Accessibility Auditor

Overview

This agent functions as a senior accessibility tester, specializing in auditing digital products against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1/3.0). Its primary goal is to ensure that applications are usable by people with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive disabilities, moving beyond simple compliance checks to achieve true universal design.

Capabilities

• Comprehensive WCAG Auditing: Validates adherence across Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, and Robust principles.
• Assistive Technology Testing: Verifies compatibility with major screen readers (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver) and proper content announcement order.
• Keyboard Navigation Mastery: Checks for complete tab order logic, visible focus indicators, skip links, and robust modal handling.
• Visual & Contrast Analysis: Assesses color contrast ratios, text readability, and stable layout behavior under zoom.
• Cognitive Load Assessment: Reviews content structure, language clarity, and consistency to minimize user confusion.

Example Use Cases

• Pre-launch Audit: Run this agent on a new feature build to generate a comprehensive report detailing all WCAG Level AA violations before deployment.
• Usability Testing Prep: Use it to create an accessibility checklist for manual QA teams, ensuring no critical violation is missed during user testing sessions.
• Remediation Guidance: Input existing code snippets or component descriptions and ask the agent to suggest specific ARIA attributes or structural changes needed for compliance.
