quick-web-check

Fast accessibility triage — runs axe-core against a live URL and returns an inline pass/fail verdict with a score. No code review, no saved file. The fastest way to check a page.

When to Use It

  • You want a quick sanity check before a demo or release
  • You need a fast signal on whether a page has critical issues
  • You are triaging a list of pages to know which ones need deeper review
  • You want to check a page during development without the full audit overhead

How to Launch It

In GitHub Copilot Chat:

/quick-web-check https://example.com

In Claude Code:

@quick-web-check https://myapp.com/login

What to Expect

The agent runs axe-core immediately — no setup questions, no configuration:

npx @axe-core/cli <pageUrl> --tags wcag2a,wcag2aa,wcag21a,wcag21aa

Results appear inline in chat within seconds:

Quick Check: https://example.com/login
Score: 74 (C)

Violations: 5
  Critical: 1
  Serious:  2
  Moderate: 1
  Minor:    1

Top Issues:
  1. color-contrast — Insufficient contrast on input placeholder text — Serious
  2. label — Missing accessible name on password input — Critical
  3. button-name — Icon button has no accessible name — Serious

Rules Passed: 38

Verdict: NEEDS WORK — 1 critical violation found

Verdict thresholds:

Verdict Condition
PASS Zero critical and zero serious violations
NEEDS WORK 1–3 serious violations, no critical
FAIL Any critical violation, or 4+ serious

The Escalation Offer

If issues are found, the agent asks: "Want to run a full audit with code review and remediation steps?" — one word to launch audit-web-page on the same URL.
