    "Each input directory needs a single-function .c file, the target .o, a project-specific compile script and a settings .toml; import.py can generate them for configured Make or Ninja projects. The README lists MIPS (IDO, possibly GCC), PowerPC and ARM32 assembly.",
    "Requires Python 3 and toml; pynacl and Levenshtein are optional. permuter@home needs access granted by an existing network member, supports a limited compiler list and does not run on native Windows; workers also need Docker.",
    "A zero score means the scored disassembly matches. The README warns that random passes often find nonsensical changes, so a human must still choose readable, non-overfitted code; the tool does not recover names, types or semantics.",

    "每个输入目录需要只含一个函数的 .c 文件、待匹配的 .o 目标文件、项目专用的编译脚本和设置 .toml；已配置好的 Make 或 Ninja 项目可用 import.py 自动生成。README 列出的支持范围为 MIPS（IDO，GCC 可能可用）、PowerPC 和 ARM32 汇编。",
    "需要 Python 3 和 toml；pynacl 与 Levenshtein 为可选依赖。permuter@home 需由已加入网络的成员授权，只支持有限的编译器，不能在原生 Windows 上运行；工作节点还需要 Docker。",
    "得分为零只表示评分所用的反汇编一致。README 提醒随机改写常会找到不合常理的变化，仍需由人挑选可读、未过拟合的写法；工具不会恢复名称、类型或语义。",
