A developer has published an account of letting AI agents decompile a first-person shooter, reporting the effort consumed roughly 500 billion tokens. The write-up details what automated agents managed to recover from the game's compiled code and where they fell short. The project is drawing attention among programmers interested in reverse engineering and the practical limits of AI-assisted code analysis.

Why now: It offers a rare, concrete data point on how capable AI agents are at real reverse-engineering work.
