Reverse-engineering skill router is GitHub's fastest-rising repo

zhaoxuya520/reverse-skill posted the fastest star growth of any repo trending on GitHub on August 4, per GitHub. It added 2,446 stars in a single day, reaching 17,131 total and 2,376 forks.

That growth matters because the repo is a PowerShell tool that automates reverse-engineering and pentesting workflows. It routes a task to the right skill and installs whatever toolchain that skill needs without asking. It also wires into four coding assistants: Claude Code, Kiro, Cursor and Cline. A security tool spreading this fast, with this much automation, is pulling more stars than most agent frameworks on GitHub.

The repo also keeps a knowledge base that updates itself as new skills get added. So the toolchain it installs can change from one run to the next.

Commits dated August 3 and 4, per the repo's commit log, registered a new PentestSwarm MCP server. The same window patched a shell-injection hole in the repo's own auto-merge workflow, the process that ships its updates to everyone pulling from it.

The speed pushing this repo up GitHub's trending page is the same speed that let a shell-injection bug into its own auto-merge workflow. Security-skills tooling is shipping AI routing, on-demand toolchains and self-updating knowledge bases faster than its own CI catches what goes out. It caught this one fast, in the same window it hit the front page. Anyone pulling the router into a build should check which commit they're on relative to August 3-4.
