Why flagged

A prebuilt AppImage binary is downloaded from chiselapp.com (a personal/niche Fossil SCM hosting service), which is not the project's own official release infrastructure and could be silently swapped; however, the checksum is present and the URL is plausibly the project's own repository, keeping this at medium rather than high.

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, …).
