rev-idapython

rev-idapython is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from P4nda0s/reverse-skills. It costs 84 tokens per session (5,183 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A reference and workflow skill for IDAPython and IDALib, the Python interfaces for the IDA reverse-engineering tool. It covers analyzing programs, debugging them, and working with IDA databases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Writing IDAPython scripts, running headless analysis, editing IDB databases, debugging, inspecting memory and registers, traversing code, and using the Hex-Rays decompiler API.
Why use it?
It helps developers write scripts and automate tasks in IDA without having to look up the relevant APIs and data structures each time.

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

rev-idapython scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 7d 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.

Runs shell commandslowCapability

Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.

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.
