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
This skill assesses the color contrast ratios between text and background colors on a webpage, ensuring compliance with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). It specifically focuses on the "Perceivable" success criteria related to color contrast. The tool helps identify areas where insufficient contrast may hinder readability for users with visual impairments.
When to use it
- Website Audits: Evaluate existing websites or web applications for WCAG compliance during development or maintenance.
- Design Reviews: Check the color choices in design mockups before implementation to proactively address accessibility issues.
- Content Creation: Verify sufficient contrast when creating new content, such as infographics or presentations intended for online distribution.
- User Feedback: Investigate potential readability problems reported by users with visual impairments.
Key capabilities
- Calculates color contrast ratios based on WCAG standards.
- Evaluates text and background color combinations.
- Focuses on the "Perceivable" success criteria.
Example prompts
- “Check the color contrast between the white text and dark blue background on this webpage: [URL]”
- “What is the WCAG color contrast ratio for the heading text and its background?”
- “Is this color combination accessible according to WCAG guidelines? Text color: #FFFFFF, Background Color: #000080"
