ghidra-reverse

ghidra-reverse is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zhaoxuya520/reverse-skill. It costs 43 tokens per session (823 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to using the free Ghidra toolkit for reverse engineering compiled programs. It explains how to import a file, decompile it into a readable approximation of its source code, follow references, and automate batch analysis.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect executable files, locate important functions through strings and system calls, run headless analysis in scripts or CI, and connect Ghidra to an AI assistant when configured.
Why use it?
It provides an option for analyzing binaries when IDA Pro is unavailable or when many files must be processed. It also helps turn low-level code into findings that can be reviewed and documented.

About the project

Reverse Skill is a routing package for AI coding agents that selects appropriate reverse-engineering, penetration-testing, and security-research methods and tools for a given target. It is used for tasks involving APKs, binaries, frontend JavaScript, packet captures, CTF challenges, and authorized penetration testing. Its catalogue add-ons provide the skills and instructions that guide these workflows.

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.

Fable 5.1 $0.00043 $0.00823
Opus 5 $0.00022 $0.00411

Security

Grade A, and why

ghidra-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 6d 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.

What it actually says

Ghidra Reverse Engineering

ACTION REQUIRED(读完后立刻执行)

  1. NOW: 读取 ../field-journal/precedent-reverse.md
  2. NOW: 确认需要 Ghidra(无 IDA / 偏好开源 / 批量 headless)
  3. NEXT: 读 ../tool-index.md 查 ghidra / ghidra-mcp 路径
  4. NEXT: 缺工具 → bootstrap ghidra-mcp(若 manifest 支持)或按手动步骤装 Ghidra
  5. ACT: 导入样本 → 自动分析 → 导出关键函数反编译

适用场景

  • 无 IDA 许可证时的主逆向入口
  • 批量 headless 分析 / CI 中反编译
  • Ghidra 脚本(Java/Python Jython/PyGhidra)自动化
  • binary-diff / patch-diff-exploit 的 ghidriff 联动

与 IDA 分工

需求 优先
已有 IDA MCP 深挖 ida-reverse/
开源 / 批量 / 教学 本 skill
仅 CLI 快速侦察 radare2/

工作流

1. 项目与自动分析

□ 新建 Project → Import 文件 → Analyze(默认分析器)
□ 记录语言/编译器识别结果与基址
□ 标记入口、导出表、字符串 xref

2. 关键函数

□ 从字符串 / 导入 API 反查
□ Decompile 窗口还原算法
□ 重命名函数/变量;写 Plate comment
□ 需要动态时交接 Frida/GDB(reverse-engineering 动态章)

3. Headless(批量)

# 示例:analyzeHeadless 路径因安装而异,MUST 从 tool-index 取
analyzeHeadless /path/to/project Proj -import sample.bin -postScript ExportDecomp.py

4. MCP(若已配置)

□ 确认 ghidra MCP 端口(常见 8765,以 tool-index 为准)
□ 用 MCP 工具拉反编译 / xrefs,禁止猜端口

工具链

工具 用途 自举
Ghidra 反编译主工具 手动 release / 包管理器
ghidra-mcp AI 桥 bootstrap 能力名 ghidra-mcp
ghidriff 补丁差分 patch-diff-exploit

参考

  • references/ghidra-cheatsheet.md
  • ../ida-reverse/ ../radare2/ ../binary-diff/

路由上下文

上游: MASTER R22
下游: 动态验证 → Frida/GDB;利用 → pwn-chain
同级: ida-reverse(商业深挖)

任务完成自检

  • 是否基于真实 Ghidra/tool-index 路径?
  • 是否标注函数地址与重命名?
  • 是否有可复现步骤?
  • Checklist / journal?
Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.

Changes

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.
