kb-github-a11y-scanner skillA

kb-github-a11y-scanner is agent-read markdown (skill) from community-access/accessibility-agents: Reference data, not a reviewer. Integrate GitHub Accessibility Scanner. Detects configuration, parses scanner issues, correlates with local scans, and tracks Copilot-assigned fixes..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

- Optionally assigns issues to GitHub Copilot for AI-powered fix suggestions and PR creation
- Caches results across runs for delta detection (new, fixed, persistent findings)
- Supports authenticated scanning (login flows, SSO, passkeys via Playwright auth context)
- Optionally captures screenshots and attaches them to filed issues

**Current version:** v2 (public preview)

grep -rl "github/accessibility-scanner" .github/workflows/
```

**Pattern to match in YAML:**
