Agent Instructions

Critical Rules

1. NEVER SKIP TESTS! If Ghidra is not installed, the tests MUST fail.
2. DEFAULT OUTPUT FORMAT should be human and agent readable, NOT JSON. Use --json and --pretty for JSON output.

Architecture

ghidra-cli uses a daemon-only architecture:

• All commands route through a daemon process
• Daemon manages a persistent Ghidra bridge connection
• Import/Analyze/Quick commands auto-start the daemon
• One daemon per project
