What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you identify and fix website accessibility problems against WCAG 2.2 so users with disabilities can navigate content reliably and your organization can reduce compliance risk.

Core Features & Use Cases

• WCAG 2.2 audit checklist by POUR and success criteria: Covers Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, and Robust with practical checks (e.g., text alternatives, keyboard access, focus visibility, language attributes, status messages).
• Actionable remediation patterns: Provides before/after examples for common failures such as missing form labels, insufficient contrast, and keyboard-inaccessible custom widgets.
• Automated testing workflows and tool guidance: Includes axe-core integration and example CLI approaches (axe, pa11y, Lighthouse) to find issues at scale while still requiring manual verification.
• Use case fit: Ideal when auditing websites, preparing VPAT-like documentation, fixing known WCAG violations, and standardizing accessible design patterns across a component library.
