[IMPORTANT] Use TaskCreate to break ALL work into small tasks BEFORE starting — including tasks for each file read. This prevents context loss from long files. For simple tasks, AI MUST ask user whether to skip.

Quick Summary

Goal: Review UI code for WCAG 2.2 accessibility, Core Web Vitals performance, and modern web design best practices.

Workflow:

  1. Identify Target — Use provided file/pattern or ask user which components to review
  2. Scan Files — Read and Grep target files for violation patterns
  3. Check Categories — Accessibility, keyboard nav, forms, animation, performance, touch/mobile, content, dark mode/i18n
  4. Report Findings — Group by file, use file:line format, terse findings, prioritized summary

Key Rules:

  • Review-only skill: finds issues, does NOT fix them
  • Check categories in priority order (accessibility first)
  • Also reference docs/project-reference/scss-styling-guide.md if available

Be skeptical. Apply critical thinking, sequential thinking. Every claim needs traced proof, confidence percentages (Idea should be more than 80%).

Web Design Guidelines Review

Review UI code for compliance with WCAG 2.2, Core Web Vitals, and modern web design best practices. This is a review-only skill -- it finds issues, not fixes them.

When to Use

  • Reviewing UI code for accessibility compliance before release
  • Auditing a component or page for WCAG 2.2 violations
  • Checking Core Web Vitals performance patterns in code
  • Validating responsive design and mobile-friendly patterns
  • Pre-PR UI quality gate check

When NOT to Use

  • Building UI -- use frontend-design
  • Creating design specs -- use design-spec
  • Full UX design process -- use ux-designer
  • Project SCSS review -- also check docs/project-reference/scss-styling-guide.md

Prerequisites

  • Full guidelines reference: references/guidelines.md
  • Project SCSS: docs/project-reference/scss-styling-guide.md (if available)

Workflow

  1. Identify target files

    • IF file/pattern argument provided → use it
    • IF not → ask user which files or components to review
  2. Scan files using Read and Grep tools

  3. Check against categories (in priority order):

    • Accessibility -- semantic HTML, ARIA, labels, alt text, color contrast, focus indicators
    • Keyboard navigation -- tab order, focus trap in modals, escape key handling
    • Forms -- labels, validation, error display, autocomplete, paste not blocked
    • Animation -- prefers-reduced-motion respected, no transition: all, GPU-safe properties only
    • Performance -- image dimensions set, lazy loading, no layout thrashing, virtualization for large lists
    • Touch/Mobile -- touch targets >= 44px, touch-action: manipulation, safe areas
    • Content -- text overflow handled, empty states, responsive breakpoints
    • Dark mode / i18n -- color-scheme, logical CSS properties, Intl.* formatters
  4. Report findings in output format below

Output Format

Group by file. Use file:line format. Terse findings. No preamble.

## src/components/Button.tsx

src/components/Button.tsx:42 - icon button missing aria-label
src/components/Button.tsx:55 - animation missing prefers-reduced-motion check
src/components/Button.tsx:67 - transition: all -> list specific properties
src/components/Button.tsx:89 - div with onClick -> use <button>

## src/components/Modal.tsx

src/components/Modal.tsx:12 - missing overscroll-behavior: contain
src/components/Modal.tsx:78 - no focus trap for modal dialog

## src/components/Card.tsx

[check] No issues found

## Summary

- 4 accessibility issues
- 2 performance issues
- 1 UX issue
- Priority: Fix accessibility issues first (WCAG compliance)

Examples

Example 1: Accessibility review

Input: "Review the user profile component for accessibility"

Action: Read component file, check for semantic HTML, ARIA attributes, label associations, color contrast patterns, keyboard navigation, focus indicators. Report each violation with file:line.

Example 2: Visual polish review

Input: "Check the dashboard page for design best practices"

Action: Scan for animation performance (no transition: all), image optimization (dimensions, lazy loading), responsive patterns (breakpoints, safe areas), typography (line height, max-width), empty states handling. Report categorized findings.

IMPORTANT Task Planning Notes (MUST FOLLOW)

  • Always plan and break work into many small todo tasks
  • Always add a final review todo task to verify work quality and identify fixes/enhancements
