frontend-a11y

frontend-a11y is a skill for Claude Code from bestdeejay-design/agent-skills. It costs 237 tokens per session (3,951 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A detailed accessibility audit for websites and static HTML, covering how pages work for people using keyboards, screen readers, zoom, or other assistive technology. It checks markup, ARIA instructions, contrast, focus behaviour, forms, tables, media, and more.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for offline code checks, browser-based axe-core testing, WCAG reviews, keyboard and focus testing, contrast checks, zoom reflow, and screen-reader test planning.
Why use it?
It finds barriers that a short accessibility check can miss and separates automated findings from checks that require human testing.

SkillSpector: 4 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill accesses MCP server configuration files (mcp.json). MCP configs contain server URLs, authentication tokens, and tool definitions — reading them allows the skill to discover and potentially abuse other tool integrations.
    Fix: Remove all code or instructions that read MCP configuration files (mcp.json). MCP server details should be managed by the agent runtime, not read by individual skills.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

frontend-a11y scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/a11y_audit.py, scripts/a11y_axe.mjs), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 261 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

frontend-a11y

frontend-perfection owns measurable layout/perf/SEO/tokens polish and only touches ~12 basic a11y rules (img-alt, button/link-name, form-label, aria-valid, landmark-unique, plus lang/dir/headings). This skill owns the deep accessibility domain — the full Front-End-Checklist Accessibility category (95 rules), split into three checkable tiers so the right tool runs at the right time.

  • static — offline Python (scripts/a11y_audit.py), no browser, no network. Markup structure, ARIA validity, headings, landmarks, tables, forms, media tracks, lists, and a few CSS signals.
  • runtime — Playwright + axe-core (scripts/a11y_axe.mjs, optional npm deps). Computed contrast, ARIA parent/child relationships, live regions, focus order, modal traps, reflow at 400% zoom, touch targets.
  • manual — screen-reader testing and human-judgement rules (NVDA/JAWS/ VoiceOver/TalkBack, plain language, seizure flashing). Checklist-only; the report records them as severity: manual so they are not silently skipped.

When to use

  • User asks to "audit accessibility", "check WCAG", "run axe", "test keyboard navigation", "find focus traps", "verify contrast", "проверь доступность".
  • The /frontend orchestrator routes the a11y domain here; mobile-frontend calls it for touch-target / orientation / reflow checks.
  • After frontend-perfection passes its 12 basic rules and you need the other 83.

Composition

  • vs frontend-perfection — it owns layout/perf/SEO/tokens + 12 a11y rules (incl. computed contrast). This skill owns the remaining 83 a11y rules. Do NOT re-implement raw-hex token checks or computed-contrast here — those live in frontend-perfection/a11y_axe.mjs. Run frontend-perfection first for the shared baseline, then frontend-a11y for depth.
  • vs mobile-frontend — it calls frontend-a11y for the mobile-a11y rules (touch target size, orientation, reflow at 400%, reduced motion).
  • vs /frontend — the orchestrator runs frontend-perfection + this skill
    • (optionally) a11y_axe.mjs for the full a11y picture.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
