A developer successfully reverse-engineered the Claude Slides editor using the open-source tool REA (Reverse Engineer Anything), achieving near-complete functional replication. The workflow combined Codex for installation, REA Skills for handling obfuscated code, and Claude Code 5.5 for structural refactoring, while bypassing direct prompt extraction by generating equivalent prompts through dialogue. This case demonstrates the practical application of AI agents in software reverse engineering and feature migration.

    • REA acts as an MCP service seamlessly integrating with Codex/Claude Code for automated reverse analysis from binary/JS to pseudocode.
    • For obfuscated code, a two-step method of 'REA initial restoration + Claude Code 5.5 structural rewriting' significantly improves code quality.
    • Bypassing direct system prompt extraction by asking the model to 'mimic effects' to generate equivalent Prompts is an effective black-box testing strategy.
