LOW
View on AUR ↗
Why flagged The flagged npx and cargo commands are used to install build tools (trunk, tauri-cli, tailwindcss) required for compiling the project from its own source; this is normal for AUR packages building from upstream, and all sources are verifiable with checksums.

Triggered rules

LOW AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

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 flagged npx and cargo commands are used to install build tools (trunk, tauri-cli, tailwindcss) required for compiling the project from its own source; this is normal for AUR packages building from upstream, and all sources are verifiable with checksums.

2 higher static findings superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)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.

  • PKGBUILD:28 npx tailwindcss -i ./css/input.css -o ./css/output.css --minify
MEDIUM External install via pipx/uv/poetry/cargo/go/gem alt_pkg_manager_install

A non-pip/npm package manager (pipx, uv, poetry, cargo install, go install, gem, conda…) fetches and builds an external package at build time, outside source=() and makepkg's checksums.

  • PKGBUILD:23 cargo install trunk
  • PKGBUILD:24 cargo install tauri-cli
