LOW
View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The package downloads a prebuilt butler binary from itch.zone, a non-whitelisted but project-related host; however, it is used as a bundled tool and not executed directly in a risky context, and the rest of the build uses verifiable source from GitHub, making the overall risk low.

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 prebuilt butler binary from itch.zone, a non-whitelisted but project-related host; however, it is used as a bundled tool and not executed directly in a risky context, and the rest of the build uses verifiable source from GitHub, making the overall risk low.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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