Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt AppImage from desktop.clickup.com, a non-whitelisted host, which is an unverifiable executable and represents a supply-chain risk if the domain were compromised.

Triggered rules

Medium source=() URL on a non-standard host source_untrusted_domain

One or more source=() URLs point to a host outside the trusted allowlist (github.com, gitlab.com, codeberg.org, pypi.org, …).
