## TL;DR

danger-swift ran SwiftLint on the PR and a violation failed the build. Fix the flagged style issue in code, or adjust the SwiftLint rule config if the team agrees the rule is wrong.

## Error

```text
Danger: SwiftLint violation  -  line_length: Line should be 120 characters or less (currently 148).
```

## Steps

1. Read the Danger comment: it quotes the SwiftLint rule and location. Expected: you know the rule and the line.
2. Fix the violation: wrap the line, or address the specific rule (force_cast, etc.). Expected: `swiftlint` is clean on the file.
3. If the rule is wrong for the project, change `.swiftlint.yml` (disable or reconfigure the rule). Expected: the config change is itself reviewed.
4. Push and wait for the Danger run. Expected: no SwiftLint violations reported.

## When to use

- danger-swift fails the PR with SwiftLint violations.
- The repo uses danger-swift with the SwiftLint plugin.

## When not to use

- A different Danger plugin fails (e.g. changelog check)  -  fix that plugin's issue.
- SwiftLint fails outside Danger; run it directly for faster iteration.

## Tool compatibility

- danger-swift with SwiftLint plugin.
- Swift 5+, Xcode.

## Variant phrasings

### Violation only in test targets

Scope the rule differently for tests in the SwiftLint config.

### Danger reports stale violations

Danger comments per-commit; check the latest run, not an old comment.

## Why it happens

danger-swift surfaces SwiftLint findings as PR comments and can fail the build, so style violations block merging the same way test failures do. The fix is either cleaner code or a deliberate config change.

## Edge cases

- Disabling a rule repo-wide to fix one PR weakens the gate for everyone  -  prefer fixing the code.
- Run `swiftlint --fix` locally for autocorrectable violations before pushing.
