# Send Axe DevTools to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### axe Accessibility Skill

Test web pages for accessibility violations and get AI-powered remediation guidance using the axe DevTools MCP Server.

### Prerequisites

Docker running locally
AXE_API_KEY environment variable set
Docker image pulled: dequesystems/axe-mcp-server:latest

### Tools

The wrapper script at scripts/axe-mcp.js (Node.js — no extra dependencies) provides two tools:

### analyze

Scan a live web page for accessibility violations. Requires a URL (works with localhost).

node scripts/axe-mcp.js analyze <url>

Returns JSON-RPC response. The violations are in result.content[0].text (JSON string) under the data array. Each violation has: rule, impact, description, selector, source, helpUrl.

### remediate

Get AI-powered fix guidance for a specific violation. Handles HTML with quotes/brackets safely.

node scripts/axe-mcp.js remediate <ruleId> <elementHtml> <issueRemediation> [pageUrl]

Returns general_description, remediation, and code_fix in result.content[0].text.

### tools-list

List available MCP tools.

node scripts/axe-mcp.js tools-list

### Workflow

When modifying UI code and a live page is available:

Analyze — node scripts/axe-mcp.js analyze <url>
Parse — extract violations from the JSON response
Remediate — for each unique rule violation, call remediate with ruleId, element HTML, and issue description
Apply — implement the recommended code fixes in source
Verify — re-run analyze to confirm zero violations

When no live page is available (static code review), apply accessibility best practices directly:

Images: alt text (or alt="" for decorative)
Forms: inputs need associated <label> elements
Interactive elements: keyboard accessible, visible focus
Color contrast: WCAG AA (4.5:1 normal text, 3:1 large text)
ARIA: valid, complete, not redundant with native semantics
Headings: proper hierarchy (h1 → h2 → h3)
Dynamic content: focus management for modals, SPAs, live regions

### Notes

Each remediate call uses AI credits from your organization's allocation
The analyze tool spins up a real browser in Docker — allow ~30s for results
Works with localhost URLs for local development testing

Note: Requires a paid Axe DevTools for Web subscription.
