## What it is
Lumen is a self-hosted, open-source replacement for Hex-Rays' Lumina server that stores and shares IDA Pro function signatures, comments, and metadata. It is written in Rust, backed by PostgreSQL, and works with IDA Pro 7.2+ without plugins.

## Use cases
- self-host a private lumina server for ida pro
- share function signatures with my reverse engineering team
- look up functions i identified in past ida sessions
- query function comments by file or function hash
- avoid sending reverse engineering metadata to hex-rays servers

## When to choose
- you use IDA Pro 7.2+ and want private or team-shared Lumina function metadata
- you need a self-hosted alternative to Hex-Rays' Lumina cloud service
- you want an HTTP API to query stored function comments and signatures

## When to avoid
- you use disassemblers other than IDA Pro
- you don't want to run a PostgreSQL-backed server or Docker deployment
- you only need one-off static analysis without signature sharing

## Facets
- artifact type: service
- maturity: active
- function: reverse-engineering, database, http-server, search-engine
- domain: reverse-engineering, security, developer-tools, self-hosted
- platform: windows, self-hosted, rust
- tags: ida-pro, lumina, function-signatures, disassembly, collaboration, postgresql, linux, macos, docker
