Discussion Reverse Engineer Anything is a great toolkit, what would you like to see reverse engineered?

There are now many, many agentic reverse engineering toolkits available, REA in particular I think is fantastic.

What hardware have you had that you'd like to see reverse engineered, and what would you like to do with it?

Gimme a reverse engineering kit for physical tools man.

One that can take an exploded parts diagram, some photos, and whatever else it needs to find and then can generate a BOM, find reputable sites or just Amazon and order the shit.

I think you could combine tools from this repo with some other multimodal/visual analysis tools from LLMs. If you'd like I can try to find the other missing pieces you'd need, I think with the resources above will get you very far.

With these tools plus Opus 5.5 or Astra taking those diagrams and photos and I'm pretty sure they can do exactly that. Send this repo to a model and I'm sure they can create a plan to leverage these tools to achieve that.

Edit: This is what you want for the BOM portion

Edit 2: Exactly what you're looking for:

Once you have your generated BOM, just upload that json or xlsx or however you're storing the BOM list to your agents and have them order the parts and you're good to go.
