  "description_en": "Uses a composite Quantitative Readability Score (QRS) to guide agents refining decompiled C. Lexical familiarity, structural simplicity and coding idioms are combined with a binary-structure similarity gate. Experiments compare refinement with and without shell access on 210 simple C binaries.",
