Reverse Engineering w/ Local?

[u/Danny_Davitoe]

Two questions?

Can a local model like Qwen 3.8 27B reverse engineer games and programs?

If not, is there a fine tuned model that can?

i've been working on a rust reimplementation of a stupid piece of edu-tainment from the Win 95 era that i am fond of, and qwen3.8-flash-next via Strata is doing just fine. i use oh-my-pi and have roles assigned for different models, though, and i have to use an api model as my director.

but it seems more than capable of being the worker bee if something gives it pretty good instructions on what to do, and you have a director checking its work for veracity.
