castling queenside

When analyzing this recent game, an option given by the engine was for the white king to castle queenside. This seems odd as the rook on A1 is being attacked. I realize that black's bishop on D4 is not cutting through the path between white's king and rook.

If you're asking whether or not it's legal, it is. The rook is irrelevant; as long as the king doesn't pass through or land on an attacked square it's fine.
