Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt binary from the official Hytale launcher domain (launcher.hytale.com), which is plausibly the project's own infrastructure; while the host is not on a standard whitelist, the source is verifiable via checksum and the binary is installed in a self-updating configuration, which is expected behavior for this application.

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 prebuilt binary from the official Hytale launcher domain (launcher.hytale.com), which is plausibly the project's own infrastructure; while the host is not on a standard whitelist, the source is verifiable via checksum and the binary is installed in a self-updating configuration, which is expected behavior for this application.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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