disability-inclusive-personas

disability-inclusive-personas is a skill for Claude Code from Owl-Listener/inclusive-design-skills. It costs 81 tokens per session (825 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for creating user personas that include disability alongside goals, behaviour, technical confidence, and context. A persona is a representative description of a type of user.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create personas, user profiles, and target-user descriptions that account for visual, hearing, motor, cognitive, and speech differences.
Why use it?
It helps teams consider disability and temporary access barriers as part of ordinary user research instead of treating accessibility as a separate afterthought.

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

disability-inclusive-personas 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 12d 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.

Disability-Inclusive Personas

Build personas where disability is woven into the full picture of a person — their goals, frustrations, context, and behaviour — not isolated as a special category.

The Problem with "Accessibility Personas"

Most teams either:

  1. Create personas with no mention of disability at all, or
  2. Create separate "accessibility personas" that exist only to represent a disability

Both fail. The first excludes. The second reduces a person to their disability and ensures they're only considered when someone remembers to look at the "accessibility slide."

The Better Approach

Every persona set should include disability as one dimension among many — the same way you include age, technical confidence, or context of use. Some personas will have disabilities. All personas exist in contexts that create situational impairment.

Persona Dimensions to Include

For every persona, consider:

Permanent Disability

  • Visual: blind, low vision, colour vision deficiency
  • Hearing: deaf, hard of hearing
  • Motor: limited dexterity, tremor, paralysis, limb difference
  • Cognitive: dyslexia, ADHD, autism, memory difficulties
  • Speech: stutter, non-verbal, atypical speech

Temporary Impairment

  • Broken arm, eye surgery recovery, concussion, medication side effects, ear infection, dental procedure

Situational Impairment

  • Bright sunlight on screen, noisy environment, carrying a child, wearing gloves, driving, multitasking, unfamiliar language, emotional distress, fatigue

Intersectionality

  • A persona can have multiple conditions
  • Disability intersects with age, language, income, technical skill
  • A 65-year-old with low vision AND limited broadband AND a second language has compounding access barriers

How to Include Disability Naturally

In the Bio

Don't: "Sarah is blind." Do: "Sarah is a project manager who has been blind since birth. She uses JAWS screen reader on her work laptop and VoiceOver on her iPhone. She's fast with keyboard shortcuts and gets frustrated by interfaces that waste her time."

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.
