Audit Accessibility Figma

Organization

audit-accessibility-figma

Deep accessibility scorecard for a single Figma component or component set — state coverage (default/hover/focus/disabled/error/active/loading), focus-indicator quality and contrast, non-color state differentiation, target size, annotation completeness, and color-blind simulation (protanopia/deuteranopia/tritanopia), all rolled into per-category 0–100 scores and prioritized recommendations. Use when the user wants to vet ONE component before shipping it: triggers 'audit this component', 'accessibility score for this button', 'is this component set accessible', 'check the states on this component', 'does my button have a focus state', 'color blind check', 'rate this component for a11y', 'component accessibility scorecard'. Works on ANY Figma plan. For a broad sweep over a whole page/frame use lint-design-figma; for CODE-side (HTML) checks use scan-code-accessibility-figma.

Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
2 bundled files
Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.
Open source
Published by southleft on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Audit Accessibility Figma AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/southleft/skills-for-figma/tree/main/skills/audit-accessibility-figma
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/southleft/skills-for-figma.git /tmp/skills-for-figma
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills-for-figma/skills/audit-accessibility-figma .claude/skills/audit-accessibility-figma

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Audit Accessibility Figma in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Audit Accessibility Figma on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Audit Accessibility Figma is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

audit-accessibility-figma — per-component a11y scorecard

Run a deep accessibility audit on a single component or component set and get a weighted 0–100 scorecard with prioritized fixes. Where lint-design-figma sweeps a whole tree for many rule violations, this skill goes deep on one component: it understands variant axes, classifies the component as interactive vs presentational, and scores each a11y dimension accordingly.

All via use_figma, on any plan — it inspects the real variant tree, fills, strokes, effects, and the component description.

Skill boundaries

use_figma rules — load the official figma-use skill first; it is the full Figma Plugin API reference. Essentials these scripts rely on: plain JS with top-level await + return (no IIFE, no figma.closePlugin(); console.log is not returned), inputs inlined as const at the top of each script, colors in 0–1 range, load fonts before any text op, await figma.getNodeByIdAsync(...), and atomic errors (a failed script applies nothing — read the error, fix, retry).
Tree-wide WCAG + design-system lint → use lint-design-figma.
CODE-side a11y (axe-core over HTML) → use scan-code-accessibility-figma.
Design-vs-code drift → use check-design-parity-figma.

Workflow

Target a component. Set NODE_ID to a COMPONENT_SET, COMPONENT, or INSTANCE id (the script walks INSTANCE → main component → parent set automatically). Leave it null to audit the current single selection.
Set the tap-target minimum. TARGET_SIZE defaults to 24 (WCAG 2.5.8 minimum); pass 44 or 48 for stricter mobile targets.
Run scripts/audit-accessibility.js via use_figma (skillNames: "audit-accessibility-figma").
Read the scorecard. overallScore is a classification-weighted blend of the six category scores. See references/audit-categories.md for each category, its weight, and how to raise it.
Work the recommendations. recommendations[] is already sorted by priority (high/medium/low) with the WCAG SC named. Fix, then re-run to confirm the score moved.

Key rules

Interactive vs presentational is auto-detected from the component name and variant axes. It changes which categories are scored and their weights — a badge is not penalized for lacking a focus state; a button is.
Colors are 0–1 floats. Contrast uses sRGB luminance; color-blind simulation uses Brettel/Viénot dichromat matrices.
Coverage means interaction states for interactive components, and variant-axis completeness (actual variants ÷ expected combinations) for presentational ones.
The audit is read-only — apply fixes with manage-variables-figma / figma-use, then re-audit.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Audit Accessibility Figma AI skill do?

Why use Audit Accessibility Figma on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Audit Accessibility Figma is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Audit Accessibility Figma in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/southleft/skills-for-figma/tree/main/skills/audit-accessibility-figma. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Audit Accessibility Figma?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Audit Accessibility Figma?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Audit Accessibility Figma with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Audit Accessibility Figma AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by southleft under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
