ida-assisted-ios-analysis

ida-assisted-ios-analysis is a skill for Claude Code from gyh20062008-commits/re-ios. It costs 74 tokens per session (740 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An optional helper for analyzing authorized iPhone and iPad Mach-O binaries with IDA Pro. It can provide deeper evidence about functions, symbols, strings, references, code calls, and network-related details.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to examine authorized iOS binaries or IDB files, trace callers and callees, inspect Objective-C or Swift code, and investigate imports, endpoints, and network evidence.
Why use it?
It adds detailed static analysis when ordinary binary inspection is not enough, without making IDA Pro required for the basic workflow.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ida-assisted-ios-analysis scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 88 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

IDA Assisted iOS Analysis

This is an optional enhancement for authorized iOS Mach-O analysis. The base ios-reverse-engineering workflow must remain usable without IDA, IDA MCP, or an IDB.

Safety Rules

  • Only analyze binaries or IDBs the user is authorized to inspect.
  • Keep analysis static unless the user explicitly provides an authorized lab runtime scope.
  • Do not bypass FairPlay DRM, steal tokens, bypass certificate pinning, or attack discovered services.
  • Treat endpoint strings as evidence, not permission to make network requests.

MCP Availability

The plugin root includes .mcp.json with a default MCP server named ida using:

{
  "command": "ida-pro-mcp"
}

Before using IDA MCP, run:

bin/ida-pro-mcp-check

If ida-pro-mcp is missing, report that IDA-assisted analysis is unavailable and continue with the base static workflow if useful.

Workflow

  1. Verify ida-pro-mcp and IDA Pro availability with bin/ida-pro-mcp-check.
  2. Ask the user to open the authorized Mach-O or IDB in IDA if the MCP server requires an active IDA session.
  3. Verify MCP connectivity with the available IDA MCP status or metadata tool.
  4. Confirm the loaded file matches the requested Mach-O or IDB.
  5. List functions, imports, exports, and strings.
  6. Search for:
    • URLSession
    • NSURLRequest
    • Alamofire
    • AFNetworking
    • Apollo
    • GraphQL
    • WebSocket
    • token
    • authorization
    • signature
    • hmac
    • nonce
    • timestamp
  7. For endpoint strings, run xref analysis from each string address.
  8. For each referencing function, inspect callers and callees.
  9. Decompile or disassemble narrow target functions only when needed for evidence.
  10. Write:
    • ida-findings.md
    • ida-call-flow.md
    • ida-network-evidence.json

IDAPython Export Template

If MCP tooling supports running scripts, use:

scripts/ida_export_template.py

Set IDA_IOS_OUT or pass an output directory argument so the script writes the three ida-* files to the desired folder.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
