REA

Use REA when a claim depends on a shipped binary or package, decompilation, passive application runtime evidence, or comparison with behavior not established by available source. For ordinary analysis of a complete source repository, use normal repository tools and do not run REA readiness or provider commands.

Connect only when needed

Installing this skill supplies instructions; it does not register the REA MCP server, install analysis engines, or add tools to an already-running agent.

If REA tools are available and their registration is not known to be stale, proceed directly to the target. Do not run diagnostics or setup before every investigation. Use the connected server's actual tool list and input schemas; a skill installed from repository main may describe capabilities absent from an older npm release. Keep complete inline Evidence when that server does not advertise retained references.
