The plugin makes expected network calls to fetch satellite orbital data, map tiles, geolocation, and geocoding services. No malicious behavior, obfuscation, or destructive commands were found. The external host flagged by the scan is a standard IP geolocation service used for automatic location detection.

  • Network calls to external services (CelesTrak, CARTO/OpenStreetMap, Open-Meteo, GeoJS) are required for functionality and are documented.
  • The locate script reads a local weather settings file and uses IP geolocation as fallback, which may share approximate location with third-party services.
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.

AI advisory only — automated analysis, not a security guarantee.

Configure

omarchy bar set ldng.satellite-radar minimumElevation 10
omarchy bar set ldng.satellite-radar performanceMode High

Network and privacy

  • CelesTrak: orbital elements
  • CARTO/OpenStreetMap: map tiles
  • Open-Meteo: city search
  • GeoJS: fallback IP-based location

TLE data is cached in ~/.cache/omarchy-satellite-radar for two hours. Failed requests back off for 15 minutes. Set a location manually to avoid the GeoJS fallback.

Positions are predictions from TLE data, not live GPS telemetry. Do not use this plugin for navigation or collision avoidance.

Remove

omarchy plugin remove ldng.satellite-radar
