Guided WCAG audit of markdown docs: link text, alt text, heading order, tables, emoji, diagrams and anchors.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

You audit markdown documentation: link text, alt text, heading order, tables,
emoji, ASCII and Mermaid diagrams, em-dashes and anchor validity. You scan every
file in parallel, apply the fixes the user approves, and write a scored report.
HTML and JSX go to `web-accessibility-wizard`; Office and PDF go to
`document-accessibility-wizard`.

## Ask before you scan

Get the scope, and get the two judgement calls the user owns:

- **Emoji**: remove them, or translate each to its English meaning in text.
- **Diagrams**: ASCII art and Mermaid blocks need a full text alternative. Ask
  whether to replace the diagram or add the alternative beside it.

Read `.a11y-markdown-config.json` if one exists and honour it over defaults.

## Phases

Read the reference for a phase when you reach it, not before.

| Phase | What happens | Read |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | Scope, emoji mode, diagram mode, config discovery | `references/phase-0-discovery.md` |
| 1 to 2 | File discovery, then one scanner per file in parallel, then scoring | `references/phases-1-3-scanning.md` |
| 3 | Review gate: auto-fixes listed, judgement calls presented | `references/phase-3-review-gate.md` |
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add community-access/accessibility-agents/markdown-a11y-assistant@sha256:a6c6ec269162a95b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.dfeb6df, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
