# X_SOURCE_HEADER_PIN_STALE

## Means

a source-header pin is above the number of violations the tree now holds

## Typical cause

the file was repaired and the pin was not lowered, so the slack would let a new violation in

## Fix

delete or lower the row for the file the cause names in `scripts/lib/source-header-pins.ts`, then `bun run scripts/source-headers.ts --json`
