## What it is
Lensm is a GUI tool for viewing Go assembly alongside source code, with support for C/C++/Rust binaries via symbol tables and DWARF debug info. It also runs as an MCP server exposing tools for listing functions and reading assembly, source, and comments.

## Use cases
- view Go assembly next to source code
- inspect compiled assembly of a binary
- browse assembly of C or C++ programs with debug info
- demangle C++ and Rust symbols
- annotate functions with comments via MCP server
- watch and reload binary during development

## When to choose
- you need to understand what the Go compiler generates for your code
- you want a GUI to navigate assembly with source context
- you need an MCP server to expose binary assembly to AI agents

## When to avoid
- you only need command-line disassembly without a GUI
- you need to disassemble stripped binaries without symbol tables or DWARF
- you need a full decompiler or reverse-engineering suite

## Facets
