screen-reader-testing

screen-reader-testing is a skill for Claude Code from EngineerWithAI/engineerwith-agents. It costs 39 tokens per session (2,952 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of screen-reader-testing, MIT.

A guide for testing websites with screen readers such as VoiceOver, NVDA, and JAWS. Screen readers read page content and controls aloud or through a refreshable display for people who cannot see or easily read the screen.

In plain words
What is it for?
Check screen-reader compatibility, test ARIA labels and interactive controls, verify accessible forms and navigation, and confirm that dynamic updates are announced.
Why use it?
A page can look correct while its headings, forms, buttons, navigation, or changing content remain confusing or unusable with assistive technology. Testing exposes those problems.

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

screen-reader-testing 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 1mo 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.

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.
