crystal-launcher
The package downloads a JAR file and assets from the project's own domain, which is plausibly the official source; building and installing the project's own code from its official host is normal AUR packaging, even if the host is not on a standard whitelist.
Triggered rules
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 package downloads a JAR file and assets from the project's own domain, which is plausibly the official source; building and installing the project's own code from its official host is normal AUR packaging, even if the host is not on a standard whitelist.

# Current reverse engineering for figuring out the jar:
# 1. curl the current script:
# https://bit.ly/cl4lx
# ->
# https://launcher.crystal-launcher.net/linux/install.sh
# Here we can find the launcher icon.
# 2. Fetch the launcher.tar.xz mentioned there
# 3. The 'launcher' binary inside is a PyInstaller package.
# It can be unpacked via:
# https://github.com/extremecoders-re/pyinstxtractor
# There is the web version here:
# https://pyinstxtractor-web.netlify.app/
# 4. Unpack the .zip file, it has a bunch of .pyc files.
# You can decompile it via pycdc.
# Focus on the Crystal*.pyc.
# The main manifest is available here:
# https://launcher.crystal-launcher.net/bootstrapNX/data/bootstrapManifest.json
# It also stores the Java version to use
# 5. We have the proper JAR and command line path for the launcher.
