA first stops admission and
-input, kills the owned cgroup, waits for an empty-cgroup observation, removes
-the private runtime root, closes protocol descriptors, and releases timers.
-Failure at one cleanup step does not skip the remaining steps.
-
-### 9. Keep replay records reproducible without overstating determinism
-
-The canonical replay manifest commits:
-
-```text
-plan structure and policy identity
-REA/provider/runtime/sandbox executable identities and digests
-module aliases, dependency graph, bytes digests, and source references
-stub IDs, versions, source digests, and caller-provided stub digests
-canonical inputs or generator algorithm, seed, case order, and case digests
-clock, PRNG, timezone, locale, platform, and exposed-global commitments
-all resource and serialization limits
-network and filesystem projections
-expected entry export and invocation convention
-```
-
-The result manifest adds canonical output/exception/termination digests,
-coverage, dropped-data counts, cleanup state, and source Evidence links.
-Canonical digests are computed by the trusted parent; worker-provided digests
-are ignored.
-
-Reproduction requires exact manifest compatibility. A runtime, sandbox policy,
-built-in stub, module byte, generated case, limit, architecture, or platform
-change is a different experiment. Cross-environment comparison may still be a
-derived investigation, but it is never an exact replay.
-
-### 10. Expose availability and policy truth before execution
-
-`rea doctor`, capability inventory, and the planning response must report the
-JavaScript replay capability without executing application code. Diagnostics
-name the exact missing executable, unsupported host, failed namespace feature,
-cgroup delegation failure, setuid rejection, runtime mismatch, or cleanup-probe
-failure. Genuine secrets remain redacted; local executable paths, versions,
-digests, and kernel feature failures remain visible.
-
-The capability must be absent from executable tool routing until implemented.
-Accepting this ADR does not increase the current tool count and does not add a
-hidden experimental flag.
-
-## Required implementation and verification gate
-
-The implementation PR cannot merge until all of the following are true:
-
-1. `javascript_replay` exists in configuration, permission policy, project
-   grants, policy explanation, CLI, MCP, docs, and capability inventory with
-   fail-closed defaults.
-2. Plan and execute phases have schema-identical CLI/MCP behavior and an exact
-   plan-digest stale check.
-3. No replay-disabled static, browser, Electron, session, setup, doctor, or
-   application workflow can reach module execution.
-4. The worker never imports into the REA server process and no adapter offers a
-   `vm`-only fallback.
-5. The Linux backend feature-probes namespaces, seccomp installation and
-   denial, delegated cgroup v2 limits, and the exact admitted architecture.
-   Every plan content-addresses the worker, seccomp filter, Node executable,
-   ELF loader, shared-library closure, and sandbox executables.
-6. Source-owned fixtures cover parser, sanitizer, clipboard, exception,
-   ambient side-effect attempts, memory pressure, and busy loops. The worker
-   exposes no filesystem, environment, network, process, worker, native-addon,
-   timer, inspector, or ambient package-resolution API.
-7. Tests and the real verifier prove bounded protocol/diagnostics, timeout and
-   OOM cgroup termination, and observed cgroup cleanup.
-8. Evidence tests cover observed return/exception/termination, derived
-   comparison with source Evidence links, stale admission, cancellation
-   projection, and explicit limitations on application-level claims.
-9. Package verification exercises the target-free public contract. The
-   dedicated real-Linux workflow exercises the sandbox backend; environments
-   without delegated user namespaces or cgroups report truthful unavailability
-   rather than selecting a weaker backend.
-10. A real operator-local Notion-like parser or sanitizer benchmark can run
-    without committing its source, and exports only approved local reproducer
-    material.
-
-## Rejected alternatives
-
-### Reuse `browser_observe`, `electron_observe`, or `process_capture`
-
-Rejected because those grants authorize different effects. Reuse would turn a
-passive or unsandboxed process permission into recovered-code execution.
-
-### Execute in the MCP server with `vm.runInContext`
-
-Rejected because a VM context is not a security boundary and a crash, resource
-attack, or escape would compromise the long-lived session and its credentials.
-
-### Use only the Node.js permission model
-
-Rejected because Node.js documents it as a seat belt for trusted code and
-explicitly does not guarantee containment of malicious code. It remains a
-defense-in-depth layer inside the OS sandbox.
-
-### Ship a process-only fallback on unsupported hosts
-
-Rejected because it changes the security claim while preserving the same tool
-name. Unsupported hosts return unavailable.
-
-### Permit network allowlists in v1
-
-Rejected because DNS, redirects, proxies, credentials, service identity, and
-response nondeterminism would substantially expand the threat and Evidence
-model. The v1 namespace has no host or external network.
-
-### Mount the approved project root read-only
-
-Rejected because one approved module does not imply authority to disclose
-every file in its project. The parent stages only exact, digested bytes.
-
-### Treat exceptions, crashes, or limit hits as ordinary tool errors only
-
-Rejected because that discards the principal behavioral observation and makes
-negative results impossible to reproduce. Post-admission termination is
-retained with explicit functional uncertainty.
-
-## Consequences
-
- JavaScript replay is Linux-only at first and may be unavailable on containers
-  or distributions that disable user namespaces or cgroup delegation.
- The implementation requires more host probing and lifecycle code than a
-  simple Node worker, but the public security claim remains stable.
- Plans require two calls in non-interactive environments and become stale when
-  any committed input changes.
- Network-dependent modules and full application interactions are excluded;
-  their absence is explicit rather than emulated implicitly.
- Results are reproducible for the committed isolated experiment, not proof of
-  production behavior.
- Adding another sandbox backend, network mode, or application-interaction mode
-  requires a separate reviewed decision and conformance suite.

-  native addresses. Native-body bridge mapping and an actual runtime executor
-  remain future contracts.
-
-## Context
-
-Professional C# reverse engineering is not one decompiler operation. A file
-described as “.NET” can be ordinary Common Intermediate Language (CIL),
-ReadyToRun code containing both CIL and native implementations, a single-file
-deployment, C++/CLI mixed mode, Unity Mono, Unity IL2CPP, or NativeAOT. Those
-forms have different sources of truth and different native-analysis needs.
-Choosing a decompiler before classifying the artifact can therefore produce a
-plausible but false model.
-
-The durable static facts in an ordinary managed PE are its PE/CLI headers,
-metadata tables, signatures, method bodies, exception regions, and CIL. A C#
-decompiler reconstructs source-like control flow and language constructs from
-those facts. That reconstruction is valuable, but it is not the original
-source and cannot replace the underlying metadata and CIL evidence. Obfuscation
-makes names especially weak while tokens remain coordinates in only one build.
-
-REA already separates one selected deep native provider from disjoint auxiliary
-providers under [ADR-0001](0001-provider-selection-and-analysis-profiles.md).
-It also separates static evidence, passive observation, process capture, and
-interactive observation authorities. Managed analysis must fit those boundaries
-without requiring a CLR to inspect an artifact, loading target code into the
-REA process, or treating a managed token as a native address.
-
-The design is informed by exact-build, reflection-free metadata extraction,
-hash-locked method manifests, independent behavior models, and managed/native
-boundary analysis performed against a local C# application. The application,
-its decompiler output, and its runtime observations are research inputs only;
-they are not distributable REA fixtures.
-
-## Decision drivers
-
-1. Classify the deployment before selecting an analysis route.
-2. Make metadata and CIL independently inspectable without a CLR or target
-   execution.
-3. Preserve exact-build provenance while enabling structural comparison across
-   builds whose MVIDs, tokens, names, and layout differ.
-4. Compose managed and native analysis without introducing another ambiguous
-   deep-provider candidate.
-5. Keep decompiled C# useful but epistemically subordinate to canonical bytes.
-6. Analyze Linux, macOS, and Windows managed artifacts through the same local
-   CLI/MCP contracts on REA's supported hosts.
-7. Keep setup additive and prevent managed analysis from installing .NET,
-   ILSpy, an SDK, or another unrelated toolchain.
-8. Prove semantics with source-built conformance artifacts and compact,
-   operator-local real-application checks.
-
-## Terminology
-
- **Managed artifact**: a PE, bundle component, or related metadata artifact
-  that carries a CLI header, CLI metadata, CIL, or another managed-runtime
-  commitment.
- **Classification vector**: independently observed container, runtime family,
-  implementation form, and architecture. It is not one guessed label.
- **Canonical static observation**: a bounded value decoded directly from the
-  target bytes under a versioned parser contract.
- **Reconstruction**: source-like output, including decompiled C#, derived from
-  canonical observations.
- **Structural inference**: a relationship or cross-version match derived from
-  signatures, APIs, constants, control/data-flow shape, or other observations.
- **Validation**: an independently checked proposition, for example a
-  source-built oracle assertion or a behavior-model corpus result.
- **Runtime observation**: a separately authorized fact obtained by attaching,
-  loading, debugging, instrumenting, or otherwise executing code.
-
-## Decision
-
-### 1. Classify before analyzing
-
-Managed triage returns a classification vector and the observations supporting
-each dimension. Absence of a marker produces `unknown` or `not_applicable`, not
-an invented runtime family.
-
-| Dimension           | Initial values                                                                                               |
-| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| Container           | PE file, single-file bundle, bundle component, Unity metadata pair, native image, malformed, unknown         |
-| Runtime family      | .NET Framework, modern .NET, Unity Mono, Unity IL2CPP, NativeAOT, mixed CLR/native, unknown                  |
-| Implementation form | CIL, CIL plus ReadyToRun, native only, C++/CLI mixed, metadata only, unsupported, unknown                    |
-| Architecture        | PE machine plus CLI flags; component-specific architecture for bundles; conflicting or unknown when required |
-
-Target-framework attributes, assembly references, metadata stream versions,
-bundle manifests, ReadyToRun directories, and native headers are observations.
-They may support a runtime-family inference, but no single string is treated as
-authoritative when the other bytes conflict.
-
-Classification selects these routes:
-
-| Observed form                     | Managed route                                                                  | Native route and limitation                                                                                |
-| --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Ordinary Framework or modern CIL  | Full metadata, signatures, method bodies, and CIL                              | Optional only for declared interop boundaries                                                              |
-| Obfuscated CIL                    | Same canonical route; names receive no special trust                           | Optional for declared interop boundaries                                                                   |
-| Unity Mono assembly               | Same canonical route with Unity context retained                               | Optional for engine/native boundaries                                                                      |
-| ReadyToRun                        | Metadata/CIL where present; implementation availability is per method          | Selected Hopper/Ghidra analyzes native sections; CIL absence is reported per method                        |
-| C++/CLI mixed mode                | Metadata/CIL for managed members and explicit mixed-mode boundary observations | Selected Hopper/Ghidra analyzes native bodies; REA never converts tokens directly to native addresses      |
-| Single-file deployment            | Inventory the bundle, then analyze each authenticated managed component        | Selected Hopper/Ghidra analyzes the host/native components; unsupported compression remains explicit       |
-| Unity IL2CPP                      | Pair and authenticate available Unity metadata; do not claim canonical CIL     | Selected Hopper/Ghidra analyzes the generated native binary; semantic recovery is degraded until supported |
-| NativeAOT                         | Report any independently present managed metadata, otherwise no CIL claim      | Treat as a native target with NativeAOT provenance; managed source reconstruction is unavailable           |
-| Malformed or unsupported artifact | Return bounded partial observations and typed unavailable/unknown scopes       | Do not silently retry by loading or executing the file                                                     |
-
-Classification is byte-driven and bounded. File extensions, product names,
-process names, and an operator's description are hints only.
-
-### 2. Implement managed static analysis as a disjoint auxiliary provider
-
-The initial producer is a REA-owned auxiliary provider with ID
-`rea-dotnet-static`. It owns a disjoint managed-artifact operation family. It is
-not registered as a Hopper/Ghidra deep-provider candidate because it does not
-compete for the same operation names and must be able to coexist with the one
-selected native provider.
-
-```text
-                      one opened artifact/session
-                                  |
-                    SessionProviderRouter
-                      /                       \
-        rea-dotnet-static auxiliary       selected deep binding
-        PE/CLI metadata and CIL            Hopper or Ghidra
-                      \                       /
-                       explicit managed/native links
-                                  |
-                         Evidence and workflows
-```
-
-An ordinary managed artifact can therefore remain unbound to a deep native
-provider while managed operations work. ReadyToRun, C++/CLI, IL2CPP, NativeAOT,
-and interop workflows may additionally require a caller-selected native
-binding. Native-provider failure never causes managed evidence to be relabeled,
-and managed-parser failure never causes an implicit native fallback.
-
-Provider mechanics live under a provider directory such as `src/dotnet/`.
-Provider-neutral identities, evidence states, and bounded values may live in
-the domain/contracts layers. Application code composes results but does not
-parse PE headers, metadata tables, signatures, CIL, ReadyToRun headers, or
-provider-specific output.
-
-### 3. Make the production static path byte-only and execution-free
-
-`rea-dotnet-static` reads approved local bytes and implements the required
-PE/CLI metadata and CIL subset in TypeScript. It does not call any reflection
-API and does not require the .NET runtime. In particular, static inspection
-must never:
-
- call `Assembly.Load`, `Assembly.LoadFrom`, `ReflectionOnlyLoad`, or an
-  equivalent runtime loader;
- resolve target dependencies by executing target-controlled resolver code;
- run module initializers, constructors, entry points, build tasks, plugins, or
-  generated helpers;
- start the target, attach to a process, contact a service, or inherit target
-  configuration and credentials; or
- interpret a decompiler, CLR, or native-provider diagnostic as an observation
-  from the artifact bytes.
-
-The parser uses checked offsets and additions, explicit endianness, bounded
-table/heap/body counts, cycle-safe traversal, and typed partial results. A bad
-row, signature, body, resource, or stream does not authorize an unbounded retry
-or a CLR load. Complete-coverage claims require every applicable bounded region
-to have been admitted; otherwise coverage is partial, unknown, or unavailable
-with exact offsets and reasons.
-
-The caller selects the local input path directly. Local artifact
-paths, digests, MVIDs, tokens, malformed offsets, and analysis metadata are
-actionable diagnostics and are not secrets. Credentials, authorization data,
-and genuine secrets remain redacted.
-
-### 4. Bind every finding to exact artifact and producer identity
-
-Every managed result carries a commitment with at least:
-
-```text
-artifact: canonical path + byte length + SHA-256
-component: container identity + component path/name + component SHA-256, when applicable
-classification: container + runtime family + implementation form + architecture
-assembly/module: simple name + version + culture + public-key identity + module name + MVID
-producer: provider ID + exact version + analysis-affecting parameters + profile digest
-```
-
-An assembly-qualified name does not replace the artifact digest or MVID.
-Neither an MVID nor an Authenticode signature proves who authored the behavior.
-Bundle components retain both their container and component commitments so that
-bytes extracted from another host cannot be silently substituted.
-
-Method observations add:
-
-```text
-declaring type + normalized CLI signature
-build-local metadata token
-RVA/file extent when present
-raw CIL byte length + SHA-256 when the body is admitted
-decoded-instruction-tuple SHA-256 when CIL is valid
-separate max-stack, locals-token, and exception-region observations
-```
-
-The shipped `il_sha256` commits only the raw CIL byte stream identified by the
-method header's `il_size`. It does not commit the method header, local-signature
-blob, alignment padding, or extra sections such as exception clauses. Those
-facts remain separate observations and the enclosing artifact SHA-256 binds
-them to the exact file. A digest over the complete method body is not shipped.
-
-The caller-visible field remains named `normalized_il_sha256`, but its shipped
-v1 meaning is deliberately narrower than a canonical semantic CIL identity.
-For a completely decoded method, REA serializes the instruction-order array of
-`[opcode, operand_kind, operand]` tuples with JavaScript `JSON.stringify`,
-encodes that text as UTF-8, and reports its lowercase SHA-256. The tuple
-projection is defined here; the member result carries only the described
-normalized digest.
-
-Operands retain the current decoder projection: metadata and user-string
-operands are build-local lowercase hexadecimal tokens, scalar branch operands
-are decimal target CIL byte offsets, and `switch` retains only its decimal case
-count. Constants and variable indexes are decimal strings; an operand-free
-instruction uses kind `none` and value `null`. Opcode names preserve distinct
-short forms and prefix instructions, but instruction offsets, branch target
-instruction identity, switch targets, resolved token identities, method
-headers, locals, and exception regions are not part of this digest. A partial
-or malformed decode has no `normalized_il_sha256`.
-
-Consequently v1 is a deterministic decoded-tuple fingerprint, not proof of
-semantic equivalence. In particular, methods with the same opcodes and switch
-case counts can share it despite different switch targets, and token movement
-can change it without a semantic change. Cross-build comparison may use it as
-one unique-only structural tier while retaining artifact/MVID commitments and
-ambiguity; it must not describe the digest itself as token-remapped canonical
-CIL. Canonical operand resolution, complete control-flow operands,
-exception/local commitments, and an explicit algorithm version require a new
-normalized-CIL schema.
-
-Metadata tokens are reported because they are precise coordinates inside one
-module. Cross-version identity never consists of a token alone. Matching tries
-exact CIL/signature identity, then an exact declared-type/name/signature tuple,
-then structural shape; a name by itself never selects a pair. Partial or
-malformed bodies leave body facets unknown after a signature tuple pairs the
-methods. Matches cite both build commitments, both local tokens, and all
-competing candidates. V1 cannot cite a separate matching-algorithm version
-because none is exposed.
-
-### 5. Separate five evidence layers
-
-Managed workflows retain these layers independently:
-
-| Layer                  | Examples                                                              | Permitted claim                                                 |
-| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Static observation     | Metadata row, signature, CIL opcode, literal, exception region        | “These bounded bytes decode to this value.”                     |
-| Reconstruction         | Decompiled C#, async/iterator source shape, expression simplification | “This is one source-like representation of cited observations.” |
-| Structural inference   | Likely caller, field flow, behavior slice, cross-build method match   | “These cited structures support this relationship.”             |
-| Independent validation | Synthetic oracle, corpus result, second parser agreement              | “This declared proposition passed the named independent check.” |
-| Runtime observation    | Exact-build attach/load/instrumentation event                         | “This separately authorized experiment observed this event.”    |
-
-Each layer has its own producer, authority, state, confidence, coverage, and
-limitations. A readable C# method is never emitted as original source or exact
-semantic proof. A validator does not upgrade unrelated claims. Runtime
-agreement does not retroactively turn a static inference into an observation.
-
-Negative results are scope-qualified. For example, “no declared P/Invoke rows
-were found in the admitted metadata tables” does not prove the application has
-no native, dynamically resolved, generated, server-side, or protected path.
-
-### 6. Admit ILSpy only as an optional reconstruction and conformance tool
-
-REA's canonical static operations do not depend on ILSpy, a .NET SDK/runtime,
-dnlib, or Mono.Cecil. The following review was current on the decision date:
-
-| Tool                         | Reviewed coordinate | License | Runtime/host observation                                                    | Decision                                                                                         |
-| ---------------------------- | ------------------- | ------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| `System.Reflection.Metadata` | 10.0.10             | MIT     | Library targets .NET Framework 4.6.2, .NET 8/9/10, and .NET Standard 2.0    | Pinned independent metadata oracle for conformance; not shipped or invoked by production parsing |
-| `ICSharpCode.Decompiler`     | 10.1.1.8388         | MIT     | Library targets .NET Standard 2.0; output is reconstruction                 | Pinned reconstruction/differential oracle candidate                                              |
-| `ilspycmd`                   | 9.1.0.7988          | MIT     | Cross-platform .NET 8 tool; newer 10.1.1.8388 requires .NET 10              | Initial optional BYO reconstruction coordinate because it matches the source research baseline   |
-| dnlib                        | 4.5.0               | MIT     | Cross-platform library; also exposes assembly-writing APIs                  | Differential test candidate only; its writable model is outside the production trust boundary    |
-| Mono.Cecil                   | 0.11.6              | MIT     | Cross-platform .NET Framework/.NET Standard library with read/write support | Differential test candidate only; not a production dependency                                    |
-
-Coordinates and package hashes used by real verification are checked into a
-source-owned lock manifest when that verifier is implemented. “Latest” is
-never a reproducibility coordinate. A version change requires conformance and
-an explicit profile/version change.
-
-Artifact platform and REA host support are separate. The byte-only parser must
-inspect PE/CLI artifacts produced for Windows on a supported Linux or macOS REA
-host; that is not a claim that REA itself currently runs on Windows. Managed
-library/tool candidates above are cross-platform at their reviewed targets, but
-native composition remains limited by the selected Hopper/Ghidra host and
-format support. Real verification runs the canonical path on Linux and macOS
-and may run pinned oracle checks on Windows without turning that development
-check into a public Windows-host claim.
-
-If a caller-visible C# reconstruction operation is admitted, it is a distinct
-optional capability. It accepts only an exact supported BYO `ilspycmd`, records
-the tool and decompiler version, runs in an owned bounded process without
-loading target code into REA, and links output to the canonical method
-observation. Setup and installers do not download or install ILSpy, .NET, an
-SDK, or a runtime. Doctor may inspect an explicitly configured executable and
-report exact actionable incompatibility. Missing reconstruction never removes
-canonical metadata/CIL capabilities.
-
-This decision does not make a decompiler process a security sandbox. The
-initial public path can defer C# reconstruction while canonical contracts and
-process isolation are proven.
-
-### 7. Use source-built conformance and operator-local real targets
-
-The repository stores source, build descriptions, expected semantic facts,
-and tool lock manifests, but not compiled managed binaries. An isolated build
-step creates fixtures outside source directories and records their SHA-256 and
-MVID before verification. At minimum, the corpus covers:
-
- Framework-compatible and modern .NET metadata;
- AnyCPU, x86, and x64 PE/CLI flags;
- generics, nested types, overloaded signatures, properties, events, resources,
-  attributes, and constants;
- exceptions, filters, prefixes, switch branches, P/Invoke, async and iterator
-  state machines;
- obfuscated and Unicode names without assigning semantics from names;
- malformed headers, tables, heaps, signatures, bodies, and exception regions;
-  and
- two semantically related builds with different MVIDs, tokens, layout, and
-  selected names.
-
-Expected facts are checked directly and against pinned
-`System.Reflection.Metadata`; ILSpy, dnlib, or Mono.Cecil may add differential
-coverage but do not vote by majority. Disagreement is a failing or explicitly
-unsupported case, not silently normalized output.
-
-The real-application benchmark is an operator-local, opt-in osu! check derived
-from the research workflow. It accepts an explicit path plus a compact
-expectation manifest; verifies target SHA-256, MVID, architecture, and expected
-assembly identity before analysis; and emits only bounded identities, tokens,
-signatures, IL lengths/hashes, match states, and assertion results. It does not
-emit full IL, decompiled source, runtime logs, user data, credentials, or
-service/account material. No proprietary binary, hash-locked application
-manifest, or derived dump is committed to REA.
-
-### 8. Keep runtime behavior separate from static managed analysis
-
-No managed runtime planning or execution tool ships. Managed inspection does
-not execute assemblies or establish which methods ran. Where supported, direct
-process capture can record target-level inputs and outputs, but it does not
-prove CLR method execution or resolution. Internal managed behavior remains
-unknown until independently observed with suitable runtime evidence.
-
-## Public contract consequences
-
- Managed static operations will have CLI and MCP parity and produce the same
-  Evidence commitments.
- Adding managed operations changes the caller-visible tool inventory and
-  generated product catalog only in the implementation PR that admits them.
- Partial parsing includes admitted/dropped counts, exact limitations, and
-  coverage; it never returns a partial list labeled complete.
- Managed addresses distinguish file offsets, RVAs, native virtual addresses,
-  metadata tokens, and CIL offsets. They are not interchangeable.
- Cache compatibility is exact on artifact/component commitment, member-result
-  fields, parser profile, and producer version. For shipped v1,
-  `normalized_il_sha256` has no independent algorithm-version field.
- Provider-neutral workflows may compose canonical managed findings with the
-  one native binding, but every source operation retains its actual producer.
-
-## Alternatives rejected
-
-### Make ILSpy the only managed provider
-
-This would make canonical metadata/IL inventory depend on a separately
-installed CLR and conflate source reconstruction with byte observations. It
-would also make tool-version drift part of ordinary inventory. ILSpy remains a
-valuable optional reconstruction and conformance tool instead.
-
-### Use `Assembly.Load` or reflection-only loading
-
-Both delegate parsing and dependency behavior to a CLR and make static support
-runtime-dependent. Ordinary loading can execute target code; reflection-only
-loading still establishes a CLR load boundary and is unavailable across modern
-runtimes in a uniform way. Neither is required to decode ECMA-335 bytes.
-
-### Register the managed analyzer as another deep candidate
-
-That would force callers to choose managed analysis instead of Hopper/Ghidra
-for ReadyToRun and mixed-mode artifacts even though both are needed. Disjoint
-auxiliary composition represents the real ownership boundary.
-
-### Treat tokens, names, or decompiler output as durable identity
-
-Tokens and obfuscated names change across builds, while decompiler output
-changes across tools and versions. They remain useful build-local coordinates
-or reconstruction labels but are insufficient for exact or structural
-cross-version identity.
-
-### Package a .NET runtime or mutable managed library in REA
-
-This would expand installer effects, package size, patching obligations, and
-the target-parsing attack surface. The initial byte parser keeps canonical
-support within REA's existing Node runtime; external managed tools remain BYO
-or development-only oracles.
-
-## Rollout gates
-
-1. Add read-only triage and identity with malformed-input bounds. Shipped.
-2. Add metadata, signatures, method bodies, deterministic decoded-CIL tuple
-   fingerprints, and exact artifact Evidence. Shipped with the v1 limitations
-   above; full normalized-CIL semantics remain planned.
-3. Add obfuscation-resistant slices and cross-build match states. Shipped.
-4. Compose explicit managed/native boundaries with Hopper/Ghidra. Declaration
-   inventory and native export/function Evidence matching shipped; native-body
-   bridge mapping remains planned.
-5. Add source-built, pinned real-tool, package, CLI, and MCP conformance.
-   Source-owned conformance is shipped; pinned external real-tool checks remain
-   planned.
-6. Project authenticated managed static Evidence into the application graph.
-   Shipped.
-
-Every gate must keep unsupported ReadyToRun, NativeAOT, IL2CPP, mixed-mode, or
-bundle cases explicit rather than broadening claims to make a fixture pass.

+The MCP `inspect_android_package` request keeps complete output when `detail` is
+omitted or `"complete"`. Select `detail: "summary"` explicitly to receive all
+package, SDK and permission declarations, engine identity and class/resource
+counts without decoded manifest text or duplicate raw provider replies. A

+`view: {kind: "android", facet: "manifest", offset: 0, limit: 4096}` to read the
+exact decoded manifest without reopening the APK. Offsets and limits count UTF-16
+code units; follow `coverage.next_offset`. The page preserves `source_status` and
+`reported_total_bytes`: exhausting retained text does not make a partial decoded
+manifest complete. Complete source Evidence remains exportable under the existing

+target/configuration changes, failure, timeout, cancellation, MCP disconnect or

 REA never writes to the original APK or launches target code.

+On Windows, stdin writes preserve stream backpressure and run outside the Node
+event loop. Cancellation terminates the retained job, including descendants,
+before workspace cleanup. On Windows, a detached REA helper owns the private
+workspace's native directory handle. An abrupt CLI/server owner termination
+closes the Java job and the helper's input pipe; the helper then removes the
+workspace by handle. The real Windows lane checks both effects. If the helper
+also dies or the host loses power before it finishes, private files can remain.
+
+If Java cannot start the bridge, REA reports the selected executable and retained
+startup diagnostics. Select a full JDK through `JAVA_HOME` or `PATH`, and use
+`java --list-modules` to confirm `jdk.compiler` is present. A runnable JRE alone
+cannot compile the bridge. Missing or ambiguous class and method selections are
+input failures; discover names with `search_android_classes` and
+`inspect_android_class` before correcting the selected argument.
+
 If process cleanup cannot be confirmed, REA retains the workspace and reports its
 location. That provider instance blocks subsequent engine launches until the
 caller resolves the reported resources and starts a fresh instance.

+Both REA settings must be positive safe integers; processor counts must also fit

+`JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS`, `JDK_JAVA_OPTIONS` and `_JAVA_OPTIONS` rather than replacing
+them. Java's standard precedence applies: explicit command-line heap settings

+`-Xmx`, especially with Serial GC. Heap is not a total RSS cap: the JVM also
 uses native memory. Independent REA instances have independent queues. Whole

 front; upstream decompilation is limited to **90 seconds**.

+export REA_APKTOOL_COMMAND=/absolute/path/apktool

+`REA_APKTOOL_COMMAND` remediation rather than attempting an installation.
+
+On Windows, a `.bat` or `.cmd` launcher (such as Chocolatey's `apktool.bat`)
+runs through an explicit `cmd.exe /d /s /c` call. That call has no AutoRun,
+no delayed expansion, and quotes every argument. A launcher path that
+contains `"`, `%`, `^`, `!`, `&`, `|`, `<` or `>` is reported as

+  unparsed rather than flattened — the limitation names the count. The
+  default table is bounded to 2000 entries with partial coverage when more
+  exist; `locales` lists every `values-<locale>` that has a strings table.
+- **Smali is skipped by design** (`apktool d --no-src`): Java-source
+  recovery belongs to the JADX family. Resource smali edits and rebuild are
+  a follow-up lane with mutation authority.
+- **Workspaces are owned and short-lived.** Decoding happens in a
+  provider-owned temporary directory that is removed before the result is
+  returned. The APK snapshot and framework cache both live inside this directory.

+bundle reports its `parent_path`, `layout`, `info_plist_path`,
+`executable_candidates`, and `signing_paths`.

+| `shallow`             | Neither         | The bundle directory itself                   |

+Roles are path conventions (`role_basis: "path-convention"`):

+| Role                 | Path                                                            |

+
+The components also list:
+
+- `privileged_helpers`: files directly in `Contents/Library/LaunchServices/`,
+  where SMJobBless helpers live;
+- `launchd_plists`: `.plist` files directly in `Contents/Library/LaunchAgents/`
+  (`domain: "agent"`) or `Contents/Library/LaunchDaemons/` (`domain: "daemon"`),
+  as used by SMAppService;
+- `helpers`: files directly in `Contents/Helpers/`.
+
+Symlinks are reported by path in `symlinks`. Their targets are not inventoried,
+so a versioned framework is described through its real `Versions/<version>/`
+directories rather than `Versions/Current`. A framework's `info_plist_path` is
+`null`, with a limitation explaining why, when it has more than one real
+`Versions/<version>/` directory (even if only one of them holds a plist,
+because `Versions/Current` decides which one applies) or when its single
+version directory has no `Resources/Info.plist`.
+
+AppleDouble sidecar files (`._*` and `__MACOSX/`) are inventory facts, but they
+describe neighbouring files. They are excluded from roots, bundle roles, and the
+anatomy components.
+
+The projection does not read plists. Use `inspect_plist` on a bundle's
+`info_plist_path` or a launchd plist to read `CFBundleExecutable`, identifiers,
+`SMPrivilegedExecutables`, `BundleProgram`, URL schemes, and usage descriptions.
+Use `inspect_signature` on an executable candidate for code-signing claims.
+
+## Dylib load resolution
+
+`trace_dylib_resolution` answers which file each Mach-O dylib load reaches. It
+runs on the active Mach-O, or on every executable in the active `.app`. Each
+executable in a bundle (the main app, XPC services, app extensions, login items,
+privileged helpers, and helper tools) is a separate process root with its own
+`@executable_path`.
+
+```sh
+rea trace-dylib-resolution MyApp.app --json
+rea trace-dylib-resolution MyApp.app --root Contents/MacOS/MyApp --architecture arm64 --json
+```
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "trace_dylib_resolution",
+  "arguments": { "roots": ["Contents/MacOS/MyApp"], "architecture": "arm64" }
+}
+```
+
+Load commands are parsed in TypeScript from Mach-O and FAT headers, including
+the `dylib_use_command` encoding newer linkers emit for flags such as delayed
+initialization. Nothing is executed and no Apple tool is required, so the tool
+also works off macOS.
+
+Resolution follows dyld:
+
+- `@executable_path` is the directory of the process root's executable. It is
+  undetermined when the root is a library.
+- `@loader_path` is the directory of the image that holds the load command, or
+  of the image that owns the `LC_RPATH` entry being expanded.
+- `@rpath` tries each `LC_RPATH` of the loading image first, then those of the
+  image that loaded it, up to the process root.
+- Dependencies load dependents-first in load-command order, and each image
+  loads once per process. A later @rpath request whose install name matches an
+  already loaded image reuses it.
+- Symlinks such as `Versions/Current` are followed inside the analyzed root.
+  An escape through `..` or an absolute link is `escapes-target`.
+
+Each edge lists every candidate path tried, with its outcome: `resolved`,
+`absent`, `not-mach-o`, `malformed`, `unsupported` (recognized Mach-O outside
+parser coverage, such as big-endian images), `architecture-missing`,
+`outside-target`, `escapes-target`, or `undetermined`. Slices follow dyld's
+graded architectures, so an `x86_64h` process also loads `x86_64`. The edge's `resolution` is one of:
+
+| Status         | Meaning                                                                                                                                                   |
+| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `resolved`     | An image inside the analyzed root loads, and no earlier candidate was undeterminable.                                                                     |
+| `conditional`  | An image inside the root resolves, but an earlier candidate outside the root (for example `/usr/lib/swift`) would win if it exists on the running system. |
+| `unresolved`   | Every candidate is definitively absent or unusable inside the root.                                                                                       |
+| `undetermined` | No candidate resolves inside the root, and some candidate lies outside it or depends on the environment.                                                  |
+
+A `conditional` image is still traced, because it is the image the analyzed
+root supplies. Every edge below it has `loader_conditional: true`, and a
+request that reuses it by install name is `conditional` too. Findings on those
+edges say that they apply only if the conditional image loads.
+
+Absolute install names such as `/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib` are
+`outside-target`. On macOS 11 and later most of them live in the dyld shared
+cache rather than on disk, so REA does not check them against the host.
+
+`findings` are derived, not observed:
+
+- `required-load-unresolved`, `weak-load-unresolved`, and `lazy-load-unresolved`.
+  `LC_LAZY_LOAD_DYLIB` dependencies are resolved but not traversed, because dyld
+  loads them on first use; an unresolved one is not a launch failure.
+- `earlier-rpath-candidate-absent`: a compatible Mach-O placed at an earlier
+  modeled search path could take precedence, subject to unmodeled search inputs
+  and code-signing library validation. These findings do not establish which
+  image dyld will load; use `inspect_signature` for signing metadata.
+- `dyld-environment-present`: preserves observed `LC_DYLD_ENVIRONMENT` entries.
+  Only an executable root supplies process settings; entries on library and
+  other non-executable roots do not alter resolution or coverage. Applicable
+  executable image-selection overrides are not modeled.
+
+Empty dyld settings have different consumers. Modern dyld appends a slash and
+image name to ordinary and fallback directory entries, so an empty entry can
+search `/child.dylib` or `/Foo.framework/Foo`. REA retains uncertainty for those
+unchecked paths; an empty fallback does not preempt an ordinary-search hit.
+Empty versioned-directory lists do not scan a directory, and empty suffixes
+only repeat the original candidate, so they do not add search uncertainty.
+Reported command values are retained in all cases.
+
+`verify:macos-bundle` checks the parser against `otool -l` for every traced
+image. It also compares the predicted load order of two process roots with the
+images dyld actually loads (`DYLD_PRINT_LIBRARIES`).

+# Offline binary diagnostics
+
+`inspect_binary_layout` / `inspect-binary-layout` answers what an explicit
+file contains: section/segment layout, original symbols/relocations, static
+linkage names and mitigation indicators. It works without an active Hopper,
+Ghidra or IDA target. CTF is one possible use; crash triage, compatibility and
+ordinary binary inspection use the same modular capability.
+
+## Bring your own engine
+
+Initial real verification covers **Linux x64, ELF64 x86-64 little-endian
+EXEC/DYN/REL**. Provide an absolute Python executable whose environment already
+contains unchanged pwntools 4.15.0, pyelftools 0.33 and Unicorn 2.1.2:
+
+```sh
+REA_PWNTOOLS_PYTHON=/absolute/isolated-env/bin/python \
+  rea inspect-binary-layout ./selected.elf --json
+```
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "inspect_binary_layout",
+  "arguments": { "path": "/artifacts/selected.elf" }
+}
+```
+
+REA never installs Python, packages or GDB, changes a user init file, launches
+the selected object as a host process, or requests runtime library resolution. The Python process
+uses isolated mode and an owned cache. Exact upstream profiles are recorded in
+[upstream provenance](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/third_party/pwntools/README.md).
+
+## Interpreting results
+
+- Artifact path, SHA-256 and size identify original selected bytes. All parsing
+  reads an owned stable snapshot; the original is unchanged.
+- Addresses, offsets, lengths and flags are hexadecimal strings. A linked
+  address is not a runtime address. Runtime load base remains null. A zero
+  EXEC/DYN entry means absent; a relocatable entry is not applicable.
+- Each symbol retains its table and entry index. Its reported value can mean
+  undefined, alignment, absolute value, no address, unknown section index,
+  section offset, TLS offset or linked virtual address. Duplicate names remain
+  separate entries. SHN_XINDEX remains unresolved in the selected upstream
+  representation; its external index table is not silently treated as resolved.
+- Relocatable objects have section-relative relocations and no executable entry
+  claim. Signed REL/RELA relocation addends are decimal strings. Packed RELR
+  tables retain full original bytes and upstream-decoded offsets as derived
+  evidence, with per-offset packed-word locations and implicit addends unknown.
+  Overall relocation inventory completeness remains unknown.
+  A relocatable SHN_UNDEF target or inactive SHT_NULL header remains an explicit
+  unknown with the original reported section index and offset.
+- REL/RELA symbol references retain their original table and entry indices.
+  Positive indices resolve through a validated symbol table; symbol index zero
+  means a zero symbol value without a table lookup, including when no table is
+  linked. Malformed references fail with the affected section and symbol index.
+- Section-name and symbol tables require declared SHT_STRTAB links.
+  SHN_UNDEF explicitly means no section names: display is empty, raw name and
+  location unknown, with the original name offsets retained. Extended section-name
+  indices resolve through section zero and undergo the same validation.
+- Symbol tables require a declared SHT_STRTAB link. Name offsets and terminators
+  must stay inside the declared string table; malformed references fail before
+  unrelated bytes can become names. Dynamic dependencies use DT_STRTAB/DT_STRSZ
+  with a unique file-backed mapping; ambiguous or unbacked mappings are
+  explicitly unsupported.
+- Name display strings use UTF-8 replacement for opaque bytes, including
+  sectionless dependency names and interpreter paths. Raw name
+  bytes and string-table ranges retain observed identity where resolvable;
+  ranges include the terminating NUL and base64 bytes exclude it.
+- NOBITS and NULL sections provide no file bytes. Reported file-backed ranges
+  are checked against snapshot size again at the public boundary. PT_NULL payload
+  fields are unused: reported numbers remain, file backing is none and interpreted
+  permissions are null. Segments with zero file size also have no file bytes.
+- Sectionless dynamic images still report dependency names with raw bytes and
+  file locations where uniquely mapped. Missing symbol/relocation section tables
+  do not establish that those runtime tables are absent.
+  Upstream RELRO/canary heuristics rely on sections and can be incomplete in
+  this case; their reported candidates retain an explicit coverage limitation.
+- DT_NEEDED/PT_INTERP are reported names, not resolved runtime paths. GOT/PLT
+  maps are derived convenience views and may collapse aliases. PLT inference
+  can emulate selected instructions in Unicorn; its outputs are static candidates.
+  Exec syscall tracing observes host process launches. Map completeness
+  remains unknown and original upstream warnings are returned inline.
+- Canary, PIE, NX, executable-stack and RELRO are static inferences. NX and
+  executable-stack are separate upstream indicators: on x86-64 an executable
+  stack can accompany an unknown (`null`) NX indicator. ET_DYN can be a shared
+  library, and an absent canary symbol does not prove every function unprotected.
+
+When complete layout Evidence is already retained, `inspect_analysis_view` /
+`inspect-analysis-view` projects a summary, the mitigations or linkage facet,
+one section or symbol, or a stable page without re-running the decoder. CLI
+one-shot invocations pass portable inline Evidence JSON; an MCP session uses
+the retained `evidence_id`. Page `limit` is required and bounded by the
+measured MCP stdio budget documented on the tool contract.
+
+Over MCP, `inspect_binary_layout` with `"detail": "summary"` retains the
+complete layout Evidence in the session and returns only its summary view.
+Its `normalized_result.parent_evidence_id` names the retained layout for later
+section, symbol, mitigation or linkage views. The default `complete` detail and
+CLI output are unchanged.
+
+Complete results have a 32 MiB input, 64 MiB reply, 1 MiB combined diagnostics
+and 30-second owned command deadline. `REA_PWNTOOLS_MAX_INPUT_BYTES` raises the
+input bound alone, up to 1 GiB; the reply and deadline bounds are unchanged. The
+reply budget applies to the decoder record; the CLI/MCP Evidence envelope adds
+copies and encoding overhead. The
+pinned MCP SDK defaults to a 10 MiB receive buffer. Large complete results need
+a caller-configured `StdioClientTransport({ maxBufferSize: ... })` and a matching
+server `REA_MCP_MAX_RESPONSE_BYTES`. See [MCP delivery budgets](mcp-contracts.md#tool-results).
+These settings affect delivery, not decoder coverage or limits. The large
+extended-index verification uses 256 MiB and an explicit five-minute request
+timeout in its separate opt-in MCP lane. REA does not silently truncate the result. Python lowers resource soft limits to at most 3 GiB virtual address space,
+30 CPU seconds and 64 MiB file output. Inherited tighter soft/hard limits are
+retained, and the effective values are returned in the result limitations. Virtual address space is not RSS;
+Unicorn needs a large virtual map. Limits fail with no partial success, and
+owned process/root cleanup completes independently of cancellation.
+
+Core files, GDB session/state/control, optional pwndbg enrichment and instruction
+inspection are separate increments tracked by #969. This increment makes no
+real support claim for those features or other operating systems/architectures.
+
+Typed decoder failures retain bounded `captured_output` (stdout, stderr and an
+explicit truncation flag) alongside the original failure category and reason.
+Successful `diagnostics` also exposes the supervisor's `truncated` flag. Output
+beyond the complete diagnostic budget is rejected, including when the decoder
+writes a valid reply; cleanup and late cancellation reuse the observed flag.
+Memory allocation failures use `resource_constraint`, with effective resource
+limits (or an explicit unknown) and memory-specific recovery guidance. A
+MemoryError alone does not establish the exact failed allocation or that a
+particular budget was exhausted. Invalid undersized symbol entries are rejected
+before REA reports source ranges for them.
+The bridge reserves 1 MiB to report allocation failures. If even error reporting
+or serialization fails with MemoryError, its reserved exit status preserves the
+resource classification with unknown effective limits.
+Reserved exits require a matching private marker written by the bridge's actual
+failure branch. Bare launcher exits or missing/unwritable markers retain process
+diagnostics with the resource cause unverified.
+Signal termination alone is never classified as observed memory exhaustion.
+The small bootstrap also covers catchable MemoryError during adapter imports,
+compilation and initialization. Python interpreter startup failures before the
+bootstrap runs retain their observed process diagnostics without guessed causes.
+SIGXCPU retains a CPU resource diagnostic and CPU-specific recovery advice.
+Observed EFBIG writes or SIGXFSZ termination retain a file-size resource
+diagnostic and file-size-specific recovery advice. If a tight file limit also
+prevents writing the limit record, effective values remain unknown.
+The bridge records actual limits in owned storage before analysis; missing or
+malformed limit reports remain unknown with their read failure preserved. A
+received signal alone does not establish its exact cause. Dynamic tags require
+a complete DT_NULL inside PT_DYNAMIC; interpreter names and ranges end at the
+first NUL, with any padding still represented by the original segment range.
+
+## Portable PE resources
+
+`inspect_pe_resources` / `inspect-pe-resources` inspects an explicit PE32 or
+PE32+ file without an active target, native engine, Python, or Windows SDK:
+
+```sh
+rea inspect-pe-resources ./selected.exe --json
+```
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "inspect_pe_resources",
+  "arguments": { "path": "/artifacts/selected.exe" }
+}
+```
+
+The complete Evidence identifies the stable artifact snapshot by path, byte
+count and SHA-256. Resources retain separate type, name and language identities:
+numeric IDs are distinct from UTF-16 names, whose original bytes are also
+reported. Directory headers, entries, data entries and payloads retain original
+file offsets and lengths. Each opaque payload has its own SHA-256; code page and
+reserved data-entry fields are preserved.
+
+RT_GROUP_ICON records expose original image descriptors and RT_ICON candidates.
+A reference resolves only when an icon with the same numeric ID and language
+exists. Missing references, other-language candidates and declared-size mismatch
+remain explicit. Encoded dimensions are preserved (zero denotes 256 pixels).
+This is static reference inspection; no image decoding, language fallback,
+resource loading or selected-file execution occurs.
+
+An absent resource data directory is a complete empty inventory. Malformed
+headers, truncated tables, cycles, duplicate sibling identities, unbacked or
+ambiguous RVA mappings, nonidentical overlapping ranges and unsupported tree
+shapes fail explicitly, rather than returning partial inventories. Exact shared
+payload ranges are supported. The supported tree has three levels: type, name,
+and language. Other resource payload formats remain opaque.
+
+`max_file_bytes` defaults to 64 MiB (maximum 512 MiB); `max_entries` defaults to
+16384, the largest stock Windows resource image measured with headroom
+(maximum 65536). CLI options are `--max-file-bytes` and `--max-entries`.
+Metadata is bounded to 8 MiB; exceeding any budget fails without truncation.
+Large Evidence envelopes may require a caller-configured MCP transport receive
+buffer because envelope copies add overhead. Requests honor cancellation during
+snapshot reading, directory traversal and payload hashing. The operation reads
+regular files only and rejects symbolic links.

 - `list_browser_targets` / `rea list-browser-targets` discovers all eligible page targets at the endpoint by default, with an optional exact-origin filter.
 - `inspect_web_page` / `rea inspect-web-page` captures DOM structure, accessibility nodes, scripts, resources, safe response/DOM metadata, attach-window network and console metadata, WebSocket frame sizes, workers, quota, and optionally selected storage key names, redacted storage-content fingerprints, or script sources.
 - `analyze_web_bundle` / `rea analyze-web-bundle` parses selected script artifacts without execution and derives chunk edges, route and endpoint candidates, vendor fingerprints, static WebMCP declarations, and optionally source-map/original-source evidence.
 - `observe_web_session` / `rea observe-web-session` arms an observation window of the requested duration for an external user action and records ordered reload, SPA navigation, redirect, failure, lifecycle, and target-termination metadata.
- `discover_webmcp_tools` / `rea discover-webmcp-tools` uses the experimental CDP WebMCP domain to return every in-scope registration and its complete structural input-schema summary inline. Registrations with the same name and URL in distinct observed frames retain separate identities. `tool_key` includes the observed frame ID; it is not a stable identity across navigation or browser sessions. Same-frame registration updates replace that owner only, and removal leaves other owners intact. REA never exposes `WebMCP.invokeTool`; malformed protocol payloads fail explicitly instead of returning incomplete tool metadata.
+- `discover_webmcp_tools` / `rea discover-webmcp-tools` uses the experimental CDP WebMCP domain to return every in-scope registration and its complete observed `input_schema` declaration and canonical `input_schema_sha256` digest inline. Declarations are untrusted JSON data, including declared types, required fields, enums, examples and reference URLs. REA does not resolve schema references. These fields replace `input_schema_shape`. Registrations with the same name and URL in distinct observed frames retain separate identities. `tool_key` includes the observed frame ID; it is not a stable identity across navigation or browser sessions. Same-frame registration updates replace that owner only, and removal leaves other owners intact. REA never exposes `WebMCP.invokeTool`; malformed protocol payloads fail explicitly instead of returning incomplete tool metadata.
 - `compare_web_captures` / `rea compare-web-captures` compares passive captures or exact-step-aligned browser scenarios. Scenario results commit reproducible literal normalization and expose alignment failures plus artifact-level action, screenshot, DOM, accessibility, URL, history, storage, and event differences. Missing or truncated evidence is never treated as equivalence.
 - `capture_web_screenshot` / `rea capture-web-screenshot` returns a content-addressed visible-viewport PNG.
 - `compare_web_screenshots` / `rea compare-web-screenshots` performs bounded local PNG pixel comparison without OCR or external services.
+- The CLI comparison commands accept each capture, screenshot artifact or normalization policy as inline JSON or a JSON file path. Use files for screenshot artifacts and scenario captures, whose embedded PNG bytes can exceed the host's command-line length limit.
 - Every surface has equivalent CLI and MCP contracts and returns Evidence provenance.
 - MCP tools return complete results inline and include the Evidence ID. Session evidence can be exported with `export_evidence_bundle`.

 Target discovery returns the complete in-scope target array in one result.

+## Screenshot comparison memory budget
+
+`compare_web_screenshots` admits both PNGs against a 256 MiB estimated
+working-memory budget before inflating either image. This is a processing
+buffer budget for this operation, not a PNG dimension limit, CDP transport
+limit, or process RSS guarantee. Header-valid dimensions that exceed the
+budget return `resource_constraint` with `details.resource: "memory"` and the
+estimated and maximum working-set bytes. Invalid PNG structure remains
+malformed input; encodings outside supported pixel-comparison coverage remain
+unsupported-target errors.
+
+The conservative estimate includes the two decoder-owned decoded input
+buffers, the current image's concatenated IDAT buffer, Node zlib's default
+16 KiB output chunk backing rounded up for retained chunks, the concatenated
+inflate result while its output chunks are retained, one possible extra output
+chunk before zlib checks `maxOutputLength`, unfiltered scanline storage,
+RGB-to-RGBA expansion, and the first retained RGBA image while the second is
+decoded. RGBA output aliases its unfiltered buffer and is counted once.
+Admission uses checked integer arithmetic before image-sized allocation.
+Caller-owned JSON/base64 strings, input parsing and validation, transport
+buffers, garbage-collector behavior, and other runtime memory are outside this
+estimate; the budget does not promise a bound on total process memory.

 REA does not launch, own, or terminate this browser. Use a dedicated profile and stop it yourself when the investigation is complete. Do not expose the debugging port on a non-loopback interface.

+Other Chromium-family browsers, such as Chromium or Brave, work the same way

+`"/Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome"` or
+`"/Applications/Brave Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/Brave Browser"`. Fedora installs

+REA needs the browser's HTTP discovery endpoint on a loopback port. A browser
+driven over `--remote-debugging-pipe` or a private channel, for example by an
+automation SDK, exposes no such endpoint, so `list_browser_targets` has nothing
+to attach to. Connection failures report `endpoint_unreachable`; a reachable

+`invalid_endpoint_response`.

+URL. See [the startup investigation](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1384#issuecomment-6093781686).
+
+### Browsers without HTTP discovery
+
+Some browsers expose a loopback browser WebSocket but no `/json/version` or
+`/json/list`. Chrome 144 and later can enable remote debugging on a running
+browser from `chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging`; this mode is reported to
+serve only the browser socket. Since Chrome 136, `--remote-debugging-port` is
+ignored for the default profile, so this is the remaining way to inspect a page
+in an existing profile.
+
+For such a browser, pass the browser socket instead of the HTTP endpoint:
+
+```bash
+rea list-browser-targets ws://127.0.0.1:9222/devtools/browser/<id>
+```
+
+Chrome writes the port and the `/devtools/browser/<id>` path to the
+`DevToolsActivePort` file in its user data directory. REA does not read that
+file for you.
+
+- Only `list_browser_targets`, `inspect_web_page`, `analyze_web_bundle`,
+  `observe_web_session`, `discover_webmcp_tools`, and `capture_web_screenshot`
+  accept a browser socket. Website runtime attribution, Electron inspection,
+  and scenario attach mode still require HTTP discovery.
+- Each call opens one WebSocket and uses it for discovery
+  (`Browser.getVersion`, `Target.getTargets`) and for the selected page.
+  Discovery must finish within the same 10-second deadline as HTTP discovery.
+  Chrome may ask you to approve each connection.
+- The browser identifier controls access to the socket. Evidence records the
+  endpoint as `ws://127.0.0.1:9222/devtools/browser/[REDACTED]`.
+- `browser.revision` is the socket's `Browser.getVersion` value, such as
+  `@e533e98…`. HTTP discovery reports `WebKit-Version`, such as
+  `537.36 (@e533e98…)`.
+- `Target.getTargets` reports whether each target is attached. Chrome's
+  `/json/list` can omit it, so HTTP discovery may report `attached` as `null`.
+- An existing profile can hold many unrelated pages. Target listing returns
+  each eligible page's URL and title, so pass `--allowed-origins` to list only
+  the origins you are investigating.
+
+A browser driven only through `--remote-debugging-pipe` or a vendor's private
+automation channel has neither endpoint, and REA cannot attach to it.
+
 ## Request boundary

+CDP connections enforce the shared 64 MiB limit per WebSocket message. A larger
+reply, including a valid reply from Chrome, fails with `payload_limit`. The limit
+counts message bytes before JSON parsing; it does not bound the memory used by
+decoded strings or JSON objects.

Scripts are different: scripts the page parsed before REA attached are still reported under `scripts`.

+Source maps are not fetched by inspection. Bundle analysis fetches them only when `fetch_source_maps` is selected, with exact-origin redirect checks and no credentials, cookies, or referrer. Each fetch operation has a 30-second deadline and a 64 MiB aggregate streamed-response budget across redirects. A deadline or byte-limit failure remains explicitly unavailable and makes bundle completeness partial. Source-map decoding also bounds raw resolved identities to 64 MiB and aggregate inline evidence to 32 MiB. Failed maps preserve their failure context when it fits; if another context cannot fit, collection stops with the full requested count, the returned processed count, and an explicit unknown-results limitation.
