treecomp
The package downloads source and icon files from the author's personal website, which is not on a standard host whitelist, but the content consists of a prebuilt Windows executable meant to be run under Wine and a GIF icon; the worst case of a swapped source would be code execution via the unverifiable binary, but this is the project's official distribution point and the package otherwise follows standard AUR practices for a freeware tool.

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The package downloads source and icon files from the author's personal website, which is not on a standard host whitelist, but the content consists of a prebuilt Windows executable meant to be run under Wine and a GIF icon; the worst case of a swapped source would be code execution via the unverifiable binary, but this is the project's official distribution point and the package otherwise follows standard AUR practices for a freeware tool.
