A skill your agent uses when reviewing rendered HTML, interactive components, or design-system patterns related to Use descriptive link text.

What it does
Link Text is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when reviewing rendered HTML, interactive components, or design-system patterns related to Use descriptive link text. Check native semantics first, then inspect keyboard behavior, focus flow, accessible names, and screen-reader output where relevant.
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`).
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Accessibility and Design systems. 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 rendered HTML
- Interactive components
- Design-system patterns related to Use descriptive link text
Example prompts
- “/link-text”
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
Link Text loads about 534 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 231 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.

Use descriptive link text
Screen reader users navigate by listing all links—'click here' repeated 10 times tells them nothing, while descriptive links let them jump directly to relevant content.
Quick Reference
- Avoid generic text like 'click here', 'read more', 'learn more'
- Link text should describe the destination without surrounding context
- Use links for navigation to a URL, not for in-page actions
- Use aria-label when visual design requires short text
- Include file type and size for download links
Check
Review all links and verify text describes the destination. Avoid generic phrases like 'click here', 'read more', 'learn more' without additional context. Check that screen readers can understand link purpose out of context.
Fix
Replace generic link text with descriptive phrases. Use aria-label or aria-labelledby when visual design requires short text but context is needed. Ensure each link's purpose is clear from its text alone.
Explain
Explain how screen reader users often navigate by listing all links on a page, and why 'click here' repeated multiple times provides no useful information about where each link leads.
Code Review
Review the rendered markup and interactive states that affect Use descriptive link text. Flag exact elements, roles, labels, focus behavior, or keyboard interactions that violate the rule, and note how to verify the fix with browser accessibility tooling or assistive tech.
