uniread
The npm install is from a local source file (v$pkgver.tar.gz) which is downloaded from the project's GitHub repository and verified via sha256sum; this is a standard build pattern for Node.js packages on Arch, not an external undeclared package install.
Triggered rules
llm_review
The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The npm install is from a local source file (v$pkgver.tar.gz) which is downloaded from the project's GitHub repository and verified via sha256sum; this is a standard build pattern for Node.js packages on Arch, not an external undeclared package install.
1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)
npm_install_external
Runs `npm/yarn/pnpm install <package>` for a package not in source=(), pulling unpinned, unreviewed code at build time. Severity downgraded: the package declares/looks like a Node.js consumer, where build-time installs are expected.
