Why flagged

The package downloads a source tarball from a personal domain not on the whitelist, but it builds and installs the project's own binaries and documentation, which is normal AUR packaging behavior; the worst case of a swapped source is limited to code execution at build/install time, but the host plausibly belongs to the project maintainer.

Triggered rules

Low AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The package downloads a source tarball from a personal domain not on the whitelist, but it builds and installs the project's own binaries and documentation, which is normal AUR packaging behavior; the worst case of a swapped source is limited to code execution at build/install time, but the host plausibly belongs to the project maintainer.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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