LOW

Why flagged The flagged npm install and npx execution are part of building the project from its own source code fetched from GitHub; no external or untrusted remote packages are installed, and the build process uses declared dependencies from the project's official repository.

Triggered rules

LOW AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The flagged npm install and npx execution are part of building the project from its own source code fetched from GitHub; no external or untrusted remote packages are installed, and the build process uses declared dependencies from the project's official repository.

2 higher static findings superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)

MEDIUM npm/yarn/pnpm install of an undeclared external package npm_install_external

Runs `npm/yarn/pnpm install <package>` for a package not in source=(), pulling unpinned, unreviewed code at build time. Severity downgraded: the package declares/looks like a Node.js consumer, where build-time installs are expected.

PKGBUILD:34 npm install --cpu="${!CARCH}" --omit dev --omit optional --omit peer --no-bin-links

MEDIUM npx/bunx/deno executes a remote package remote_code_tool

`npx`/`bunx`/`pnpm dlx`/`deno run <url>` downloads AND runs a remote package at build time — the moral equivalent of piping a download into a shell. Severity downgraded: Node.js consumer context.
