REA, which gives AI agents built-in software inspectors and access to native analysis tools, had roughly 350,000 GitHub stars as of October 20, 2026. The repository supports reverse engineering, examining software without its original source code. Its static JavaScript and .NET inspectors need no native analysis engine. Stars measure attention, with no corresponding active-user count.

Release 6.7.0, published October 18, 2026 UTC, includes the changes from 6.6.0, which was tagged but never published to npm, plus a setup configuration fix. The README describes main and may differ from the released package. For developers investigating unfamiliar software, the practical question is how closely an agent's explanation follows the evidence returned by its tools.
