PROMPT

Create a skill called "Accessibility Sweep". When I give you a website URL or HTML files, run a comprehensive WCAG 2.1 accessibility audit on every page. Use automated accessibility rules plus structural checks. Draft fixes for straightforward issues: suggest alt text for images missing it, add missing form labels, fix heading-order problems, add skip-navigation links, and add the lang attribute. For color contrast violations, suggest the closest accessible color that still matches the brand palette. For keyboard and ARIA issues, provide specific code fixes. Output a prioritized report ranked by severity (critical, serious, moderate, minor) with estimated fix time for each. Include a summary accessibility score and a total estimated remediation time.

How It Works

Give your Claw a URL or a set of HTML files, and it runs a deep

accessibility audit using automated checks plus structural review.

Straightforward issues can be drafted as fixes for your review. Complex

issues get a prioritized report with specific recommendations.

What You Get

  • Full WCAG 2.1 AA audit across every page you include
  • Draft fixes for common issues: missing alt text suggestions, missing form labels, heading-order problems, missing skip links, missing lang attribute
  • Color contrast violations with suggested accessible alternatives that stay close to the brand palette
  • Keyboard navigation issues flagged with specific fix guidance
  • ARIA audit: missing roles, misused attributes, improper widget patterns
  • A prioritized fix list ranked by severity and user impact
  • A summary accessibility score and estimated remediation effort

Setup Steps

  1. Give your Claw a site URL, staging URL, or directory of HTML files
  2. Optionally specify WCAG level target (default: AA)
  3. Your Claw crawls the pages and runs the audit
  4. Review draft fixes and the prioritized manual fix list
  5. Apply the approved fixes and re-run to verify improvements

Tips

  • Run this before every launch — it is easier to fix issues before handoff than after
  • Generated alt text should always be reviewed for accuracy and context
  • Color contrast suggestions are strongest when the project already has a defined token system
  • Re-run after fixes to confirm you actually resolved the issues
