•Cybersecurity analysts rely on reverse engineering to understand suspicious software. •Ghidra can surface decompiled code, but it does not fully explain function purpose, behavioral meaning, or analyst priority. •When symbols are stripped and context is weak, analysts must still reconstruct intent manually from low-level output. •That process is Time-consuming , complex and , operationally costly

Reverse engineering plays a vital role in cybersecurity by helping analysts examine unknown binaries, investigate malware, identify vulnerabilities, and better protect sensitive systems. However, once a program is compiled and stripped, the meaningful names that describe its behavior are lost, leaving behind generic function labels like FUN_00401a30. Analysts must then manually interpret decompiled code, trace call chains, and infer program behavior function by function, which is slow and mentally demanding on large binaries. To address this challenge, this project introduces A.I.R.E., a local Ghidra extension that extracts contextual evidence from stripped functions and uses a locally hosted language model to …
