criticalRemote script piped into a shellA shell script downloads remote content and executes it directly (e.g. `curl … | bash`). The payload is never stored or reviewable and can change server-side — a classic malware/backdoor install pattern.server/start_server.sh

    if curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh; then
        echo -e "${GREEN}uv installation completed${NC}"

Scores are heuristics. A “safe” verdict means no known-malicious patterns were found — clever malware can look boring. Wrong verdict? Flag it above; confirmed false positives become regression tests.
