Why flagged

The package downloads a source archive from a non-whitelisted host (matix.li), but it is a direct, static link to what appears to be the game's binary distribution; the file is checksum-verified, and the package installs only local data and a wrapper script, with no evidence of remote code execution or obfuscation.

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 package downloads a source archive from a non-whitelisted host (matix.li), but it is a direct, static link to what appears to be the game's binary distribution; the file is checksum-verified, and the package installs only local data and a wrapper script, with no evidence of remote code execution or obfuscation.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
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, …).
