Why flagged

The package builds from the project's own GitHub source; the only non-standard download is a font file (Lucide.ttf) from unpkg.com with a pinned SHA-256 checksum, which is pure data never executed, so the risk is minimal even though unpkg is not a whitelisted host.

Triggered rules

Low Few votes, recently uploaded zero_votes_recent

Uploaded within the last 14 days with 2 or fewer community votes — little peer review so far.

Low AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 85%): The package builds from the project's own GitHub source; the only non-standard download is a font file (Lucide.ttf) from unpkg.com with a pinned SHA-256 checksum, which is pure data never executed, so the risk is minimal even though unpkg is not a whitelisted host.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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