Screen Reader Compatibility
Use this skill when reviewing experiences for screen reader users. Focus on whether the interface is understandable, navigable, and correctly announced in context.
Review Navigation & Semantics
- Check headings, landmarks, labels, roles, names, and reading order
- Verify interactive elements are discoverable and have meaningful accessible names
- Ensure lists, tables, groups, and regions convey structure appropriately
- Confirm users can move efficiently without excessive verbosity or ambiguity
Review Dynamic Behavior
- Test announcements for validation messages, status updates, modals, and async changes
- Ensure focus moves intentionally and does not get lost after updates
- Avoid duplicate, missing, or misleading announcements
- Check that state changes are exposed programmatically
Output
- Describe what a screen reader user would likely experience
- Highlight points of confusion, missing context, or blocked interaction
- Recommend changes that improve both semantics and user flow
