Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Binary Analysis Patterns Comprehensive patterns and techniques for analyzing compiled binaries, understanding assembly code, and reconstructing program logic. ## Use this skill when - Working on binary analysis patterns tasks or workflows - Needing guidance, best practices, or checklists for binary analysis patterns ## Do not use this skill when - The task is unrelated to binary analysis patterns - You need a different domain or tool outside this scope ## Instructions - Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs. - Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes. - Provide actionable steps and verification. - If detailed examples are required, open `resources/implementation-playbook.md`. ## Disassembly Fundamentals ### x86-64 Instruction Patterns #### Function Prologue/Epilogue ```asm ; Standard prologue push rbp ; Save base pointer mov rbp, rsp ; Set up stack frame sub rsp, 0x20 ; Allocate local variables ; Leaf function (no calls) ; May skip frame pointer setup sub rsp, 0x18 ; Just allocate locals ; Standard epilogue mov rsp, rbp ; Restore stack pointer pop rbp ; Restore base pointer ret ; Leave instruction (equivalent) leave ; mov rsp, rbp; pop rbp ret ``` #### Callin

What does the binary-analysis-patterns skill do?
Comprehensive patterns and techniques for analyzing compiled binaries, understanding assembly code, and reconstructing program logic.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill binary-analysis-patterns --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
