Re Library

A context7-style knowledge base for Reverse Engineering. Curated markdown entries on techniques, anti-analysis bypass, mobile internals, packers, and the tools that pull them apart. Read it on the web, or wire it into Claude / Cursor / any MCP client.

The site is live at https://heretek-ai.github.io/RE-Library/.

What's in it

Eight categories, ~50 entries (growing):

Category	What it covers
android	APK structure, smali, native libs, Frida on Android, repackaging, SSL pinning, root detection
ios	IPA structure, ObjC runtime, Swift demangling, jailbreak detection, Frida on iOS, Objection
anti-analysis	Anti-debug, anti-VM, anti-sandbox, anti-Frida, anti-dumper, code integrity, detection patterns
drm	CDM architecture, security levels, key ladders, proxy/relay, attestation (no system names)
packers	UPX, Themida, VMProtect, OLLVM, custom packers
tools	Ghidra, IDA, Binary Ninja, Frida, Xposed, Magisk, Hopper, radare2
native	PE, ELF, Mach-O, dynamic analysis, syscalls, hooking
web-hybrid	Electron, WebAssembly, browser extensions, hybrid frameworks, Cordova

The drm/ category intentionally doesn't name any specific DRM system. The content describes architectures, security models, and protocol shapes; readers who know the space will recognise which system is being described. See CONTRIBUTING.md for the full content policy.

Use it from an MCP client

The MCP server is a Python package (re-library-mcp) that exposes the same content over the Model Context Protocol. Install and configure:

pip install re-library-mcp

Add to your MCP client config (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "re-library": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "re_library_mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Then ask your assistant things like:

• "What are the main ways to bypass SSL pinning on Android?"
• "Show me anti-debug techniques for native code on Linux."
• "List the categories and how many entries each has."

The server fetches the latest content from this repo on startup and returns search results, full entry text, and category summaries.

Run the site locally

npm install
npm run dev
# → http://localhost:4321/RE-Library/

Build the static site + Pagefind index:

npm run build
# → dist/  (deploy dist/ to any static host)

Repository layout

content/        single source of truth — every entry is a .md file
src/            Astro site (content collections, pages, styles)
public/         static assets (favicon, etc.)
mcp-server/     Python MCP server (publishable to PyPI as `re-library-mcp`)
.github/        CI + GitHub Pages deploy
