| Audit web pages for accessibility issues, WCAG compliance, and screen reader compatibility. check screen reader support, audit ARIA attributes, verify keyboard navigation, find accessibility issues, or check for missing alt text or labels.
npx skills add https://github.com/billy-enrizky/openbrowser-ai --skill accessibility-audit
Audit web pages for accessibility issues following WCAG 2.1 guidelines using Python code execution. Checks heading structure, form labels, image alt text, ARIA attributes, landmark regions, and keyboard navigation.
All code runs via openbrowser-ai -c. The daemon starts automatically and persists variables across calls. All browser functions are async -- use await.
The CLI daemon also persists cookies and login state in ~/.config/openbrowser/profiles/daemon/storage_state.json, so authenticated sessions can be reused across later runs.
Before running, verify openbrowser-ai is installed:
openbrowser-ai --help

-c - <<'EOF'), so all Python syntax works without shell escaping issues.audit dict -- variables persist between -c calls while the daemon is running.This step is mandatory. Run it after the task finishes, whether the audit succeeded or failed. Without it, the daemon keeps Chrome running until its 10-minute idle timeout, leaving a stale browser process, a locked profile, and (on macOS/Linux desktop) a visible window.
Stop the daemon, then verify it is gone:
openbrowser-ai daemon stop
openbrowser-ai daemon status
daemon stop closes every tab, exits Chrome, flushes saved cookies/login state to the profile, and shuts down the daemon process. daemon status should report the daemon is not running. If it still reports running, the daemon is wedged, force-kill it:
pkill -f 'openbrowser.*daemon' || true
If your skill invocation can fail mid-workflow (network error, assertion failure, CDP timeout), guarantee cleanup with a shell trap so the browser is never left orphaned:
trap 'openbrowser-ai daemon stop >/dev/null 2>&1 || true' EXIT
# ... openbrowser-ai -c calls here ...
Do not rely on the idle timeout. Do not call done() as a substitute, done() only marks the task complete inside the agent loop, it does not close the browser.

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the
same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
