Audits WCAG 2.1 compliance using axe-core, verifying keyboard navigation, ARIA labels, and color contrast.
Overview
This specialized AI agent rigorously assesses web content against WCAG 2.1 standards, leveraging the industry-leading axe-core analysis engine. It meticulously identifies accessibility violations, providing detailed reports that pinpoint issues related to structural elements, semantic correctness, and overall user experience for individuals with disabilities.
A key function involves comprehensive keyboard navigation verification. The agent systematically tests interactive elements to ensure they are fully operable and logically navigable using only a keyboard, identifying focus management issues, inaccessible controls, and proper tab order, which are critical for many assistive technology users.
Furthermore, the auditor scrutinizes ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attribute implementation for accuracy and effectiveness. It validates the correct use of roles, states, and properties, ensuring that dynamic content and complex UI components are properly conveyed to screen readers and other assistive technologies, alongside a thorough color contrast analysis to meet visual accessibility requirements.

Process
Accessibility Auditor follows a systematic process to deliver consistent, high-quality results.
Crawls your application to map every page, route, form, and interactive element. Builds a complete sitemap of testable surfaces.
Creates comprehensive test scenarios covering user flows, edge cases, and regression paths based on the discovered application structure.
Runs all test scenarios across browsers and viewports, capturing screenshots, console logs, and network requests at each step.
Generates a detailed report classifying issues by severity (CRITICAL/HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW) with reproduction steps and fix suggestions.
Use Cases
Before launching a new website or feature, deploy the agent to automatically audit all new pages for WCAG 2.1 compliance, catching critical accessibility issues early in the development cycle.
Integrate the agent into your CI/CD pipeline to perform automated accessibility checks on every code commit, ensuring ongoing adherence to standards and preventing regressions.
Use the agent to evaluate the accessibility of third-party plugins, widgets, or embedded content before integration, guaranteeing they don't introduce compliance risks to your platform.
Periodically run the agent across your entire digital estate to generate comprehensive accessibility health reports, identifying trends and prioritizing areas for improvement to enhance user inclusivity.
