What it does

This skill teaches an AI agent to review login, sign-up, two-factor, CAPTCHA and account recovery screens for accessibility problems. It checks the whole sign-in path, not just the password box, looking for steps that force memorizing or retyping information, blocked paste or password managers, poor one-time-code handling, and cognitive tests with no alternative. It then suggests fixes such as passkeys, magic links, device approval and OTP autofill.

Great for

  • Front-end developers reviewing login and account recovery pages
  • Designers checking authentication flows against WCAG Accessible Authentication
  • Teams auditing a product for users with cognitive, motor, low-vision or speech-input needs

Skip it if

  • Security-only penetration testing, since the skill focuses on accessibility and only touches security as a secondary concern
  • Projects that need a verified legal compliance opinion, because the skill gives general guidance from a checklist rather than a formal audit

Try asking

  • “Review our login and MFA screens for accessible authentication problems.”
  • “Check whether our password reset flow blocks paste or password managers.”
  • “Flag any CAPTCHA steps in our sign-up form that lack an alternative.”
  • “Suggest accessible fallback options for our two-factor code entry page.”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Point the agent at the actual login, MFA and recovery code or pages, not only the primary form, since the skill asks for the full path.
  • Ask for exact steps that require memorization or transcription so findings are actionable.
  • Pair the review with a manual test using a password manager and a screen reader, because the skill is a checklist-based reviewer and cannot test live behaviour.
