Use when reviewing templates, rendered HTML, or shared components related to Create accessible tooltips. Validate the final browser-facing markup, not just the source framework abstraction.

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

# Create accessible tooltips

Inaccessible tooltips leave keyboard and screen reader users without important contextual information, creating an unequal experience and potential confusion.

## Quick Reference

- Tooltips must be keyboard accessible (focusable trigger)
- Use aria-describedby to associate tooltip with trigger
- Allow hover and focus to show tooltip, Escape to dismiss
- Ensure sufficient contrast and don't hide essential info in tooltips

## Check

Verify tooltips are keyboard accessible, use appropriate ARIA roles (tooltip), and can be dismissed without moving focus.

## Fix

Implement tooltips with role='tooltip', aria-describedby, keyboard triggering, and Escape key dismissal.

## Explain

Explain the accessibility requirements for tooltips including keyboard access, ARIA attributes, and timing considerations.

## Code Review

Review templates, server-rendered HTML, and shared components that output markup related to Create accessible tooltips. Flag exact elements, attributes, and routes where the rendered HTML violates the rule.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add thedaviddias/front-end-checklist/accessible-tooltips@sha256:d4e70e2c0c6d179f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260529.7c05904, 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.
