Yeah, it's token intensive but worth it. I built a very dumb example harness which used IDA via MCP and analyzed/renamed/commented all ~67k functions in a binary, using Claude Haiku for about $150. A local model could've accomplished it for much less/free. The knowledge base it outputs and the marked up IDA db are super valuable.
I did something similar using ghidramcp for digging around this keyboard firmware, repo contains the ghidra project, linux driver and even patches to the original stock fw. https://github.com/echtzeit-solutions/monsgeek-akko-linux
