LOW
View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The package downloads source code and documentation from the project's official domain, which is not on the whitelist but is plausibly legitimate; building from own-source is normal AUR practice and the additional files are non-executable data.

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 source code and documentation from the project's official domain, which is not on the whitelist but is plausibly legitimate; building from own-source is normal AUR practice and the additional files are non-executable data.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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