| description | Map accessibility findings to help resources: axe-core to Accessibility Insights, document rules to Microsoft Office/Adobe, WCAG criteria to W3C Understanding documents. |
Centralized mapping of accessibility rule IDs and WCAG criteria to external help documentation. Used by CSV reporters, audit report generators, and any agent that links findings to remediation guidance.
Base URL: https://accessibilityinsights.io/info-examples/web/
Pattern: {base_url}{rule-id}
Example: https://accessibilityinsights.io/info-examples/web/image-alt/
