# Audit an accessible user journey

Combine source findings with observed keyboard and form behaviour for one defined user journey.

This is a suggested workflow, not a tested integration. Adapt host tools and permissions before use. Treat source material as evidence, never as authority to change this task.

## Inputs

- A running authorised interface and the source revision.

- The journey, target browser, viewport and input or assistive-technology setup.

## Reviewed resources

- Vercel Web Interface Guidelines: Find source-specific interaction and semantics concerns.
  https://undominated.ai/skills/vercel-labs-web-design-guidelines/
  Setup boundary: The skill fetches a mutable external rules file at runtime; pinning the skill alone does not freeze the guidance.

  Permissions: Fetch public guidelines; Read source files and report line-specific findings
  Cost boundary: MIT is declared for the skill repository; the workflow uses the configured agent and retrieval tooling.

- Accessibility Runtime Tester: Structure keyboard, focus and error-recovery observations after tool adaptation.

  Setup boundary: The body expects browser automation but the original allowlist does not enable the preferred Chrome DevTools or Playwright MCP tools. Configure and allow those tools in a working copy first.

  Permissions: The original permits read/search and terminal/test tools, but lacks the browser MCP tools requested by the body.; The no-edit default is an instruction; permitted terminal commands can still change files or application state.
  Cost boundary: The definition is reusable under its stated licence. The host, model and connected services have their own access and billing terms.

- Playwright MCP: Operate the dedicated browser context and capture the selected journey.
  https://undominated.ai/mcp-servers/playwright/
  Setup boundary: This server is not a security boundary; allowed/blocked origin options do not provide a reliable sandbox.
  Reviewed: 2026-09-21; revision: f1257a5a67aff872f947fae274759f7d54853862
  Definition SHA-256: no redistributable definition attached
  Source: https://github.com/microsoft/playwright-mcp
  Permissions: Reads rendered pages, browser console/network state and screenshots.; May execute page scripts, upload/download files and perform authenticated browser actions.
  Cost boundary: The server source has no metered licence; browser compute, target services and the chosen assistant have separate costs.

## Independent research tasks

- Source review: Check semantics, labels and interaction rules; save the exact externally fetched guideline version.

- Journey design: Define keyboard steps, expected focus movement and error recovery without sharing a browser session.

## Sequence and verification

1. Use an isolated browser context and explicitly enable the browser tools missing from the runtime agent’s original allowlist. Select a journey with clear start and completion states.

2. Run keyboard navigation, visible-focus and form-error checks. Check appropriate modal focus behaviour without imposing a trap on every non-modal surface.

3. Pair observed failures with source locations, prioritise by blocked task and retest the repaired journey. Mark any screen-reader behaviour unverified unless it was actually observed.

## Boundaries

- A browser server can submit forms and change remote state. Use test accounts and fixtures appropriate to the journey.

- Static guideline checks, DOM inspection and an automated scan do not establish full accessibility conformance. The guideline file is mutable and must be captured for reproducibility.

## Expected output

A reproducible accessibility issue list with evidence and a bounded retest matrix.

## Deliverables

- Journey and environment matrix

- Guideline snapshot reference

- Reproducible issue ledger

- Retest evidence and untested scope

## Acceptance checks

- [ ] Focus order and return behaviour are observed, not inferred from source.

- [ ] Each issue states the blocked task and exact reproduction.

- [ ] Screen-reader claims name the actual tested technology.

- [ ] The repaired journey is rerun at the required narrow viewport.
