Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt binary from a non-standard host (dl-agent.pstmn.io) which is not on the standard whitelist, posing a supply-chain risk if the host is compromised or the download is tampered with, though it is plausibly an official Postman domain.

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, …).
