The only open-source tool for deobfuscating in a meaningful way is your head.

Reverse engineering is hard, and requires patience, fortitude, caffeine, ESP, and Star Trek.

As far I know, there is no such tool. I can't envisage it being possible, as there is no way for a deobfuscation tool to know what meaningful names to give to methods and classes.

And that is why people obfuscate.
