Why flagged The package downloads a source tarball from a non-whitelisted but plausibly official domain (api.gitkraken.dev) used by the project; it builds and installs the official application without executing untrusted remote code or exfiltrating 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-2507) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The package downloads a source tarball from a non-whitelisted but plausibly official domain (api.gitkraken.dev) used by the project; it builds and installs the official application without executing untrusted remote code or exfiltrating 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1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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, …).
