For
Electron developers tracing unfamiliar app behavior
Worth noticing
Its example task asks users to cite the IPC channel and file-writing code, then list unknowns and a small verification step.

Field notes

The sample investigation traces CSV export and asks for the entry point, IPC channel, and file-writing code, with unknowns and a small verification step called out. Setup is documented through `npx rea-agents@latest setup`; the page specifies supported Node versions and tells users to review and approve the proposed agent configuration. Native-binary analysis requires a local tool such as Ghidra, Hopper, or IDA.
