Why flagged

The package downloads prebuilt binaries from a non-standard host (native.jam.dev), which is not on the standard whitelist; while the host appears project-related, the binaries are unverifiable executables, creating a supply-chain risk if the domain were compromised.

Triggered rules

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, …).
