Navigation Accessibility Skill
Canonical source:
examples/NAVIGATION_ACCESSIBILITY_BEST_PRACTICES.mdinmgifford/ACCESSIBILITY.mdThis skill is derived from that file. When in doubt, the example is authoritative.
Apply these rules when creating or reviewing navigation patterns: primary nav, dropdowns, breadcrumbs, pagination, mobile menus, and in-page navigation. Only load this skill if the project contains navigation components.
Core Mandate
Navigation is how users find content. Screen reader users rely on landmark structure to orient themselves; keyboard users rely on predictable tab order and dropdown behaviour; voice control users rely on visible, correctly-labelled interactive elements; magnification users rely on nav that reflows without breaking. Get navigation wrong and everything downstream is harder.
