heading-structure

heading-structure is a skill for Claude Code from Owl-Listener/inclusive-design-skills. It costs 74 tokens per session (761 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for arranging page headings so people can understand and navigate the content. Screen reader users can use headings to jump between sections, much like sighted users scan a page.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when structuring pages, articles, dashboards, forms, or other content-heavy interfaces. It helps choose page titles, section headings, and subheadings in the right order.
Why use it?
A clear hierarchy prevents content from becoming a confusing wall of text and helps people find the section they need.

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

heading-structure 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 106 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Heading Structure

Headings are navigation for screen reader users and cognitive signposts for everyone. A clear heading structure is the difference between content people can find and content people abandon.

Why This Matters

Screen reader users navigate by headings — they press a key to jump between headings the way sighted users scan a page visually. If your heading structure is broken, screen reader users are lost in a wall of undifferentiated text.

For people with cognitive disabilities, headings are the primary way they understand what content a page contains and where to find what they need.

Rules

One H1 Per Page

  • The H1 is the page title — what this page is about
  • It should match or closely relate to the page's title tag and the link that brought the user here
  • Never use more than one H1 on a page

No Skipped Levels

  • Go H1 → H2 → H3, never H1 → H3
  • Skipping levels breaks screen reader navigation and confuses the document outline
  • You can go back up: H3 → H2 is fine (starting a new section)

Headings Describe Content

  • Headings are signposts, not decoration
  • "Your Account Settings" not "Section 2"
  • "Choose a Delivery Date" not "Step 3"
  • A user should understand the page's content by reading only the headings

Headings Are Not Visual Styling

  • Don't use a heading tag just to make text big or bold
  • Don't skip heading tags and just style text to look like a heading
  • The tag determines the structure; CSS determines the appearance
  • If it looks like a heading but isn't one, screen reader users can't find it
  • Most pages: H1 through H3 is sufficient
  • Complex pages: H1 through H4 maximum
  • If you need H5 or H6: the page is probably too complex — consider splitting it
