Search Input

Design
search-input

Search Input is an Agent Skill for design published in the thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist repository on GitHub: a SKILL.md instruction file an AI agent can load to do this task.

Use when reviewing templates, rendered HTML, or shared components related to Make search inputs accessible. Validate the final browser-facing markup, not just the source framework abstraction.

How to use this skill

Bring this guide into your coding agent with a prompt tailored to the tool you use.

  1. Open your project in Codex.
  2. Copy and paste the prompt below.
  3. Review files and risks before approving any action.
Prompt to paste
Inspect the Agent Skill at https://github.com/thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist/blob/HEAD/skills/search-input/SKILL.md and all supporting files. Report provenance, permissions, scripts, dependencies, and security risks. Propose an exact installation into .agents/skills/search-input, but wait for my approval before writing files or running scripts.

Copying this prompt does not install or run the skill. Review third-party files before use.

Make search inputs accessible

Search is a primary navigation method—inaccessible search functionality prevents users from finding content efficiently regardless of their abilities.

Quick Reference

  • Use type='search' and role='search' on the form
  • Provide visible or screen reader accessible label
  • Make autocomplete suggestions keyboard navigable
  • Announce result counts to screen readers

Check

Verify search inputs use type='search', have accessible labels, and use role='search' on the containing form.

Fix

Implement search with type='search', visible or aria-label, form role='search', and accessible autocomplete suggestions.

Explain

Explain how accessible search implementations help users find content efficiently regardless of their abilities.

Code Review

Review templates, server-rendered HTML, and shared components that output markup related to Make search inputs accessible. Flag exact elements, attributes, and routes where the rendered HTML violates the rule.
