At a glance

A skill your agent uses when reviewing rendered HTML, interactive components, or design-system patterns related to Define proper table headers.

  • Reviewing rendered HTML
  • SKILL.md covers Quick Reference, Check, Fix and Explain, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Interactive components

What it does

Table Headers is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when reviewing rendered HTML, interactive components, or design-system patterns related to Define proper table headers. Check native semantics first, then inspect keyboard behavior, focus flow, accessible names, and screen-reader output where relevant.

Its SKILL.md is about 460 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 Define proper table headers

Example prompts

  • “/table-headers”

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

Table Headers loads about 460 tokens when it runs, and up to ~957 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 175 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~460
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~957

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.

Define proper table headers

Properly defined headers allow screen readers to announce the context for each data cell, making complex tables understandable.

Quick Reference

  • Use <th> for all table headers, not <td>
  • Apply scope="col" or scope="row" to clarify header relationship
  • Ensure every data cell is associated with at least one header
  • In simple tables, prefer fixing header associations before escalating to caption-level recommendations
  • Missing scope="col" on a straightforward header row is often the clearest first fix

Check

Check that all data tables use <th> elements for headers with appropriate scope attributes.

Fix

Convert header cells to <th> and add the correct scope attribute.

Explain

Explain how <th> and scope help assistive technologies communicate the structure of data tables.

Code Review

Review the rendered markup and interactive states that affect Define proper table headers. 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.
