Why flagged

Downloads a prebuilt .deb from download.livechesscloud.com, which is plausibly the official DGT/LiveChess vendor domain matching the declared project URL (livechesscloud.com); checksum is provided, so the binary is verifiable. The only concern is that it is a prebuilt binary from a non-whitelisted host, but the host appears to be the project's own official download infrastructure.

Triggered rules

Low AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 70%): Downloads a prebuilt .deb from download.livechesscloud.com, which is plausibly the official DGT/LiveChess vendor domain matching the declared project URL (livechesscloud.com); checksum is provided, so the binary is verifiable. The only concern is that it is a prebuilt binary from a non-whitelisted host, but the host appears to be the project's own official download infrastructure.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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