项目无障碍透明度、治理和AI辅助包容的开放标准。

正如SECURITY.md定义了如何处理漏洞，**ACCESSIBILITY.md**定义了项目的包容性状态。它是一个人机可读的manifest，通过指标、护栏和自动执行跟踪项目对无障碍（a11y）的承诺。

[!警告] ** ⚠️ 实验性 — 使用前验证**

该项目仍处于实验阶段。本网站大部分内容由AI协助生成，尚未在现实条件下得到充分验证。影响可能因实施地点和方式而有显著差异。

**不要指望仅仅添加一个ACCESSIBILITY.md文件就能让你的数字工具变得无障碍。**它能做的是向开发者传达无障碍的重要性，并明确说明你的开发流程及其如何影响无障碍。

ACCESSIBILITY.md

The open standard for project accessibility transparency, governance, and AI-assisted inclusion.

Just as SECURITY.md defines how to handle vulnerabilities, ACCESSIBILITY.md defines the inclusive state of a project. It is a human and machine-readable manifest that tracks a project’s commitment to accessibility (a11y) through metrics, guardrails, and automated enforcement.

Looking for the Claude Skills approach? If you want to add accessibility guidance to a project as installable agent skills, see the companion repo: mgifford/accessibility-skills (now with evals).

[!WARNING] ⚠️ Experimental — Validate Before Use

This project is still experimental. Most of the content on this site was generated with AI assistance and has not yet been fully validated in real-world conditions. Impacts may vary significantly depending on where and how it is implemented.

Do not expect that simply adding an ACCESSIBILITY.md file will make your digital tool accessible. What it can do is signal to developers that accessibility matters, and make explicit what your development processes are and how they affect accessibility.

People with direct experience conducting studies on the accessibility impact and cost implications of AI-assisted workflows should be involved before drawing conclusions from this work.

Please share your experience — positive or negative — in the issue queue. Include links and references so claims can be examined and discussed by the community.
