Agents are sort of irrelevant to this discussion, no?
Like, it's assuredly harder for an agent than having access to the code, if only because there's a theoratical opportunity to misunderstand the decompile.
Alternatively, it's assuredly easier for an agent because given execution time approaches infinity, they can try all possible interpretations.
Agents meaning an AI iteratively trying different things to try to decompile the code. Presumably in some kind of guess and check loop. I don’t expect a typical LLM to be good at this on its first attempt. But I bet Cursor could make a good stab at it with the right prompt.
