Why flagged

The npx command runs electron-builder to package the application from the project's own source code, which is downloaded from the project's official GitHub repository; this is a standard build step for Electron apps and does not execute arbitrary remote code.

Low AI review llm_review

An AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-2507) reviewed this and agrees it is LOW (confidence 95%): The npx command runs electron-builder to package the application from the project's own source code, which is downloaded from the project's official GitHub repository; this is a standard build step for Electron apps and does not execute arbitrary remote code.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)

Medium npx/bunx/deno executes a remote package remote_code_tool

`npx`/`bunx`/`pnpm dlx`/`deno run <url>` downloads AND runs a remote package at build time — the moral equivalent of piping a download into a shell. Severity downgraded: Node.js consumer context.
