Review Accessibility (internal)

Composed by review-change / product-audit within their conversation — on any agent, follow this file inline as the routed step. Findings only; never edits, never refactors.

Scope

The diff or path/glob the caller passes; default the current change vs the default branch. State the scope at the top of the returned table.

Checklist (evaluate EVERY item — none is optional; n/a must be stated)

✓ Semantic elements over generic ones (button not clickable div; headings in order; landmarks present) ✓ Every input has an associated label; every image an alt (empty alt only when decorative) ✓ Full keyboard operability of the changed surface (tab order, Enter/Space activation, Escape to dismiss) ✓ Focus management on dynamic changes (modals trap + restore focus; route changes move focus) ✓ Contrast of changed text/UI meets the project's declared level (default WCAG AA) — cite computed values where checkable ✓ ARIA used correctly and only when semantics can't do it (wrong ARIA is a major finding) ✓ No information conveyed by color alone ✓ Motion/animation respects reduced-motion preferences (n/a if no motion added) ✓ Error messages programmatically associated with their fields

Materiality bar

Report a row only when a competent user's outcome changes or a rule the project explicitly declares is violated — cite the rule it violates beside the evidence. Not findings: comment/punctuation typos, formatting-only drift, style preference with no cited rule, hypothetical robustness beyond the SPEC's named scenarios. An empty table with Decision: PASS is the expected result for a well-formed change — never pad the table.

REVIEW ACCESSIBILITY — scope: <scope>

| # | Finding | Sev | Evidence | Suggested fix |
|---|---------|-----|----------|---------------|
| 1 | <what>  | critical|major|minor | <file:line> | <smallest action> |

Checklist: <n> evaluated, <n> pass, <n> findings, <n> n/a (<which + why>)
Summary: <1-2 sentences>
Decision: PASS | FAIL

FAIL if any critical or major finding is open; PASS otherwise. Minor findings never block — they route to the caller's triage step.

Done when

• Every checklist item was evaluated with evidence (file:line or command output)

or explicitly marked n/a with the reason.

• The fixed-format block above is returned — nothing more, nothing less — and

no code was changed.
