Why flagged

Prebuilt binary from a Google Cloud Storage bucket associated with the project's own domain (zerocalculators.com), with a pinned sha256 checksum; the main concern is that GCS buckets are not official release infrastructure but the checksum mitigates silent swapping, making this low-risk rather than medium.

Triggered rules

Low Few votes, recently uploaded zero_votes_recent

Uploaded within the last 14 days with 2 or fewer community votes — little peer review so far.

Low AI review downgraded a static finding llm_review

The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 70%): Prebuilt binary from a Google Cloud Storage bucket associated with the project's own domain (zerocalculators.com), with a pinned sha256 checksum; the main concern is that GCS buckets are not official release infrastructure but the checksum mitigates silent swapping, making this low-risk rather than medium.

1 higher static finding superseded - not the current verdict (shown for transparency)

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, …).
