ClearSecLabs is bringing a workshop to REcon 2026 in Montreal: Agentic Reverse Engineering: Building Custom AI Skills with Coding Agents, led by our principal researcher John McIntosh.

We're coming back to REcon. Last year's session focused on MCP-based Ghidra integration, where MCP gave coding agents tool access. This time, Agent Skills give them structured, reusable workflows. We're going to build one end to end.

What I Keep Hearing​

Lately, the same conversation keeps coming up with colleagues, students, and fellow researchers. The shape of it is roughly:

I've started reading and experimenting with AI, and honestly, it's really good. In some areas it's already faster than me. The more I use it, the less I can see what work will be left for us in five years.

The feeling is real, and I've heard it from senior reverse engineers with fifteen years on the keyboard and from people on their first run through Ghidra. The more capable the tools get in your hands, the more your relevance feels uncertain. That's a hard place to operate from.

Here's the part worth holding onto: we've been in this place before. The path out of the worry has been the same every time. Engage with the new tool early. Stay ahead of it by working with it.
