Duplicate Id Aria

Testing & Quality
duplicate-id-aria

Duplicate Id Aria 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 Use unique IDs for ARIA references. 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/duplicate-id-aria/SKILL.md and all supporting files. Report provenance, permissions, scripts, dependencies, and security risks. Propose an exact installation into .agents/skills/duplicate-id-aria, 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.

Use unique IDs for ARIA references

When ARIA attributes point to duplicate IDs, assistive technologies may read the wrong label or description, providing misleading information to the user.

Quick Reference

  • Ensure IDs referenced by ARIA attributes (e.g., aria-labelledby) are unique
  • Avoid duplicate IDs that lead to ambiguous accessibility relationships
  • Verify that ARIA controls correctly target their intended elements

Check

Identify elements where an ARIA attribute references an id that appears multiple times in the DOM.

Fix

Ensure all elements referenced by ARIA attributes have unique IDs and update the references accordingly.

Explain

Explain how unique IDs are essential for establishing reliable relationships between ARIA attributes and their targets.

Code Review

Review the rendered markup and interactive states that affect Use unique IDs for ARIA references. 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.
