At a glance

Reference data, not a reviewer. An agent skill from Community-Access/accessibility-agents.

  • Tasks that involve Accessibility
  • SKILL.md covers Web Severity Scoring, Severity Scoring Formula, Score Grades and Confidence Levels, plus 5 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Kb Web Severity Scoring is an agent skill from Community-Access/accessibility-agents. Reference data, not a reviewer. Compute web accessibility scores (0-100, A-F grades) with severity scoring, confidence levels, and remediation tracking across audits.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Accessibility. The repository describes itself as: Accessibility review agents for Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Claude Desktop. Eleven specialists that enforce WCAG 2.2 AA compliance so AI coding tools stop generating… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Accessibility

Example prompts

  • “/kb-web-severity-scoring”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit decf6ba. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown, pseudocode and yaml).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Kb Web Severity Scoring loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 718 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~48
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Web Severity Scoring

Severity Scoring Formula

text
Page Score = 100 - (sum of weighted findings)

Weights:
  Critical (confirmed, all three sources):   -18 points
  Critical (high confidence, both sources):  -15 points
  Critical (high confidence, single source): -10 points
  Critical (medium confidence):               -7 points
  Critical (low confidence):                  -3 points
  Serious (high confidence):                  -7 points
  Serious (medium confidence):                -5 points
  Serious (low confidence):                   -2 points
  Moderate (high confidence):                 -3 points
  Moderate (medium confidence):               -2 points
  Moderate (low confidence):                  -1 point
  Minor:                                      -1 point

Floor: 0 (minimum score)
Scoring Profiles

Use a profile to tune strictness by context while keeping comparable grade bands:

ProfileIntended UseMultiplier
balanced (default)Standard product delivery1.0
strictRegulated/public-sector releases1.15
advisoryEarly design and prototyping0.8

Apply the profile multiplier to each final deduction after confidence handling.

Formula
pseudocode
page_score = 100
for each finding:
    base = lookup(severity, confidence_level, source_count)  // from table above
    multiplier = 1.2 if confidence_level == "confirmed" else 1.0
    deduction = base × multiplier
    page_score = max(0, page_score - deduction)

The values in the lookup table above are base deductions (pre-multiplier). "Confirmed" findings (validated by all three sources: axe-core + agent review + Playwright) apply an additional 1.2× multiplier.

Example: One Critical finding at confirmed confidence = 18 (base) × 1.2 = 21.6 points deducted → page score 78.

Calibration Layer (v2)

To reduce false-positive inflation and stabilize trends, apply a calibration coefficient by rule family:

text
calibrated_deduction = deduction × calibration_coefficient(rule_family)

Recommended initial coefficients:

Rule FamilyCoefficientRationale
Keyboard/focus1.1High functional impact at runtime
Forms/labels/errors1.05High completion risk for core tasks
Semantics/structure1.0Baseline scoring
Link text/context0.9Higher context variance
Content quality (alt/link clarity)0.85Needs human review more often

Update coefficients quarterly from confirmed outcomes. Avoid changing coefficients more than +/-0.1 per cycle.

Score Grades

Each score, with its grade and meaning.

ScoreGradeMeaning
90-100AExcellent - minor or no issues, meets WCAG AA
75-89BGood - some issues, mostly meets WCAG AA
50-74CNeeds Work - multiple issues, partial WCAG AA compliance
25-49DPoor - significant accessibility barriers
0-24FFailing - critical barriers, likely unusable with AT

Confidence Levels

Each level, with weight and when to use.

LevelWeightWhen to Use
Confirmed120%Validated by all three sources: axe-core + agent review + Playwright behavioral testing
High100%Confirmed by axe-core + agent, or definitively structural (missing alt, no labels, no lang)
Medium70%Found by one source, likely issue (heading edge cases, questionable ARIA, possible keyboard traps)
Low30%Possible issue, needs human review (alt text quality, reading order, context-dependent link text)
Source Correlation

Issues found by both axe-core AND agent review are automatically upgraded to high confidence regardless of individual confidence ratings.

Issues found by all three sources (axe-core + agent review + Playwright behavioral testing) are upgraded to confirmed confidence with a 1.2x weight multiplier. This applies when:

  • axe-core reports a violation
  • Agent code review identifies the same issue
  • Playwright behavioral scan confirms the issue at runtime (e.g., keyboard trap confirmed by actual Tab traversal, contrast failure confirmed by rendered CSS computation)

When Playwright is not available, the maximum achievable confidence remains High (100%). The confirmed tier is additive — it never downgrades findings.

Confidence Drift Guard

Track predicted confidence versus post-triage outcome and compute drift:

text
drift = abs(predicted_confidence_score - observed_confirmation_rate)

Operational guideline:

  • drift <= 0.10: stable
  • drift 0.11-0.20: tune coefficients and source mapping
  • drift > 0.20: freeze profile changes and run rule-level review

Cross-Page Pattern Classification

Each pattern type, with its definition and remediation ROI.

Pattern TypeDefinitionRemediation ROI
SystemicSame issue on every audited pageHighest - usually layout/nav, fix once
TemplateSame issue on pages sharing a componentHigh - fix the shared component
Page-specificUnique to one pageNormal - fix individually

Remediation Tracking

Change Classification

Each status, with its definition.

StatusDefinition
FixedIssue was in previous report but no longer present
NewIssue not in previous report, appears now
PersistentIssue remains from previous report
RegressedIssue was previously fixed but has returned
Progress Metrics
  • Issue reduction: (fixed / previous_total) * 100
  • Score change: current_score - previous_score
  • Pages improved: count of pages with higher scores than previous audit
  • Trend: improving (score up 5+), stable (within 5), declining (score down 5+)
Normalized Trend Metric (Cross-Audit)

When audit scope changes between runs, use normalized change:

text
normalized_score = raw_score - (scope_variance_penalty)
scope_variance_penalty = min(10, abs(previous_pages - current_pages) * 0.8)

Use normalized score for trend charts and use raw score for release gates.

Include these fields in generated score artifacts for reproducibility:

yaml
scoring:
  model: web-severity-scoring-v2
  profile: balanced
  calibrationVersion: 2026-q2
  confidenceSources:
    - axe-core
    - agent-review
    - playwright
  failThresholds:
    critical: 1
    score: 75

This metadata allows deterministic re-runs and audit-to-audit comparisons.
