mcp-generate-instructions
This skill should be used when the user asks to "generate accessibility instructions", "add axe instructions to my repo", "bake a11y into my coding agent", "create copilot-instructions for accessibility", "set up CLAUDE.md for axe", or runs /axe-accessibility:mcp-generate-instructions. It writes or updates agent-instruction files (CLAUDE.md, .github/copilot-instructions.md, Cursor rules, or AGENTS.md) that enforce the Axe MCP analyze -> remediate -> verify workflow, including on-request guided tests.
Install
With your agent
Install OMGSkills skill "dequelabs/axe-accessibility:skills/mcp-generate-instructions" into this agent's normal skills directory: call the OMGSkills MCP get_install_plan tool for your agent and run the script it returns (it installs only the pinned commit and verifies SKILL.md), and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
Manual command
git clone https://github.com/dequelabs/axe-accessibility /tmp/axe-accessibility && ln -s /tmp/axe-accessibility/skills/mcp-generate-instructions ~/.claude/skills/mcp-generate-instructions
From README
Generate accessibility agent instructions Produce agent-instruction files that make a coding agent automatically run Deque's Axe MCP analyze -> remediate -> verify workflow whenever it touches UI. The goal is the same effect as a hand-written copilot-instructions.md: every UI change is checked and fixed against the axe engine before it is considered done. Step 1 — Determine targets Targets and their files: | Target | File | |---|---| | claude | CLAUDE.md (repo root) | | copilot | .github/copilot-instructions.md | | cursor | .cursor/rules/accessibility.mdc (fallback .cursorrules) | | agents | AGENTS.md (repo root) | If $1 specifies targets (claude, copilot, cursor, agents, or all), use them. Otherwise detect what already exists in the repo with Glob (CLAUDE.md, .github/copilot-instructions.md, .cursor/, .cursorrules, AGENTS.md) and confirm the set with AskUserQuestion — default to the files already present, offering to add others.
