reverse-eng-ghidra

Reverse engineer with Ghidra (GUI, headless, or ghidra-mcp) — decompile, cross-references, scripting — when there's no IDA license, for batch/CI decompilation, or as a free second opinion. Load for "decompile without IDA", bulk analysis of many samples, analyzeHeadless, Ghidra scripts (Jython/PyGhidra), or patch diffing with ghidriff. Signals: an ELF/PE needing a decompiler, "use Ghidra", headless automation, no commercial RE license.

# Ghidra reverse engineering

## When it applies
You need decompiler-grade analysis of an in-scope binary (`scope.txt` / client-owned / your own
sample — `tradecraft-scope-roe`) and there's no IDA license, or you need to process many samples in
batch or CI. Also the right call when a conclusion from `reverse-eng-ida` or `reverse-eng-radare2`
deserves an independent cross-check with a different decompiler.

## Why it works
Ghidra's P-code lifter gives one decompiler across dozens of architectures (x86/ARM/MIPS/PPC and
obscure firmware targets IDA may not load well), and headless mode turns the whole
import → analyze → decompile pipeline into a scriptable batch step — so bulk triage costs the same as
single-file analysis.
