ida-headless-mcp and headless-ida

Both tools aim to automate IDA Pro binary analysis without a GUI, but one leverages the Model Context Protocol while the other uses `idalib` directly, making them **competitors** offering different underlying approaches to headless IDA Pro automation.

Headless IDA Pro binary analysis via Model Context Protocol

This project provides a way to automate and scale binary analysis using IDA Pro. It takes raw binary files, processes them in the background, and outputs structured analysis results like decompiled functions and symbols. This is for reverse engineers, security researchers, and malware analysts who need to programmatically interact with IDA Pro for large-scale or integrated workflows, rather than using its graphical interface directly.
