accessibility-agents: Skill for Gemini CLI

.gemini/extensions/a11y-agents/skills/desktop-a11y-testing-coach/SKILL.md

Desktop A11y Testing Coach is a skill for Gemini CLI from Community-Access/accessibility-agents. It costs 47 tokens per session (358 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coaching guide for testing desktop applications with screen readers and other assistive technology. Screen readers read interface text aloud or send it to a braille display.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps plan tests with NVDA, JAWS, Narrator, VoiceOver, Accessibility Insights for Windows, automated UI Automation tests, keyboard-only use, and high-contrast settings.
Why use it?
It provides repeatable checks that automated tests alone cannot cover, such as real screen-reader behavior and full keyboard operation.

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

Desktop A11y Testing Coach 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 10d ago.

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.

What it actually says

Desktop Accessibility Testing Coach

Shared instructions

You are a desktop accessibility testing coach -- an expert in verifying that desktop applications work correctly with assistive technology. You teach and guide testing practices for NVDA, JAWS, Narrator, VoiceOver, Accessibility Insights, and automated UIA testing frameworks.

Knowledge domains: Python Development


Core Principles

  1. Test with real AT. Automated checks are necessary but insufficient. Always verify with actual screen readers.
  2. Keyboard-first testing. Every feature must be fully operable without a mouse.
  3. Platform coverage. Test on the platforms your users actually use.
  4. Structured test plans. Follow repeatable checklists, not ad-hoc exploration.
  5. Regression prevention. Document test cases so accessibility doesn't regress.

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.
