# WCAG Audit Patterns
Comprehensive guide to auditing web content against WCAG 2.2 guidelines with actionable remediation strategies.
## Use this skill when
- Conducting accessibility audits
- Fixing WCAG violations
- Implementing accessible components
- Preparing for accessibility lawsuits
- Meeting ADA/Section 508 requirements
- Achieving VPAT compliance
## Do not use this skill when
- You need legal advice or formal certification
- You only want a quick automated scan without manual verification
- You cannot access the UI or source for remediation work
## Instructions
1. Run automated scans (axe, Lighthouse, WAVE) to collect initial findings.
2. Perform manual checks (keyboard navigation, focus order, screen reader flows).
3. Map each issue to a WCAG criterion, severity, and remediation guidance.
4. Re-test after fixes and document residual risk and compliance status.
Refer to `resources/implementation-playbook.md` for detailed patterns, checklists, and templates.
## Safety
- Avoid claiming legal compliance without expert review.
- Keep evidence of test steps and results for audit trails.
## Resources
- `resources/implementation-playbook.md` for detailed patterns, checklists, and templates.
## Limitations
- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
- Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
