Give Your AI Agent an Accessibility Skill: Faster Builds, Fewer Legal Risks
AI Engineer · youtube · 2026-11-09
Product engineer and certified accessibility professional Jemima Abu explains why AI agents copy accessibility gaps in their training code—96% of top websites still have accessibility issues. In an informal experiment, adding an accessibility skill to her agent made the same build faster and cheaper. She covers the cost of inaccessible code in users, money and legal risk, then shares a four-step approach: define requirements, audit your codebase, use a design system, and make agents follow the rules every time, plus a lightweight accessibility skill to start with.
