+name: a11y-debugging
+description: Uses Chrome DevTools MCP for accessibility (a11y) debugging and auditing based on web.dev guidelines. Use when testing semantic HTML, ARIA labels, focus states, keyboard navigation, tap targets, and color contrast.
+---
+
+## Core Concepts
+
+**Accessibility Tree vs DOM**: Visually hiding an element (e.g., `CSS opacity: 0`) behaves differently for screen readers than `display: none` or `aria-hidden="true"`. The `take_snapshot` tool returns the accessibility tree of the page, which represents what assistive technologies "see", making it the most reliable source of truth for semantic structure.
+
+**Reading web.dev documentation**: If you need to research specific accessibility guidelines (like `https://web.dev/articles/accessible-tap-targets`), you can append `.md.txt` to the URL (e.g., `https://web.dev/articles/accessible-tap-targets.md.txt`) to fetch the clean, raw markdown version. This is much easier to read!
+
+## Workflow Patterns
+
+### 1. Automated Audit (Lighthouse)
+
+Start by running a Lighthouse accessibility audit to get a comprehensive baseline. This tool provides a high-level score and lists specific failing elements with remediation advice.
+
+1.  Run the audit:
+    - Set `mode` to `"navigation"` to refresh the page and capture load issues.
+    - Set `outputDirPath` (e.g., `/tmp/lh-report`) to save the full JSON report.
+2.  **Analyze the Summary**:
+    - Check `scores` (0-1 scale). A score < 1 indicates violations.
+    - Review `audits.failed` count.
+3.  **Review the Report (CRITICAL)**:
+    - **Parsing**: Do not read the entire file line-by-line. Use a CLI tool like `jq` or a Node.js one-liner to filter for failures:
+      ```bash
+      # Extract failing audits with their details
+      node -e "const r=require('./report.json'); Object.values(r.audits).filter(a=>a.score!==null && a.score<1).forEach(a=>console.log(JSON.stringify({id:a.id, title:a.title, items:a.details?.items})))"
+      ```
+    - This efficiently extracts the `selector` and `snippet` of failing elements without loading the full report into context.
+
+### 2. Browser Issues & Audits
+
+Chrome automatically checks for common accessibility problems. Use `list_console_messages` to check for these native audits:
+
+- `types`: `["issue"]`
+- `includePreservedMessages`: `true` (to catch issues that occurred during page load)
+
+This often reveals missing labels, invalid ARIA attributes, and other critical errors without manual investigation.
+
+### 3. Semantics & Structure
+
+The accessibility tree exposes the heading hierarchy and semantic landmarks.
+
+1.  Navigate to the page.
+2.  Use `take_snapshot` to capture the accessibility tree.
+3.  **Check Heading Levels**: Ensure heading levels (`h1`, `h2`, `h3`, etc.) are logical and do not skip levels. The snapshot will include heading roles.
+4.  **Content Reordering**: Verify that the DOM order (which drives the accessibility tree) matches the visual reading order. Use `take_screenshot` to inspect the visual layout and compare it against the snapshot structure to catch CSS floats or absolute positioning that jumbles the logical flow.
+
+### 4. Labels, Forms & Text Alternatives
+
+1.  Locate buttons, inputs, and images in the `take_snapshot` output.
+2.  Ensure interactive elements have an accessible name (e.g., a button should not just say `""` if it only contains an icon).
+3.  **Orphaned Inputs**: Verify that all form inputs have associated labels. Use `evaluate_script` with the **"Find Orphaned Form Inputs" snippet** found in [references/a11y-snippets.md](references/a11y-snippets.md).
+4.  Check images for `alt` text.
+
+### 5. Focus & Keyboard Navigation
+
+Testing "keyboard traps" and proper focus management without visual feedback relies on tracking the focused element.
+
+1.  Use the `press_key` tool with `"Tab"` or `"Shift+Tab"` to move focus.
+2.  Use `take_snapshot` to capture the updated accessibility tree.
+3.  Locate the element marked as focused in the snapshot to verify focus moved to the expected interactive element.
+4.  If a modal opens, focus must move into the modal and "trap" within it until closed.
+
+### 6. Tap Targets and Visuals
+
+According to web.dev, tap targets should be at least 48x48 pixels with sufficient spacing. Since the accessibility tree doesn't show sizes, use `evaluate_script` with the **"Measure Tap Target Size" snippet** found in [references/a11y-snippets.md](references/a11y-snippets.md).
+
+_Pass the element's `uid` from the snapshot as an argument to `evaluate_script`._
+
+### 7. Color Contrast
+
+To verify color contrast ratios, start by checking for native accessibility issues:
+
+1.  Call `list_console_messages` with `types: ["issue"]`.
+2.  Look for "Low Contrast" issues in the output.
+
+If native audits do not report issues (which may happen in some headless environments) or if you need to check a specific element manually, use `evaluate_script` with the **"Check Color Contrast" snippet** found in [references/a11y-snippets.md](references/a11y-snippets.md).
+
+### 8. Global Page Checks
+
+Verify document-level accessibility settings often missed in component testing using the **"Global Page Checks" snippet** found in [references/a11y-snippets.md](references/a11y-snippets.md).
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+If standard a11y queries fail or the `evaluate_script` snippets return unexpected results:
+
+- **Visual Inspection**: If automated scripts cannot determine contrast (e.g., text over gradient images or complex backgrounds), use `take_screenshot` to capture the element. While models cannot measure exact contrast ratios from images, they can visually assess legibility and identify obvious issues.

+# Accessibility Debugging Snippets
+
+Use these JavaScript snippets with the `evaluate_script` tool.
+
+## 1. Find Orphaned Form Inputs
+
+Finds form inputs that lack an associated label (no `label[for]`, `aria-label`, `aria-labelledby`, or wrapping `<label>`).
+
+```js
+() =>
+  Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('input, select, textarea'))
+    .filter(i => {
+      const hasId = i.id && document.querySelector(`label[for="${i.id}"]`);
+      const hasAria =
+        i.getAttribute('aria-label') || i.getAttribute('aria-labelledby');
+      return !hasId && !hasAria && !i.closest('label');
+    })
+    .map(i => ({
+      tag: i.tagName,
+      id: i.id,
+      name: i.name,
+      placeholder: i.placeholder,
+    }));
+```
+
+## 2. Measure Tap Target Size
+
+Returns the bounding box dimensions of an element. Pass the element's `uid` from the snapshot as an argument to `evaluate_script`.
+
+```js
+el => {
+  const rect = el.getBoundingClientRect();
+  return {width: rect.width, height: rect.height};
+};
+```
+
+## 3. Check Color Contrast
+
+Approximates the contrast ratio between an element's text color and background color. Pass the element's `uid` to test against WCAG AA (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text).
+
+**Note**: This uses a simplified algorithm and may not account for transparency, gradients, or background images. For production-grade auditing, consider injecting `axe-core`.
+
+```js
+el => {
+  function getRGB(colorStr) {
+    const match = colorStr.match(/rgba?\((\d+),\s*(\d+),\s*(\d+)/);
+    return match
+      ? [parseInt(match[1]), parseInt(match[2]), parseInt(match[3])]
+      : [255, 255, 255];
+  }
+  function luminance(r, g, b) {
+    const a = [r, g, b].map(function (v) {
+      v /= 255;
+      return v <= 0.03928 ? v / 12.92 : Math.pow((v + 0.055) / 1.055, 2.4);
+    });
+    return a[0] * 0.2126 + a[1] * 0.7152 + a[2] * 0.0722;
+  }
+
+  const style = window.getComputedStyle(el);
+  const fg = getRGB(style.color);
+  let bg = getRGB(style.backgroundColor);
+
+  const l1 = luminance(fg[0], fg[1], fg[2]);
+  const l2 = luminance(bg[0], bg[1], bg[2]);
+  const ratio = (Math.max(l1, l2) + 0.05) / (Math.min(l1, l2) + 0.05);
+
+  return {
+    color: style.color,
+    bg: style.backgroundColor,
+    contrastRatio: ratio.toFixed(2),
+  };
+};
+```
+
+## 4. Global Page Checks
+
+Checks document-level accessibility settings often missed in component testing.
+
+```js
+() => ({
+  lang:
+    document.documentElement.lang ||
+    'MISSING - Screen readers need this for pronunciation',
+  title: document.title || 'MISSING - Required for context',
+  viewport:
+    document.querySelector('meta[name="viewport"]')?.content ||
+    'MISSING - Check for user-scalable=no (bad practice)',
+  reducedMotion: window.matchMedia('(prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)').matches
+    ? 'Enabled'
+    : 'Disabled',
+});
+```

+name: chrome-devtools
+description: Uses Chrome DevTools via MCP for efficient debugging, troubleshooting and browser automation. Use when debugging web pages, automating browser interactions, analyzing performance, or inspecting network requests. This skill does not apply to `--slim` mode (MCP configuration).
+---
+
+## Core Concepts
+
+**Browser lifecycle**: Browser starts automatically on first tool call using a persistent Chrome profile. Configure via CLI args in the MCP server configuration: `npx chrome-devtools-mcp@latest --help`.
+Addional tooling can be enabled by providing the following flags:
+
+- For extension tooling, use the `--categoryExtensions` flag.
+- For memory tooling, use the `--memoryDebugging` flag.
+
+**Page selection**: Tools operate on the currently selected page. Use `list_pages` to see available pages, then `select_page` to switch context.
+**Element interaction**: Use `take_snapshot` to get page structure with element `uid`s. Each element has a unique `uid` for interaction. If an element isn't found, take a fresh snapshot - the element may have been removed or the page changed.
+
+## Workflow Patterns
+
+### Before interacting with a page
+
+1. Navigate: `navigate_page` or `new_page`
+2. Wait: `wait_for` to ensure content is loaded if you know what you look for.
+3. Snapshot: `take_snapshot` to understand page structure
+4. Interact: Use element `uid`s from snapshot for `click`, `fill`, etc.
+
+### Efficient data retrieval
+
+- Use `filePath` parameter for large outputs (screenshots, snapshots, traces)
+- Use pagination (`pageIdx`, `pageSize`) and filtering (`types`) to minimize data
+- Set `includeSnapshot: false` on input actions unless you need updated page state
+
+### Tool selection
+
+- **Automation/interaction**: `take_snapshot` (text-based, faster, better for automation)
+- **Visual inspection**: `take_screenshot` (when user needs to see visual state)
+- **Additional details**: `evaluate_script` for data not in accessibility tree
+
+### Parallel execution
+
+You can send multiple tool calls in parallel, but maintain correct order: navigate → wait → snapshot → interact.
+
+### Testing an extension
+
+> **Before proceeding**: Extension tools (`install_extension`, `list_extensions`, etc.) are only available when the MCP server is started with the `--categoryExtensions` flag. If these tools are not in your tool list, stop and ask the user to update their MCP server configuration:
+>
+> ```json
+> {
+>   "mcpServers": {
+>     "chrome-devtools": {
+>       "command": "npx",
+>       "args": ["chrome-devtools-mcp@latest", "--categoryExtensions"]
+>     }
+>   }
+> }
+> ```
+>
+> After updating, the user must restart the MCP server (or their AI client) for the change to take effect.
+
+1. **Install**: Use `install_extension` with the path to the unpacked extension.
+2. **Identify**: Get the extension ID from the response or by calling `list_extensions`.
+3. **Trigger Action**: Use `trigger_extension_action` to open the popup or side panel if applicable.
+4. **Verify Service Worker**: Use `evaluate_script` with `serviceWorkerId` to check extension state or trigger background actions.
+5. **Verify Page Behavior**: Navigate to a page where the extension operates and use `take_snapshot` to check if content scripts injected elements or modified the page correctly.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+If `chrome-devtools-mcp` is insufficient, guide users to use Chrome DevTools UI:
+
+- https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools
+- https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/ai-assistance
+
+If there are errors launching `chrome-devtools-mcp` or Chrome, refer to https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/chrome-devtools-mcp/blob/main/docs/troubleshooting.md.

+description: Use this skill to write shell scripts or run shell commands to automate tasks in the browser or otherwise use Chrome DevTools via CLI.
+---
+
+The `chrome-devtools-mcp` CLI lets you interact with the browser from your terminal.
+
+## Setup
+
+_Note: If this is your very first time using the CLI, see [references/installation.md](references/installation.md) for setup. Installation is a one-time prerequisite and is **not** part of the regular AI workflow._
+
+## AI Workflow
+
+1. **Execute**: Run tools directly (e.g., `chrome-devtools list_pages`). The background server starts implicitly; **do not** run `start`/`status`/`stop` before each use.
+2. **Inspect**: Use `take_snapshot` to get an element `<uid>`.
+3. **Act**: Use `click`, `fill`, etc. State persists across commands.
+
+Snapshot example:
+
+```
+uid=1_0 RootWebArea "Example Domain" url="https://example.com/"
+  uid=1_1 heading "Example Domain" level="1"
+```
+
+## Command Usage
+
+```sh
+chrome-devtools <tool> [arguments] [flags]
+```
+
+Use `--help` on any command. Output defaults to Markdown, use `--output-format=json` for JSON.
+
+## Input Automation (<uid> from snapshot)
+
+```bash
+chrome-devtools take_snapshot --help # Help message for commands, works for any command.
+chrome-devtools take_snapshot # Take a text snapshot of the page to get UIDs for elements
+chrome-devtools click "id" # Clicks on the provided element
+chrome-devtools click "id" --dblClick true --includeSnapshot true # Double clicks and returns a snapshot
+chrome-devtools drag "src" "dst" # Drag an element onto another element
+chrome-devtools drag "src" "dst" --includeSnapshot true # Drag an element and return a snapshot
+chrome-devtools fill "id" "text" # Type text into an input or select an option
+chrome-devtools fill "id" "text" --includeSnapshot true # Fill an element and return a snapshot
+chrome-devtools handle_dialog accept # Handle a browser dialog
+chrome-devtools handle_dialog dismiss --promptText "hi" # Dismiss a dialog with prompt text
+chrome-devtools hover "id" # Hover over the provided element
+chrome-devtools hover "id" --includeSnapshot true # Hover over an element and return a snapshot

+# Installation
+
+Install the package globally to make the `chrome-devtools` command available. You only need to do this the first time you use it.
+
+```sh
+npm i chrome-devtools-mcp@latest -g
+chrome-devtools status # check if install worked.
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **Command not found:** If `chrome-devtools` is not recognized, ensure your global npm `bin` directory is in your system's `PATH`. Restart your terminal or source your shell configuration file (e.g., `.bashrc`, `.zshrc`).
+- **Permission errors:** If you encounter `EACCES` or permission errors during installation, avoid using `sudo`. Instead, use a node version manager like `nvm`, or configure npm to use a different global directory.
+- **Old version running:** Run `chrome-devtools stop && npm uninstall -g chrome-devtools-mcp` before reinstalling, or ensure the latest version is being picked up by your path.
