Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt .deb binary from a non-whitelisted host (installers.lmstudio.ai), which is not a standard code hosting platform, 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, …).
