What does "Stale" mean on an objective?
No check-in answer and no key result update for two check-in intervals, at least 14 days. Answer the check-in or move a key result to clear it.
An in-progress objective goes Stale after two check-in intervals with no check-in answer and no key result update, and never sooner than 14 days. Hover the badge to see the window.
Any real update clears it: answer the check-in card or change a key result value. The owner also receives an extra check-in card for a stale objective.
