Aria Labels

Testing & Quality
aria-labels

Aria Labels is an Agent Skill for testing & quality 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 rendered HTML, interactive components, or design-system patterns related to Provide accessible names for all interactive elements. Check native semantics first, then inspect keyboard behavior, focus flow, accessible names, and screen-reader output where relevant.

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/aria-labels/SKILL.md and all supporting files. Report provenance, permissions, scripts, dependencies, and security risks. Propose an exact installation into .agents/skills/aria-labels, 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.

Provide accessible names for all interactive elements

Interactive elements are the core of web navigation; without names, they become 'mystery meat' that users cannot confidently interact with.

Quick Reference

  • Buttons, links, and other controls must have a discernable name
  • Names should be concise and describe the action or destination
  • Avoid generic names like 'Click Here' or 'More'

Check

Audit all interactive elements (buttons, links, widgets) for missing or unhelpful accessible names.

Fix

Add descriptive text content or aria-label attributes to all interactive elements.

Explain

Explain how clear labels on interactive elements improve accessibility and general usability.

Code Review

Review the rendered markup and interactive states that affect Provide accessible names for all interactive elements. Flag exact elements, roles, labels, focus behavior, or keyboard interactions that violate the rule, and note how to verify the fix with browser accessibility tooling or assistive tech.

For full implementation details, code examples, and framework-specific guidance, see references/rule.md.
