accesslint-diff

From sickn33

Diff a live page's accessibility violations against a baseline — by default compares uncommitted changes (stash-based), or pass --branch [<name>] to diff against a branch. Reports only new violations introduced, violations fixed, and pre-existing count. Use `scan` for a full audit with no diffing.

The instructions Claude Code reads when this skill runs.

Default branch: !`git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD --short 2>/dev/null | sed 's|.*/||' || echo main`

Report only what changed. Locate; don't fix. If no URL in `$ARGUMENTS`, ask for one.

Parse `$ARGUMENTS`: strip `--branch <name>` if present → branch mode. If `--branch` has no value, use the default branch above. Remainder is the URL.

## When to Use
- Use this skill when the task matches this description: Diff a live page's accessibility violations against a baseline — by default compares uncommitted changes (stash-based), or pass --branch [<name>] to diff against a branch. Reports only new violations introduced, violations fixed, and pre-existing count. Use `scan` for a full audit with no diffing.

## 1. Audit

```bash
PORT=$(npx -y @accesslint/chrome@latest ensure | node -e 'process.stdin.on("data",d=>process.stdout.write(""+JSON.parse(d).port))')
```

**Stash mode** (default — uncommitted changes). Tell the user first: _"Running in diff mode — stashing your changes to capture a baseline, then restoring. Your working tree will be fully restored."_ If `git stash push` fails, warn and exit.

```bash
git stash push -u -m "accesslint-diff-baseline"
npx -y @accesslint/cli@latest "<url>" --port "$PORT" --snapshot accesslint-diff --snapshot-dir /tmp --update-snapshot
git stash pop && sleep 2
npx -y @accesslint/cli@latest "<url>" --port "$PORT" --snapshot accesslint-diff -
