The plugin is a read-only game library aggregator and launcher UI. It parses local launcher metadata, validates identifiers before constructing launch commands, and executes programs via argv arrays without a shell. The only deterministic finding is a git clone command in the README, which is documentation and not part of the plugin's executable code.

How this check works

This review combines the deterministic scan (the rule-based results above) with an independent look at the plugin's code by a language model. The model reads a trimmed sample of the repository's files, the manifest, and the README, then gives a plain-language risk level and a recommendation: install (no notable danger), review (look closer first), or avoid (clearly dangerous).

It runs on the same analyzed commit as the deterministic scan and is strictly advisory — it is not a security guarantee and never blocks a plugin by itself. A human moderator still reviews plugins before they are listed.
