Why flagged

Builds from source via a tagged git release on what appears to be the project's own self-hosted git instance (git.purrr.chat matching the project URL purrr.chat); SKIP'd checksum on a git source is normal AUR practice, and no prebuilt binaries or suspicious remote execution are involved — the only concern is the low-vote/new-package status and an unverifiable personal git host.

Triggered rules

Low AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 70%): Builds from source via a tagged git release on what appears to be the project's own self-hosted git instance (git.purrr.chat matching the project URL purrr.chat); SKIP'd checksum on a git source is normal AUR practice, and no prebuilt binaries or suspicious remote execution are involved — the only concern is the low-vote/new-package status and an unverifiable personal git host.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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