Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt AppImage executable from a non-whitelisted host (cdn.chillicream.com), which presents a supply-chain risk if the host is compromised or the source is swapped, though it is plausibly the official vendor's infrastructure.

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, …).
