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.
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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00035 | $0.00571 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00285 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00114 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00057 |
Grade A, and why
macos-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 3d 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
macOS / Mach-O Reverse Engineering
ACTION REQUIRED（读完后立刻执行）
NOW: 读取../field-journal/precedent-reverse.mdNOW: 确认目标为 macOS/Mach-O/App bundle（iOS IPA →mobile-reverse/）NEXT: tool-index；jtool2/lldb 等ACT: 签名与装载信息 → 静态 → 动态（lldb/Frida）
适用场景
- Mach-O 可执行文件 / dylib / framework
- .app bundle、LaunchAgent/Daemon
- Objective-C / Swift 符号与 runtime
- 公证/签名、Hardened Runtime、TCC 相关行为分析
- macOS 恶意软件静态/动态分析（联合 malware-analysis）
工作流
1. 包体与签名
file target
codesign -dv --verbose=4 target
spctl -a -vv target 2>&1
otool -L target
2. 静态
□ class-dump / swift-demangle / Hopper / Ghidra / IDA
□ 字符串与 XPC 服务名、TCC 敏感 API
□ LC_LOAD_dylib 依赖与 rpath
3. 动态
□ lldb / Frida
□ fs_usage / log stream 观察
□ 网络：联合 protocol-reverse 或代理
工具链
| 工具 | 用途 |
|---|---|
| otool / nm / codesign | 系统自带 |
| Hopper / Ghidra / IDA | 反编译 |
| class-dump / dsdump | ObjC |
| Frida / lldb | 动态 |
| jtool2 | Mach-O |

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.
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.
- 3d ago First seen · 74 lines · 35 tokens per session scan A 727633a83f01
macos-reverse is a skill published in the GitHub repository zhaoxuya520/reverse-skill (34,866 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 571 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
