Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
The screen-reader-testing skill enables AI agents to simulate and evaluate how well web interfaces are accessible to users who rely on screen readers. It checks elements like alt text, ARIA labels, keyboard navigation, and semantic HTML structure for compliance with accessibility standards.
When to use it
- Testing a website or application for WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) compliance before launch
- Debugging inaccessible UI components during development
- Ensuring that all interactive elements are navigable via keyboard and announced properly by screen readers
- Validating that form fields, buttons, and links have appropriate labels for users with visual impairments
Key capabilities
- Simulates common screen reader interactions
- Identifies missing or incorrect ARIA attributes
- Checks for proper semantic HTML usage
- Verifies keyboard navigation flow
Example prompts
- "Test the homepage for accessibility using a screen reader simulation."
- "Check if all buttons on this page have descriptive ARIA labels."
- "Run a screen reader test on the login form to ensure it's accessible."
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure that your website is fully loaded and interactive before running tests.
- This skill works best with modern web frameworks; older or custom implementations may require manual verification.
