MCP Accessibility Scanner Tools (42)
scan_page
Performs a comprehensive accessibility scan on the current page using Axe-core.
audit_site
Crawls and scans multiple internal pages, then aggregates violations across the site.
scan_page_matrix
Runs Axe scans on the same page across viewport/media/zoom variants and compares deltas against baseline.
audit_keyboard
Audits real keyboard focus behavior by pressing Tab (and optional Shift+Tab) with practical heuristics.
audit_screen_reader
Audits what a screen reader actually announces, using the browser's own accessibility tree (`page.ariaSnapshot`) plus element geometry. No screen reader is installed or driven; this is a static reading of the exposed tree.
