The full story

A developer used Claude Code to turn classic Macintosh ROM listings into a commented source tree that can be assembled with modern tools.

The forum post describes expanding the work across the Macintosh 128K, 512K, Plus and SE and reports byte-identical reconstructed ROMs. It links to the reverse-engineering project rather than describing a newly designed replacement ROM.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.
