Connector full
💡 recommendationcompleteness/connector-full
What it looks like
J2 (JST-XH 6) is full — all 6 pins wired, no spare. If a signal is left unconnected elsewhere, you've likely run out of pins here; size up the connector.
What it checks
Every pin of a connector is wired — zero spares.
Why it matters
A full connector at design time means no room for the signal you forgot, the ground you'll want for signal integrity, or the test line that would have saved a board spin.
How to fix it
Size up one position if the change is cheap now. If the pinout is fixed by a mating cable, that's a fine reason to ignore this.
When it's intended
Mating an existing cable or standard pinout? Full is correct — this is a recommendation for exactly that reason. In the editor, mark any error or warning intended with a note — it mutes the finding without hiding it, and the note stays with the design.
