Accessibility Belongs In The Prototype
Prototype contrast, keyboard flow, labels, responsive width, and reduced motion early so accessibility is not a cleanup chore.
- 1Name the job before naming the tool.
- 2Write the smallest useful scope the agent can finish.
- 3Run the result as a user, not as a fan of the tool.
- 4Inspect the diff, data access, and failure path before sharing.
Use this as the working prompt or checklist for the lesson.
Audit the prototype for contrast, focus states, keyboard path, text overflow at 320px, and motion reduction. Return fixes as design requirements.- What should the user be able to do when this is finished?
- What data should the app or agent never expose?
- What test proves the change works?
- What rollback path exists if the output is wrong?
