Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00180 | $0.04270 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00090 | $0.02135 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00036 | $0.00854 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00427 |
Grade A, and why
ida-reverse 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 2d 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.

Known Issues and Lessons Learned (must read)
Pitfalls encountered
-
idalib_opencannot be called directly through the MCP of certain code AI clients- The MCP client of certain code AI clients has a BUG in its output schema validation for
idalib_open - Error:
Structured content does not match the tool's output schema - Solution: Use the
scripts/open.ps1script to call the HTTP API directly, bypassing the MCP validation layer - Once the file is opened, the database is bound to the shared context, and all other
idapro_*tools can be used directly
- The MCP client of certain code AI clients has a BUG in its output schema validation for
-
Files under
C:\Windows\System32\cannot be opened due to permissions- idalib cannot directly read files in the System32 directory
- Solution:
open.ps1automatically detects this and copies the file to atemporary directorybefore opening
-
Server startup command blocks the conversation
- After
idalib-mcpstarts, it continuously outputs INFO logs to the console - Solution: Use
scripts/start.ps1(starts silently in the background with-WindowStyle Hidden) - The script waits until the service is ready, then exits automatically without blocking the conversation
- After
-
MCP server names cannot contain hyphens
- Previously
ida-pro-mcpwas used as the server name, which could cause tool registration issues - Current configuration: server name
idapro, tool prefixidapro_*
- Previously
-
Remote HTTP vs Local Stdio
type:"local"(stdio) mode:idalib_openhas the same schema validation problemtype:"remote"(HTTP) mode: you can open the file directly with the script first, then use the MCP tools- Current approach: Remote HTTP mode
What ships with it
3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

ida-reverse is a skill published in the GitHub repository xAmirHamza77/ReverseOps-Skill (4 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 180 tokens to every session and 4,270 once invoked, about $0.0009 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
