At a glance
A skill your agent uses when reviewing templates, rendered HTML, or shared components related to Set text direction for RTL languages.

What it does
Direction Attribute is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when reviewing templates, rendered HTML, or shared components related to Set text direction for RTL languages. Validate the final browser-facing markup, not just the source framework abstraction.
Its SKILL.md is about 530 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/rule.md`).
The repository describes itself as: 🗂 The essential checklist for modern web development, for humans and AI agents. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Reviewing templates
- Shared components related to Set text direction for RTL languages
Example prompts
- “/direction-attribute”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e8d14d0. 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.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
frontendchecklist.io
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
Direction Attribute loads about 534 tokens when it runs, and up to ~4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 219 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

Set text direction for RTL languages
Without proper dir attributes, RTL text displays incorrectly, UI elements appear backwards, and screen readers announce content in the wrong order.
Quick Reference
- Set
dir="rtl"on<html>for Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Urdu - Use
dir="auto"for user-generated content - Combine with CSS logical properties (inline-start, inline-end)
- Test UI mirroring for navigation, icons, and layouts
- Use bidi isolation such as
<bdi>for inline mixed-direction user content
Check
Verify that this HTML document uses the appropriate dir attribute to indicate text direction for right-to-left languages like Arabic, Hebrew, or mixed content. Check user-generated inline text for dir="auto" or bidi isolation where names, handles, or snippets mix writing directions.
Fix
Add the dir attribute to the html element or specific elements with values 'ltr' (left-to-right), 'rtl' (right-to-left), or 'auto' for automatic detection. Use <bdi> or equivalent bidi isolation for mixed-direction inline content.
Explain
Explain how the dir attribute helps browsers and screen readers properly display and navigate text in different writing directions.
Code Review
Review templates, server-rendered HTML, and shared components that output markup related to Set text direction for RTL languages. Flag exact elements, attributes, and routes where the rendered HTML violates the rule. Inspect user-generated inline content, not only page-level locale wrappers.
