Accessibility Auditor

Overview

Audits web pages and UI components against WCAG 2.2 (Level AA) success criteria. Identifies violations in color contrast, keyboard navigation, ARIA usage, semantic HTML, form labeling, focus management, and dynamic content updates. Produces actionable fixes with exact code changes.

Instructions

When asked to audit accessibility:

1. Determine the scope:
   • Single component, full page, or entire application?
   • Target compliance level: A, AA (default), or AAA?
   • Any specific regulations: EAA (European Accessibility Act, in force since 28 June 2025, points to EN 301 549 which is based on WCAG 2.1 AA), ADA (US DOJ Title II rule for public bodies names WCAG 2.1 AA), Section 508? WCAG 2.2 is a superset, so auditing against it covers them.
   • If the app runs, start with an automated pass (axe-core via @axe-core/cli, Lighthouse, or pa11y) and then review by hand what tools cannot judge.
