🛡️ Security Note / VirusTotal False Positive
If you scan the raw installation URL on VirusTotal, you might see a 1/95 detection by heuristic engines like Chong Lua Dao. This is a known false positive. Because this script uses the standard
curl | bashinstallation pattern and downloads legitimate binaries (likejqfrom its official GitHub release), overly aggressive scanners flag the behavior. The script is 100% open source and safe to review. You can read more about this in Issue #162.
