I'm very interested in this, I do a lot of protocol debugging. Kaitai looks very neat - is that the most popular format for this kind of thing, or are there other popular options I should look at too?
I recently wanted to reverse engineer some Websocket packets for a game I was playing.
I used BurpSuite as a proxy to bypass the SSL encryption. It also has a pretty handy tool that will monitor all websocket traffic.
After that I used ImHex, pretty much exactly like in that blog to reverse engineer the websocket packets. The DSL is a little finicky but once you wrap your head around it, it`s very nice and powerful.
