This only works for something noninteractive that always executes the same code (unless I'm misunderstanding the LLM's description of what it did)

Ah yeah true, no I don't think you're misunderstanding. Actually sorry I misspoke - what I've seen in the game re/decomp projects is that the binary gets turned into a direct C implementation of the instruction stream, and it's basically a sort of emulation with CPU/memory state and emulation of whatever hardware it might need to talk to.
