Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt AppImage from a non-standard host (installers.lmstudio.ai), which is not on common trust whitelists, posing a supply-chain risk if the host is compromised or the download is intercepted.

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, …).
