REA reverse-engineering agent promo made with Opus 5.5 and Claude Motion
Introduces REA, a reverse-engineering agent for Claude Code or Codex, with a pixelated Pac-Man-style promo video made using Opus 5.5 and Claude Motion.
Your coding agent can take apps apart like a game level 🤯 REA stands for 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗔𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴. Add it to Claude Code or Codex, point it at a feature, and let it investigate how it works. The pixelated, Pac-Man-style video below was made with Opus 5.5 using Claude Motion 👾 A few things you can ask REA: - How does this app search as I type? - How does copied text keep its formatting? - How does this game create its bullet patterns? - What is our old internal tool actually doing? It digs through the software, shows the evidence, and helps you plan your own implementation. Start with your own software, open-source projects, or apps whose terms allow reverse engineering. To set it up, run: ```bash npx rea-agents setup ``` Pick your agent, restart it, then paste: “Use REA to investigate a feature I want to understand. Ask me which app and feature, and confirm I’m allowed to analyze it. Check for any missing tools before starting. Show evidence for your findings, explain them in plain English, then propose a plan for building my own version without copying the original code. Wait for my approval before writing it.”
