itchio-bin
Downloads a prebuilt binary from broth.itch.zone, which is itch.io's own official distribution infrastructure (used by the itch.io butler/broth toolchain), with a sha256 checksum provided; this is the project's own release channel, not an unrelated third-party host, so the risk is low despite the non-whitelisted domain.
Triggered rules
