wcag accessibility audit via mcp protocol
Exposes accessibility compliance scanning as an MCP tool that integrates with Claude and other LLM clients, enabling real-time WCAG 2.1 violation detection across web content. The tool operates as a stateless MCP server that accepts URLs or HTML content and returns structured accessibility findings mapped to WCAG success criteria levels (A, AA, AAA), allowing LLM agents to reason about and remediate accessibility issues programmatically.
Unique: Implements accessibility auditing as an MCP tool rather than a REST API or CLI, enabling direct integration into LLM reasoning loops — the LLM can call the audit tool, receive structured findings, and generate remediation code in a single agentic workflow without context switching
vs alternatives: Unlike standalone WCAG scanners (Axe, WAVE) that require separate tool invocation and manual result interpretation, equally-ai-mcp embeds accessibility auditing directly into LLM agent reasoning, allowing Claude to autonomously identify violations and propose fixes
mcp tool registration and schema definition for accessibility scanning
Implements the MCP tool protocol to register accessibility audit capabilities with a standardized JSON schema, enabling LLM clients to discover, understand, and invoke the tool with proper parameter validation. The tool schema defines input parameters (URL, HTML content, conformance level), output structure (violations array with WCAG mappings), and error handling contracts, allowing MCP hosts to enforce type safety and provide IDE-like autocomplete for accessibility audits.
Unique: Uses MCP's standardized tool schema protocol to expose accessibility auditing as a first-class capability, enabling automatic client-side parameter discovery and validation — rather than requiring manual documentation or hardcoded tool definitions
vs alternatives: Compared to REST API endpoints that require custom documentation and client-side schema management, MCP tool registration provides automatic discoverability and type safety across all compatible LLM clients
structured wcag violation reporting with remediation guidance
Transforms raw accessibility scan results into structured JSON reports that map violations to specific WCAG 2.1 success criteria (e.g., 1.4.3 Contrast Minimum), include severity classifications, and provide actionable remediation suggestions. The reporting system organizes findings by impact level and includes references to WCAG guidelines, enabling LLM agents to reason about compliance gaps and generate fix recommendations with proper context.
Unique: Structures accessibility findings as machine-readable JSON with explicit WCAG mappings and remediation guidance, enabling LLM agents to parse violations programmatically and generate code fixes — rather than returning unstructured text reports
vs alternatives: Unlike generic accessibility scanners that output HTML reports or CSV exports, equally-ai-mcp provides JSON-structured findings with WCAG criteria linkage and remediation suggestions, making it natively consumable by LLM reasoning loops
url-based and html content accessibility scanning
Accepts both live URLs and raw HTML content as input to the accessibility audit tool, enabling scanning of deployed websites or local/in-development code without requiring deployment. The tool handles URL fetching, HTML parsing, and content normalization internally, supporting both public URLs and local file paths, allowing developers to audit accessibility at any stage of development.
Unique: Supports dual input modes (URL and raw HTML) with automatic content fetching and normalization, enabling accessibility audits at any development stage — developers can audit live sites, local files, or generated HTML without format conversion
vs alternatives: Compared to accessibility tools that require either deployed URLs or manual file uploads, equally-ai-mcp accepts both formats natively and handles fetching/parsing internally, reducing developer friction
mcp server lifecycle management and client communication
Implements the MCP server protocol to handle client connections, tool invocation requests, and response serialization according to the MCP specification. The server manages request/response cycles, error handling, and protocol-level communication with MCP clients (Claude, Cline, custom hosts), ensuring reliable tool availability and proper error propagation through the MCP transport layer.
Unique: Implements full MCP server lifecycle including connection management, request routing, and protocol-compliant error handling — rather than exposing accessibility scanning as a simple function, it wraps it in a production-grade MCP server
vs alternatives: Unlike simple function libraries, equally-ai-mcp provides a complete MCP server implementation that handles protocol compliance, concurrent requests, and error propagation automatically
accessibility compliance level filtering (a, aa, aaa)
Allows filtering audit results by WCAG conformance level (A, AA, or AAA) to focus on specific compliance targets. The tool can be configured to report only violations at a specified level or above, enabling teams to prioritize fixes based on their compliance requirements and gradually improve accessibility maturity from Level A to AAA.
Unique: Provides built-in filtering by WCAG conformance level, allowing teams to scope audits to their compliance target — rather than requiring manual filtering of results post-scan
vs alternatives: Compared to generic accessibility scanners that report all violations equally, equally-ai-mcp enables level-based filtering to align with specific compliance requirements
