Why flagged

The package downloads a prebuilt binary from the official Postman distribution domain (dl.pstmn.io), which is a legitimate source; despite the static analyzer flag for a non-whitelisted host, the download is verifiable via checksum and the domain is owned by Postman, making it a standard and safe practice for distributing their official binaries.
