## Purpose

Source: AI-written repository summary; verify against source.

> REA is a TypeScript/Node.js-based MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and CLI tool that enables AI agents and developers to reverse engineer software across binaries, mobile apps, web bundles, and runtime behavior.

## Main parts

> Entry & CLI: CLI commands and message routing that expose reverse-engineering operations to users and agents.

## Evidence gaps

> RepoPilot has not run the setup commands or tests.
> Files marked “likely” are guessed from their names.
> Some entry points named in the manifest are build output or are missing from the file list, so their source is not shown.
> Could not capture package-lock.json: source unavailable or larger than the capture limit. Open its source link to check setup.
> Setup has not been executed. Environment variables, external services and command order may require additional source documentation.
