This skill renders each route in a real browser and\nruns axe-core against the result.</p>\n<h2>Step 1: Boot the app</h2>\n<p>Prefer the production build/runtime — production HTML is what users actually\nreceive. <code>pracht preview</code> builds and serves it for <strong>Node and Cloudflare</strong>\ntargets. It refuses Vercel targets (it prints guidance and exits nonzero):\nfor a Vercel app, run <code>vercel dev</code> yourself or point <code>BASE_URL</code> at a deployed\npreview instead. Fall back to <code>pracht dev</code> only if the user can't build.</p>\n<p>Run the server as a managed background process, wait for readiness, and clean\nit up when the audit ends:</p>\n<pre><code>pracht preview &amp;   # run in the background (use the Bash tool's background mode)\n# wait for readiness before auditing:\nuntil curl -sf http://localhost:3000 &gt; /dev/null; do sleep 1; done\n</code></pre>\n<p>After Step 5 (or on any failure), kill the background process — do not leave\na stray server holding the port.</p>\n<p>Or, if <code>BASE_URL</code> is set, target the deployed app and skip the local server\nentirely.</p>\n<h2>Step 2: Install runner</h2>\n<p>If Playwright is already wired (see <code>scaffold-e2e</code>), reuse it. Install the\naxe adapter plus <code>tsx</code> (the Step 5 runner — it is not a pracht dependency):</p>\n<pre><code>pnpm add -D @axe-core/playwright tsx\n</code></pre>\n<p>If Playwright is not wired, scaffold a one-off script using <code>playwright</code>\ndirectly. Prefer Playwright over Puppeteer for consistency with existing\nproject tooling.</p>\n<h2>Step 3: Enumerate routes</h2>\n<p>MCP: when the pracht MCP server is registered (<code>pracht dev-mcp</code>), prefer its\n<code>inspect_routes</code>/<code>inspect_api</code>/<code>inspect_build</code>/<code>doctor</code>/<code>verify</code> tools over\nshelling out.</p>\n<pre><code>pracht inspect routes --json\n</code></pre>\n<p>Prerequisite: <code>pracht inspect</code> needs a vite config with the pracht plugin\nwired up.</p>\n<p>For dynamic-segment routes, ask the user once for example params (or skip\nwith a note in the report).</p>\n<h2>Step 4: Generate the audit script</h2>\n<p><code>scripts/audit-a11y.ts</code>:</p>\n<pre><code>import { chromium } from \"playwright\";\nimport AxeBuilder from \"@axe-core/playwright\";\n\nconst BASE = process.env.BASE_URL ?? \"http://localhost:3000\";\nconst ROUTES: string[] = [/* injected from pracht inspect routes */];\n\nconst browser = await chromium.launch();\nconst context = await browser.newContext();\nconst page = await context.newPage();\n\nconst results = [];\nfor (const path of ROUTES) {\n  await page.goto(`${BASE}${path}`, { waitUntil: \"networkidle\" });\n  const axe = await new AxeBuilder({ page })\n    .withTags([\"wcag2a\", \"wcag2aa\", \"wcag21aa\", \"best-practice\"])\n    .analyze();\n  results.push({ path, violations: axe.violations });\n}\n\nawait browser.close();\nconsole.log(JSON.stringify(results, null, 2));\n</code></pre>\n<h2>Step 5: Run and aggregate</h2>\n<pre><code>pnpm exec tsx scripts/audit-a11y.ts &gt; a11y-report.json\n</code></pre>\n<p>Then stop the background server from Step 1.</p>\n<p>Aggregate by:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Per-route summary</strong>: violation count, worst severity.</li>\n<li><strong>Per-rule summary</strong>: which rule fires most across the app — usually\nreveals a single component (header, footer, form) that authors every page.</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>Step 6: Report</h2>\n<p>Report findings with a primary severity of <code>error</code> / <code>warn</code> / <code>info</code>,\nmapping axe impacts: critical + serious → <code>error</code>, moderate → <code>warn</code>,\nminor → <code>info</code>. Keep the raw axe impact as a secondary column.</p>\n<pre><code>## Per-route summary\n\n| Route       | Critical | Serious | Moderate | Minor |\n| ----------- | -------- | ------- | -------- | ----- |\n| /           | 0        | 1       | 2        | 0     |\n\n## Per-rule summary (top offenders)\n\n- `color-contrast` — 12 violations across 8 routes\n  → Likely source: shared Button component (src/components/Button.tsx)\n- `image-alt` — 5 violations across 3 routes\n  → Likely source: &lt;img&gt; in shells/marketing.tsx\n\n## Detail\n\n[per-route violations with selectors and help URLs]\n</code></pre>\n<h2>Step 7: Targeted fixes</h2>\n<p>For the top 3 issues, propose concrete patches:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><code>color-contrast</code> → suggest tokenized color pairs from existing CSS vars.</li>\n<li><code>image-alt</code> → list every <code>&lt;img&gt;</code> missing <code>alt</code> and propose either a\ndescription or <code>alt=\"\"</code> (decorative).</li>\n<li><code>landmark-one-main</code> → confirm shells render exactly one <code>&lt;main&gt;</code> element.</li>\n<li><code>label</code> → list inputs without associated <code>&lt;label&gt;</code> and propose\n<code>htmlFor</code>/<code>for</code> or wrapping pattern.</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>Rules</h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Run against the production build/runtime if at all possible — minified production\nmarkup is what real users hit.</li>\n<li>axe with WCAG 2.1 AA + best-practice tags is the default; ask before\ndowngrading.</li>\n<li>Aggregate by rule before per-route — the same component is usually\nresponsible for most violations.</li>\n<li>Do not auto-fix. Suggest, then let the user review per component.</li>\n<li>For SPA routes that need interaction before content appears, ask the user\nfor a setup hook (e.g., a script that logs in and lands on the dashboard).</li>\n<li>Always clean up background servers you started, even when the audit fails\npartway.</li>\n<li>axe sees one page at a time, not what happens between pages. The client\nrouter moves focus to the new page and announces its title or first <code>&lt;h1&gt;</code>\nafter each navigation. If <code>vite.config.ts</code> sets\n<code>client: { accessibleNavigation: false }</code>, report that the app must do both\nitself, and check that it does.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>$ARGUMENTS</p>\n","files":[{"path":"SKILL.md","sizeBytes":5674,"isText":true}],"reviewScore":null,"reviewSummary":null,"trust":{"provenance":"trusted-source-unreviewed","notice":"Community-authored content, reproduced verbatim and not vetted as instructions.
