External services
This plugin can contact external services in three cases.
- Public checksum verification
org.
org if needed. These requests send only the package type, slug, and version needed for checksum verification.
org checksum mismatch, the plugin may request the matching reference file through FirePhage so it can show a file comparison or restore the official file you selected. This happens only after a user action and is not part of normal background scanning.
org reference files; the plugin does not execute arbitrary remote code.
