Why flagged

Prebuilt binary downloaded from the project's own domain (shotivo.app) with sha256 checksums provided; the main concern is that this is a closed-source precompiled executable from a low-vote, recently uploaded package on a personal/small-project domain that could be swapped, but checksums are present and the host is plausibly the official project 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, …).
