## What it is
Manalyze is a static analyzer for PE (Windows executable) files written in C++. It performs primary malware assessment by parsing PE structures, detecting packers, applying ClamAV signatures, and flagging suspicious indicators via a plugin architecture.

## Use cases
- analyze a suspicious exe for malware indicators
- detect packed or obfuscated PE executables
- check malicious import combinations in a binary
- scan PE files with ClamAV signatures offline
- submit file hashes to VirusTotal from the CLI
- verify authenticode signatures of executables
- find cryptographic constants in a binary

## When to choose
- you need fast, local static triage of Windows PE files
- you want scriptable malware triage without running the sample
- you need a plugin-extensible PE parser on Linux or Windows

## When to avoid
- you need dynamic/behavioral analysis or sandbox detonation
- you analyze non-PE formats like ELF or Mach-O
- you need a GUI-based reverse engineering suite like IDA
