fe-devtools

fe-devtools is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sukirman1901/frontend-expert. It costs 58 tokens per session (618 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A frontend audit workflow that uses browser and testing tools to check performance, accessibility, network activity, layout shifts, and viewport behavior. Lighthouse measures website quality and axe checks for accessibility problems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for Lighthouse or Core Web Vitals checks, axe scans, keyboard and focus testing, network investigation, and responsive layout verification.
Why use it?
It replaces guesses about UI quality with evidence from tools when the project can be run.

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

fe-devtools 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 4d 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.

FE DevTools

Overview

Use browser/tooling evidence when available — don’t invent Lighthouse scores. Pair with web-performance, accessibility, and frontend-testing.

When to use

  • /test-ui or ship checks when tooling exists in the project
  • User asks for Lighthouse, axe, Network, Layout shift, Coverage
  • Design/perf audit needs measured Performance or Accessibility scorecard rows
  • Verifying no horizontal overflow / focus order with real viewport tools

When to skip

  • No runnable app / static markdown-only change
  • User wants theory-only advice with no environment
  • Pure token rename with no UI surface

MUST vs optional

Check MUST when Optional
Responsive viewports Layout UI ship (320/768/1024/1440)
Keyboard / focus Interactive forms, dialogs, drawers
axe / a11y scan /test-ui, /design deep, or user asks Quick source-only audit
Lighthouse / CWV Perf ask, public landing, /design deep with app running Tiny internal chrome tweak
Network waterfalls Suspected overfetch / huge assets Default CRUD form
Layout / CLS Animations, fonts, images without dimensions Static settings copy

Rule: Never fabricate scores. If tools didn’t run → scorecard = not evaluated.

Workflow

  1. Confirm target — URL/route or local preview command
  2. Viewport — resize or device mode; note Responsive Conventions
  3. A11y — axe or equivalent; fix Critical/High (labels, contrast, names)
  4. Perf — Lighthouse or Web Vitals extension on key route; note LCP/INP/CLS risks
  5. Network — flag obvious huge JS/CSS/images on first load
  6. Report — tool · metric · value · source; hand remediations to web-performance / accessibility / build skills

Checklist

  • Did not invent Lighthouse/axe numbers
  • Viewport evidence for layout ships
  • A11y scan when MUST (or waiver documented)
  • Perf metrics only when tool ran or explicitly source-level risks
  • Findings mapped to skills (not dumped as vague “optimize”)

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.
