npx skills add alirezarezvani/claude-skills --skill a11y-audit
Accessibility audit skill for scanning, fixing, and verifying WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA compliance across React, Next.js, Vue, Angular, Svelte, and plain HTML codebases. Use when auditing accessibility, fixing a11y violations, checking color contrast, generating compliance reports, or integrating accessibility checks into CI/CD pipelines.

WCAG 2.2 Accessibility Audit and Remediation Skill
The a11y-audit skill provides a complete accessibility audit pipeline for modern web applications. It implements a three-phase workflow -- Scan, Fix, Verify -- that identifies WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA violations, generates exact fix code per framework, and produces stakeholder-ready compliance reports.
For every violation it finds, it provides the precise before/after code fix tailored to your framework (React, Next.js, Vue, Angular, Svelte, or plain HTML).
What this skill does:
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Full WCAG 2.2 Scan | Checks all Level A and AA success criteria across your codebase |
| Framework Detection | Auto-detects React, Next.js, Vue, Angular, Svelte, or plain HTML |
| Severity Classification | Categorizes each violation as Critical, Major, or Minor |
| Fix Code Generation | Produces before/after code diffs for every issue |
| Color Contrast Checker | Validates foreground/background pairs against AA and AAA ratios |
| Compliance Reporting | Generates stakeholder reports with pass/fail summaries |
| CI/CD Integration | GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps pipeline configs |
| Keyboard Navigation Audit | Detects missing focus management and tab order issues |
| ARIA Validation | Checks for incorrect, redundant, or missing ARIA attributes |
| Severity | Definition | Example | SLA |
|---|---|---|---|
| Critical | Blocks access for entire user groups | Missing alt text, no keyboard access to navigation | Fix before release |
| Major | Significant barrier that degrades experience | Insufficient color contrast, missing form labels | Fix within current sprint |
| Minor | Usability issue that causes friction | Redundant ARIA roles, suboptimal heading hierarchy | Fix within next 2 sprints |
Phase 1: Scan -- Walk the source tree, detect framework, apply rule set.
Phase 2: Fix -- Apply framework-specific fixes for each violation.
See references/framework-a11y-patterns.md for the complete fix patterns catalog.
Phase 3: Verify -- Re-run the scanner to confirm fixes and check for regressions.
| # | WCAG | Severity | Issue |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1.1.1 | Critical | <img> missing alt attribute |
| 2 | 2.1.1 | Critical | <div onClick> not keyboard accessible |
| 3 | 1.4.3 | Major | Color #aaa on white fails contrast (2.32:1, needs 4.5:1) |
| 4 | 1.4.3 | Major | Color #999 on white fails contrast (2.85:1, needs 4.5:1) |
| 5 | 4.1.2 | Major | Interactive element missing role and accessible name |
See references/examples-by-framework.md for Vue, Angular, Next.js, and Svelte examples.
| Pitfall | Correct Approach |
|---|---|
role="button" on a <div> | Use native <button> -- includes keyboard handling for free |
tabindex="0" on everything | Only interactive elements need focus; use native elements |
aria-label on non-interactive elements | Use aria-labelledby pointing to visible text |
display: none for screen reader hiding | Use .sr-only class instead |
| Color alone to convey meaning | Add icons, text labels, or patterns alongside color |
| Placeholder as only label | Always provide a visible <label> |
outline: none without replacement | Always provide a visible focus indicator via focus-visible |
Empty alt="" on informational images | Informational images need descriptive alt text |
| Skipping heading levels (h1 -> h3) | Heading levels must be sequential |
onClick without onKeyDown | Add keyboard support or prefer native elements |
Ignoring prefers-reduced-motion | Wrap animations in @media (prefers-reduced-motion: no-preference) |
