+# Accessibility requirements and checks
+
+Apply these checks to changed surfaces. WCAG 2.2 AA is the default target;
+this focused checklist is not a complete conformance assessment. Honor the
+actual criterion's scope and exceptions rather than inventing stricter legal
+claims. House recommendations are labeled separately.
+
+| ID | Requirement | Verification and qualification |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| A11Y-01 | Ordinary text contrast at least 4.5:1; qualifying large text at least 3:1. | Measure actual foreground/background pairs in applicable states. Large text is at least 18pt, or 14pt bold (approximately 24/18.67 CSS px). Account for images/gradients behind text. Respect criterion exceptions; do not round a failing ratio upward. |
+| A11Y-02 | Visual information required to identify controls, states, and meaningful graphics meets applicable 3:1 contrast against adjacent colors. | Inspect essential boundaries, indicators, and authored focus cues. Decorative borders and every hover color difference are not automatically subject to this rule. |
+| A11Y-03 | Meaning must not depend on color alone. | Pair errors, status, chart distinctions, and selection with text, shape, pattern, or another appropriate cue. |
+| A11Y-04 | Pointer targets meet 24 × 24 CSS px or a valid criterion exception. | Measure the hit region, not the icon. For undersized targets using the spacing exception, centered 24px-diameter circles must not intersect another target or another undersized target's circle. Inline text links and other documented exceptions exist. A 44 × 44 target is a house touch recommendation, not the AA minimum. |
+| A11Y-05 | All functionality is keyboard operable except genuinely path-dependent input; no keyboard trap. Focus is visible and not entirely hidden by author-created content. | Complete the primary flow with keyboard input and check sticky headers, banners, overlays, order, and visible focus. Prefer fully unobscured focus as a house default. Provide non-drag alternatives when required. |
+| A11Y-06 | Semantic structure, accessible names, and appropriate role/state/value. | Prefer links for navigation and buttons for actions. Check landmarks, heading hierarchy, labels, meaningful image alternatives, decorative image treatment, and programmatic errors/status. Do not add ARIA where native semantics suffice. |
+| A11Y-07 | Ordinary vertically scrolling content reflows at 320 CSS px without lost information/functionality or two-dimensional page scrolling. | Test narrow width and zoom. Genuine two-dimensional content such as a data table/map may have an appropriately contained scrolling region. Do not conceal required content to pass. Also check text resizing to 200% without loss. |
+| A11Y-08 | Content remains usable with WCAG text-spacing overrides. | Apply line height 1.5 times font size, paragraph spacing 2 times, letter spacing 0.12 times, and word spacing 0.16 times where applicable. These are override resilience checks, not required authored typography values. |
+| A11Y-09 | Dialogs follow an appropriate accessible interaction pattern. | For a modal: sensible initial focus, Tab/Shift+Tab contained inside, Escape dismissal, accessible name, inert background, and focus restored to the trigger or logical successor. A nonmodal banner should not trap focus. |
+| A11Y-10 | Motion does not prevent access; respect reduced motion as a house requirement. | Check reduced-motion behavior; preserve state meaning without movement. Apply relevant pause/stop/hide and flashing criteria to moving or flashing content. |

+# Design principles as operating rules
+
+These are contextual heuristics with concrete checks. The implementations
+below are this skill's application of the linked principles. They are not
+claims that a psychological law prescribes an exact component or pixel value.
+
+## UX-01 — Familiar behavior (SHOULD)
+
+**Applies:** navigation, controls, and changes to an established interface.
+**Behavior:** reuse familiar control semantics, labels, and platform
+conventions. Preserve established product patterns unless changing them
+solves a demonstrated problem.
+**Check:** walk the same task before and after the change; confirm users do
+not need to discover a new meaning for an existing control.
+**Exception:** a specialized interaction may be justified by the task; provide
+discoverable instructions and an accessible alternative where needed.
+**Source:** [Jakob's Law](https://lawsofux.com/jakobs-law/).
+
+## UX-02 — Reliable targets (SHOULD)
+
+**Applies:** pointer and touch actions.
+**Behavior:** provide generous actual hit areas, separate neighboring actions,
+and place frequent actions near their task context. Keep destructive actions
+distinct from frequently used actions to reduce accidental activation.
+**Check:** inspect hit areas and pointer travel at narrow and wide layouts;
+exercise adjacent actions with touch or an appropriate simulation.
+**Exception:** dense tools may use smaller controls, subject to the
+requirements in [accessibility](accessibility.md); icon size is not hit size.
+**Source:** [Fitts's Law](https://lawsofux.com/fittss-law/).
+
+## UX-03 — Manage choices (SHOULD)
+
+**Applies:** menus, forms, onboarding, and decision-heavy screens.
+**Behavior:** organize choices by intent; make the next step clear in the
+active task region. Disclose infrequent complexity progressively without
+hiding frequent actions or information needed for a decision.
+**Check:** complete representative tasks; inspect whether grouping or hidden
+options create extra search, backtracking, or unnecessary steps.
+**Exception:** comparison tasks and expert tools can benefit from simultaneous
+options. There is no universal maximum menu length or one-button-per-page rule.
+**Source:** [Hick's Law](https://lawsofux.com/hicks-law/).
+
+## UX-04 — Spacing communicates relationships (SHOULD)
+
+**Applies:** forms, content groups, toolbars, and responsive composition.
+**Behavior:** use smaller gaps within groups than between groups. Keep labels,
+help, errors, and controls together. Use a shared region or border when it
+clarifies a real boundary; not every group needs a card.
+**Check:** examine grouping after wrapping, at narrow widths, and with long
+labels. A field error must not appear to belong to its neighbor.
+**Exception:** a stronger semantic or visual boundary may establish grouping
+without a spacing difference; make the relationship unambiguous.
+**Sources:** [Proximity](https://lawsofux.com/law-of-proximity/),
+[Common region](https://lawsofux.com/law-of-common-region/).
+
+## UX-05 — Appearance carries consistent meaning (SHOULD)
+
+**Applies:** repeated components, status colors, and action hierarchies.
+**Behavior:** give equivalent actions and states consistent treatment. Reserve
+distinct emphasis for meaningful priority or differences; never rely on color
+alone to convey status.
+**Check:** compare repeated controls across routes and themes; confirm equal
+appearances do not imply incompatible behaviors.
+**Exception:** context can change prominence without changing a control's
+meaning; document intentional variants in the component system.
+**Source:** [Similarity](https://lawsofux.com/law-of-similarity/).
+
+## UX-06 — Reduce memory burden (SHOULD)
+
+**Applies:** multistep tasks, forms, navigation, and comparison.
+**Behavior:** keep labels, selected values, requirements, and relevant prior
+choices visible or easily retrievable. Chunk content by meaning.
+**Check:** complete the task without memorizing information from an earlier
+screen; verify returning to a step preserves recoverable input.
+**Exception:** expert shortcuts may supplement a discoverable path. Do not
+derive a seven-item interface limit from a working-memory principle.
+**Sources:** [Miller's Law and its cautions](https://lawsofux.com/millers-law/),
+[Nielsen's heuristics](https://www.nngroup.com/articles/ten-usability-heuristics/).
+
+## UX-07 — Feedback and recovery (MUST)
+
+**Applies:** operations that change state or can fail.
+**Behavior:** show pending, success, and failure truthfully. Explain recovery,
+preserve recoverable input, prevent accidental duplicate submissions, and
+provide cancel or undo when the operation supports it. Match confirmation
+friction to the consequence of an error. Optimistic UI needs failure handling.
+**Check:** exercise slow, failed, and repeated requests; verify the interface
+does not claim completion prematurely or leave the user stranded.
+**Exception:** instantaneous local actions need no artificial loading state.
+An unavailable recovery operation must not be offered as a working control.
+**Source:** [Nielsen's heuristics](https://www.nngroup.com/articles/ten-usability-heuristics/).
+
+## Applying and resolving rules
+
+Prefer measured task outcomes over a heuristic when they conflict. For
+example, moving a destructive action closer may reduce pointer travel but
+increase accidental activation; task safety takes priority. Record consequential
+tradeoffs briefly. Do not use a law's name as evidence that a design works.

+# Site completeness
+
+## Scope and inventory (MUST)
+
+For a new public site or complete public-site redesign, implement the baseline
+below, reusing valid existing pages and integrations. These are this skill's
+delivery requirements; the presence of a row does not imply a universal legal
+obligation. For internal tools, targeted repairs, and prototypes, apply the
+scope rules in [SKILL.md](../SKILL.md). Existing organization-wide privacy or
+support destinations may be linked when they actually cover this service.
+
+Keep a compact inventory: item, route or location, applicability, verified
+content source, implementation, and verification result. A missing business
+fact is unresolved work, not a reason to mark a required page inapplicable.
+Ask for necessary facts while building the rest. Do not publish placeholders
+as finished business or policy content.
+
+| ID | Item and applicability | Required implementation | Acceptance check |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| SITE-01 | 404: every routed site/app | A recognizable not-found view with explanation, useful home/navigation links, and the normal accessible shell where appropriate. Preserve the unknown URL instead of silently redirecting to home. | Open an unknown nested URL directly and by client navigation. Check recovery links; verify HTTP 404 on the serving layer where supported. A static SPA that returns 200 must disclose that hosting limitation. |
+| SITE-02 | About: public-site baseline | A dedicated page explaining who operates the site, its purpose, and relevant factual background, linked from navigation or footer. | Route loads directly; identity agrees with Contact, privacy, and footer. No invented team, credentials, statistics, or endorsements. |
+| SITE-03 | Contact: public-site baseline | A dedicated page with at least one real, owner-supplied contact method. Implement all supplied, intended public methods: email, phone, address, support URL, or verified social links as appropriate. | Check mailto/tel/link destinations and accessible names; display a readable/copyable address or number. Do not invent missing methods or publish private contact details. |
+| SITE-04 | Contact form: when included | Working delivery integration, labels, minimal required fields, useful validation, pending/error/success states, duplicate-submit protection, and privacy information at collection. A working direct contact method is an acceptable alternative when a form is not required. | Use a mock or authorized test destination to verify success and failure; preserve recoverable input on error. Never display success after only a timer, or send live messages without authorization. |
+| SITE-05 | Privacy notice: public-site baseline; also wherever personal data is collected | A discoverable page covering the service's actual processing, with additional notice at collection points. Follow the privacy section below. | Compare text against forms, analytics, embeds, accounts, hosting/logging, and service providers. No generic claims of collecting nothing without evidence. |
+| SITE-06 | Cookie/storage information and consent: according to actual technologies and applicable rules | Inventory cookies and similar storage/access technologies, purposes, providers, and duration. Implement the consent behavior below where consent is required; disclose exempt use appropriately. | Inspect actual requests and storage in a fresh session, after each choice, and after withdrawal. A visible banner alone does not pass. |
+| SITE-07 | Shared footer: public-site baseline | About, Contact, Privacy, applicable policy and cookie-preference links, actual rights-holder name, and dynamic copyright. Use a shared component/configuration so routes agree. | Follow every link from an ordinary page and the 404 view; test wrapping, keyboard access, and year behavior. No empty hrefs or placeholder links. |
+| SITE-08 | Error recovery: where runtime operations can fail | A suitable route/component fallback with recovery navigation, retry only when meaningful, and no sensitive diagnostics in public copy. | Exercise a failed request or rendering failure; the user can recover without losing avoidable input. Do not label permission/network errors as 404s without a deliberate access-disclosure policy. |
+| SITE-09 | Page identity and navigation: all full sites | Accurate page titles, document language, meaningful headings, navigation/current-location cues, and supplied site identity assets. For indexable public pages, add appropriate descriptions and intended canonical URLs. | Test direct loads, reloads, deep links, back/forward, internal links, and titles after navigation. Do not index private content; robots directives are not access control. |
+| SITE-10 | Additional policies and help: business-dependent | Implement applicable terms, refunds/returns/shipping, subscription cancellation, account recovery/deletion, accessibility/help, or jurisdiction-specific business disclosures when the service needs them. Reuse accurate existing policies. | Map each item to an actual business feature or applicable requirement. Verify destinations and promised workflows; obtain missing factual terms instead of inventing them. |
+
+## PRIV-01 — Truthful privacy information (MUST when applicable)
+
+Establish the operator/controller and privacy contact, what data is collected,
+purposes and legal bases, recipients, retention periods or criteria, relevant
+international transfers, and applicable rights and complaint routes. Address
+indirect collection or automated decisions where used. Inform people at
+collection and link the full notice. Use clear language for the audience.
+
+Use verified operational facts and supplied policy decisions; an agent must
+not invent a lawful basis, retention promise, jurisdiction, or legal entity.
+If these facts are missing, prepare a clearly identified draft and list the
+missing inputs. Do not mark policy content ready to publish until resolved.
+A privacy page and banner do not establish legal compliance by themselves.
+
+Source: [EDPB guidance on transparency and individual rights](https://www.edpb.europa.eu/sme/be-compliant/respect-individuals-rights_en).
+Check current applicable requirements for the actual operator and audience;
+this is a content and implementation checklist, not a universal policy text.
+
+## CONSENT-01 — Consent that controls behavior (MUST where required)
+
+Cookie and similar-technology rules arise from applicable ePrivacy/national
+rules as well as GDPR where personal data is processed. Determine applicability
+from the technology, purpose, and jurisdiction; do not assume every site needs
+a banner or that a technology called "analytics" is automatically exempt.
+
+This skill uses the following implementation defaults for consent-required use:
+
+- Block consent-required scripts, embeds, pixels, requests, and storage until
+  the relevant affirmative choice. Cover tag managers and indirect loaders.
+- Offer equally accessible Accept all, Reject nonessential, and Preferences
+  controls in the initial interface. No preselected optional purposes, implied
+  consent from scrolling/dismissal, or visually suppressed refusal.
+- Explain purposes/providers and distinguish necessary use from optional use.
+  Enable only selected purposes, and persist the choice with a policy/config
+  version and appropriate lifetime. Use the minimum consent record needed.
+- Provide a persistent Cookie preferences link. Withdrawal stops future
+  consent-required activity and clears controlled optional storage where
+  possible; handle already-loaded integrations and reload if needed. Do not
+  imply withdrawal reverses earlier disclosures to third parties.
+- If consent storage or the consent manager fails, leave optional activity
+  off while keeping core content usable. Reconcile expired choices and changed
+  purposes before enabling affected integrations.
+
+Verify fresh visit, reject, selective accept, accept all, reload, withdrawal,
+expired/changed preference, and unavailable storage. Inspect network activity
+and storage, not just the controls. Check keyboard operation and narrow layouts.
+If there is no consent-required use, record that finding; do not add tracking
+or an unnecessary consent interruption just to satisfy a checklist.
+
+Sources: [CNIL cookie guidance](https://www.cnil.fr/fr/cookies-et-autres-traceurs/regles/cookies/lignes-directrices-modificatives-et-recommandation),
+[CNIL implementation guidance](https://www.cnil.fr/fr/cookies-et-autres-traceurs/regles/cookies/comment-mettre-mon-site-web-en-conformite),
+[CNIL consent guidance](https://cnil.fr/fr/les-bases-legales/consentement).
+The defaults above are engineering choices supporting consent; validate
+jurisdiction-specific details against current regulator guidance.
+
+## YEAR-01 — Shared dynamic copyright (MUST for current copyright notices)
+
+Derive the current year from a shared date source/component and use it in the
+footer and every other current copyright notice, including shared layouts and
+generated templates in scope. Never scatter hard-coded current-year strings.
+Use the actual rights-holder name. Include a start-year range only when that
+start year is verified; render one year when start and current years match.
+
+Choose an update mechanism appropriate to the stack: request-time rendering,
+client refresh with consistent initial hydration, or automatic static rebuild
+and cache refresh across the year boundary. A build-time date without a
+rollover/update mechanism can become stale. Ensure a readable fallback in the
+supported no-JavaScript experience and avoid server/client timezone mismatch.
+
+Check December 31 and January 1 with a controlled clock, including cached/static
+output and each shared placement. State the timezone used. Do not change real
+publication dates, policy effective/review dates, historical notices, or
+third-party attribution years just because the calendar changed.

+# Verification and completion
+
+## Evidence appropriate to the task (MUST)
+
+For each relevant requirement record its ID or clear name, result, evidence,
+and unresolved limitation. Use the existing project report or a concise
+handoff; a small repair does not need a separate audit document.
+
+- **pass:** observed behavior satisfies the requirement; identify the check.
+- **fail:** observed behavior violates it; identify the problem.
+- **not applicable:** the applicability condition is absent; explain why.
+- **not verified:** needed access, facts, or test capability are missing.
+
+An explicit scope exclusion is recorded as excluded with its consequence;
+it does not turn an applicable requirement into an inapplicable one. Do not
+average failed functional/accessibility checks into a passing aesthetic score.
+
+## Review sequence
+
+1. **Structure and content:** check hierarchy, truthful copy, semantic tokens,
+   route inventory, real link destinations, and relevant component states.
+2. **Rendered behavior:** inspect representative narrow and wide viewports,
+   around layout transitions, with long/empty content, image/font failure,
+   zoom, reduced motion, and supported themes/languages as relevant.
+3. **Interactions:** exercise the main task, keyboard path, submission states,
+   recovery, and repeated actions. Use a mock or authorized test destination
+   for messaging, purchases, and other external effects.
+4. **Site completeness:** for site-level work, verify the inventory in
+   [site completeness](site-completeness.md), including direct unknown routes,
+   Contact, privacy, consent behavior, footer links, and year rollover.
+5. **Project checks:** run relevant existing build, lint, accessibility, and
+   behavior checks. Add tests when they verify consequential behavior such as
+   consent gating or submission recovery; avoid tests that merely match copy.
+6. **Critique and recheck:** correct observed problems and rerun affected
+   checks. Stop when the scoped acceptance conditions are met; do not add
+   repeated redesign rounds just to seek novelty.
+
+Screenshots support visual claims. DOM inspection supports structural claims.
+Keyboard traces support interaction claims. Network/storage checks support
+consent claims. Mock responses do not prove a production delivery integration.
+State those limits instead of treating one kind of evidence as another.
+
+## Completion gate
+
+For implemented work, do not declare the site or feature fully complete while
+an applicable requirement is failed or not verified. Deliver the usable work
+and name remaining limitations precisely. Do not block independent work just
+because one integration or business fact is missing. Publication is governed
+by the user's authorization and project workflow, not this skill.
+
+For reviews or design-only work, completion means the requested assessment or
+design is delivered with findings and limitations; it does not mean the
+underlying product has passed implementation checks.
+
+## Scenario checks for maintaining this skill
+
+Use contrasting scenarios when substantially revising the instructions.
+These describe expected decisions, not a requirement to build all scenarios
+for each frontend task. Distinguish a reasoning walkthrough from an executed
+evaluation with a rendered artifact.
+
+| Scenario | Expected behavior |
+| --- | --- |
+| New public studio site, supplied business facts, no optional tracking | Distinctive direction; working About, Contact, privacy, footer, dynamic year, and 404. Inspect actual data use; no unnecessary consent banner. |
+| Public site with consent-required analytics and a third-party video embed | Inventory both integrations; gate them before consent, permit selective choice, persist rejection, and stop future activity after withdrawal. |
+| Dense internal operations dashboard | Reuse product conventions, preserve frequent controls, include relevant failure/focus/empty states, and adapt genuine two-dimensional data appropriately. Public marketing pages need a scope reason. |
+| Fix one form field in an established app | Preserve the design system; fix semantics, labeling, and related error/layout behavior. Do not launch a site-wide redesign. |
+| New public site with unknown operator/contact/retention facts | Ask for required facts; build independent structure; identify draft policy/contact work. Do not invent facts or claim publication readiness. |
+| Static site with multiple copyright placements | Use a shared year source with a rollover/update strategy; exercise year boundary and cache behavior. Leave policy effective dates intact. |
+| No browser or network-inspection capability | Perform useful implementation/static checks and explicitly mark visual, interaction, or consent checks not verified. |

+# Visual system and interface writing
+
+## VIS-01 — Subject-specific direction (SHOULD)
+
+Ground visual decisions in the product, audience, content, and existing brand.
+For a new direction, describe its composition, type roles, palette roles, and
+one or two subject-specific choices. For an extension, inspect and reuse the
+established system. Do not invent a new brand for a small repair.
+
+Check whether imagery, hierarchy, density, and vocabulary serve the actual
+brief. Visual novelty is not an acceptance test. Cream palettes, dark themes,
+serifs, gradients, rounded cards, and uppercase labels are valid when they
+have a purpose; none should appear merely out of habit.
+
+## VIS-02 — Semantic tokens (SHOULD)
+
+Reuse existing tokens first. For new systems define a compact set of roles:
+
+| Area | Useful roles | Verification |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Color | canvas, surface, text, muted text, action, danger, focus | Check actual foreground/background pairs in relevant states and themes. |
+| Type | display, heading, body, label, data | Repeated roles use consistent size, weight, and line height. |
+| Space | component padding, related-item gap, group gap, section gap | Grouping survives wrapping and long content. |
+| Geometry | content width, gutter, radius, elevation | Width and containment follow content priority; depth signals relationships. |
+| Motion | feedback purpose, duration, easing, reduced-motion behavior | State remains understandable with motion reduced or removed. |
+
+Add a token or variant for a repeated meaning, not every isolated value. A
+small spacing scale based on 4 or 8 units is a possible house convention,
+not a design law. Avoid competing CSS rules that conceal the intended spacing.
+
+## VIS-03 — Typography and reading (SHOULD)
+
+Choose type for legibility, tone, language coverage, loading cost, and the
+existing brand. One family can supply hierarchy; a second needs a clear role.
+Define a coherent scale instead of inventing each heading independently.
+
+House starting points for running prose: about 45–75 characters per line and
+1.4–1.6 line height. Adjust for the actual font, script, size, and content.
+These are preferences, not accessibility thresholds. Controls, data tables,
+and display text need their own metrics. Do not infer leading solely from
+whether a font has serifs.
+
+Inspect actual text, fallback fonts, long headings, and zoom. Avoid clipping,
+fixed-height text containers, and shrinking text to force a layout to fit.
+Use logical alignment appropriate to the language; reserve centered text for
+content that remains easy to scan. Use tabular numerals when numeric alignment
+helps comparison. Establish a fallback if a custom font fails.
+
+## VIS-04 — Composition and restraint (SHOULD)
+
+Give the primary task or message a clear place in the hierarchy. A marketing
+site may benefit from an expressive opening; a work tool may need immediate
+access to data and controls. Use real content to determine layout and density.
+
+Outlines, dividers, labels, numbering, and cards should encode information.
+Number items when sequence or rank matters. Reserve repeated containers for
+content that is meaningfully comparable. Concentrate bold expression where
+it helps the brief, and remove decoration that competes with the task.
+
+Check wide and narrow compositions, long or missing content, image crops,
+and consistent alignment. Choose layout transitions when content needs them,
+then test around those transitions; device names alone do not define breakpoints.
+
+## VIS-05 — Purposeful motion (SHOULD; reduced-motion support MUST)
+
+Use motion to explain feedback, continuity, or a meaningful change. Keep
+non-user-triggered effects restrained. Do not delay access to content for an
+entrance animation. Respect reduced-motion preferences by removing or
+replacing nonessential movement while preserving the information conveyed.
+
+Verify the changed states with reduced motion enabled and ordinary animation
+disabled. Hover may enhance an interaction but cannot be its only entry point.
+
+## VIS-06 — Copy is functional content
+
+Truthful behavior is a requirement; tone guidance is a heuristic.
+
+Name actions by their outcome: "Save changes", "Download report", "Send
+message". Keep vocabulary consistent through the flow, including success and
+error messages. Use audience-appropriate language; technical terminology is
+appropriate when it helps that audience make a decision.
+
+Use concise active sentences and sentence case by default. Errors identify
+the problem and recovery; empty states explain the condition and useful next
+step. Distinguish first use, no matching results, and unavailable data.
+
+Use supplied business facts. Mark sample content as sample in prototypes;
+do not fabricate testimonials, customer counts, response times, team members,
+contact methods, or privacy promises for a finished site. Maintain consistent
+business identity and shared text through common configuration/components.
