fix(docs): resolve the remaining Mermaid accessibility findings (#3526) - #3705
This repository enforces changelog, release, and label automation for all PRs and issues.
See the organisation-wide Automation Governance & Release Strategy for required rules.
Not closed by this pull request. #3526 lists five findings; four are resolved here and verified, but the fifth needs a decision this pull request does not make (see "Deliberately not done"). #3526 should stay open until that is settled.
Relates to #3492 — the parser gate. mermaid-parse.mjs and mermaid-accessibility-rules.cjs came from that work and are still unmerged, so nothing here depends on them.
Context
Severity/Impact: Medium. node scripts/validation/validate-mermaid-accessibility.js exits 1 on develop, with 7 non-compliant diagrams out of 152. The documentation audit job runs it, so this is a red check that is expected on every run.
Affected: any repository run of the Mermaid accessibility validator.
Not one cause. Four are documentation defects that predate the current validator, and one is a gap in the validator itself.
#3537 was opened to resolve the #3526 findings and the GitHub API reports it MERGED (2026-09-25, merge commit c58d75389). Its base branch was ci/mermaid-parser-gate-3492, not develop. That merge commit is an ancestor of neither develop nor main — only of that leftover stack branch — so none of #3537's three documents ever reached develop. Its stack parent #3494 was closed unmerged, and mermaid-accessibility-rules.cjs, which #3537 says it depends on, is absent from develop. #3401 and #3403 also merged into a non-develop base but share merge commit 642cced9d, which is on develop, so #3537 is the only orphan.
The validator gap is skills/web-design-reviewer/SKILL.md's block-beta diagram. Mermaid rejects accTitle on that type, so #3526 asks for a Markdown text alternative above the fence instead. fix-mermaid-diagrams.cjs already carries the verified list of such types and did nothing with it.
Also in #3537's diff and still failing on develop: docs/CHANGELOG_AUTOMATION.md fenced a YAML front-matter block, which GitHub's renderer does not accept. Removed, and four node labels using Mermaid 10 bracket syntax requoted.
Validator changes in scripts/validation/validate-mermaid-accessibility.js:
A diagram whose type is in the no-accTitle set is satisfied by a Markdown line above its fence. That line may not be a heading, a fence, a horizontal rule, or anything inside an HTML comment.
The type branch runs after the front-matter and ordering checks, so a block-beta with a malformed block is still reported.
getDiagramType now keeps the hyphen in block-beta, which it was truncating to block — the new rule would otherwise never have matched the one diagram that motivated it.
NO_ACC_TYPES and ACC_TYPES are exported from fix-mermaid-diagrams.cjs so the accessibility validator holds the same list rather than restating it.
Report artefacts honour MERMAID_ACCESSIBILITY_REPORT_DIR, mirroring MERMAID_SYNTAX_REPORT. Without it, running the validator rewrote two committed reports and failed the working-tree guard in tests/jest.working-tree-guard.cjs.
Deliberately not done
#3526's fifth finding needs a decision, not a fix.PHASE_2_2_TEST_RESULTS.md is a test-plan document. Its second diagram is the deliberate negative case of a fixture — the heading above it is ## Invalid Diagram (missing accTitle) — inside a ```markdown code sample. All three Mermaid validators already exclude it through '**/.github/projects/**' in their ignore lists, and none reports it. Its fences additionally carry a zero-width space, a second and now redundant workaround. Adding accTitle would destroy the fixture's purpose, so this pull request leaves it alone and the finding should be recorded as not applicable.
Verification
node scripts/validation/validate-mermaid-accessibility.js → exit 0, Total diagrams: 152, Accessible diagrams: 152, Non-compliant: 0. On develop: exit 1, 7 non-compliant.
Full suite: 308 suites passed, 6,698 passed, 3 skipped, 14 todo, 0 failed. Net new failures versus develop: 0.
New CLI suite: 12 tests, running the real validator as a subprocess. Three related suites together: 61 passed.
npx eslint on the two changed/added JavaScript files: exit 0, 0 findings. fix-mermaid-diagrams.cjs reports 114 prettier warnings both with and without this change.
Semgrep p/security-audit and p/secrets: 61 rules run on 3 files, 0 findings.
node scripts/validation/validate-changelog.cjs CHANGELOG.md and changelogUtils.cjs --validate: both pass.
npm run validate:branch-name -- --branch fix/mermaid-a11y-remainder-3526 → valid.
coderabbit review --agent on the final diff: 0 findings. An earlier run raised 2 majors — a multi-line HTML comment being accepted as the text alternative, and the new type branch short-circuiting the front-matter and ordering checks. Both are fixed, with 5 regression tests added.
Manual spot-checks: none needed; every change is content or validator behaviour with an executable check.
Risk & Rollback
Risk level: Low. Documentation fences, one exported constant list, and additive validator checks. The one behaviour change to existing content is getDiagramType, which now returns block-beta rather than block for that type; nothing keys off the old truncated value.
Rollback: revert 6550048a88.
Changelog
Fixed
Diagram Accessibility Audit Passes — Every Mermaid diagram in the repository now meets the accessibility rules, and diagrams whose type cannot carry a title get a written alternative above the diagram instead. (#3526)
CI green; linked issues closed; release notes prepared (if shipping)
Summary by CodeRabbit
Accessibility
Accessibility checks now accept written alternatives above mindmap, Sankey, and block diagrams, which cannot include accessibility titles and descriptions.
The latest changelog reports that all 152 Mermaid diagrams passed accessibility checks.
Documentation
Updated guidance explains how required and optional agent-specification fields are organized.
Clarified issue-priority levels for web design reviews: P1 covers functional layout issues, P2 covers visual issues that degrade the experience, and P3 covers minor inconsistencies.
Improved the readability of web design review tables and clarified the changelog validation flow.
validate-mermaid-accessibility.js reports every diagram in the repository as
compliant, where develop reported seven non-compliant diagrams.
- Re-fence four syntax examples in the accessibility audit report as text. They
illustrate accTitle, accDescr and an init directive; none is a diagram.
- Add accTitle and accDescr to the org-structure example in the 2025-12-11
validation report.
- Drop the YAML front-matter block from the changelog flow diagram. GitHub's
renderer does not accept it, and requote four node labels that used Mermaid 10
bracket syntax.
- Require a Markdown text alternative above the fence for diagram types that
cannot carry accTitle/accDescr, using the list fix-mermaid-diagrams.cjs already
verified against a mermaid 12.0.0 parse. That list is now exported rather than
restated, so the two cannot drift. Three diagrams gain the alternative.
- Recognise the hyphen in a diagram type, so block-beta is no longer read as
block and skipped by the new rule.
- Write report artefacts to MERMAID_ACCESSIBILITY_REPORT_DIR when set, mirroring
MERMAID_SYNTAX_REPORT, so running the validator cannot dirty the working tree.
Adds a CLI test suite that runs the real validator: 12 cases covering the text
alternative, its rejection of headings, horizontal rules and multi-line HTML
comments, the front-matter and ordering checks on a no-acc type, and the presence
checks on types that do accept the statements.

📝 Walkthrough
Walkthrough
The pull request updates Mermaid accessibility validation to support text alternatives for selected diagram types. It adds CLI tests and configurable report output. It also revises agent documentation, a changelog flowchart, a web design review skill, and the changelog.
The validator associates eligible prose above a diagram fence with that diagram. It recognizes hyphenated diagram types, including block-beta and sankey-beta.
Validation outcomes and reports scripts/fix-mermaid-diagrams.cjs, scripts/validation/validate-mermaid-accessibility.js, scripts/validation/__tests__/validate-mermaid-accessibility.cli.test.js
mindmap, sankey-beta, and block-beta require a text alternative and reject accTitle and accDescr. Other diagram types continue to require inline accessibility attributes. Reports identify the compliance method and use MERMAID_ACCESSIBILITY_REPORT_DIR when set. CLI tests cover alternatives, directives, and diagnostics.
Accessibility audit changelog entry CHANGELOG.md
The Unreleased entry reports the Mermaid diagram accessibility audit result and written alternatives for diagram types that cannot carry a title.
Both documents describe how the map groups required and optional frontmatter fields. The agent reference document also removes Mermaid accessibility directives from the diagram.
The flowchart uses standard Mermaid decision-node syntax for its file-existence, schema, and [Unreleased] checks. Its outcomes and flow remain unchanged.

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to f1117
The validator can accept a hidden link definition as a diagram description, which is a narrow edge case. Fix that before merge. The generated report wording for text-alternative diagram types also remains an open follow-up.
Security Architecture Review
Security architecture risk:🔵 Low · up to f1117
The inspected changes keep Markdown inputs as data and do not introduce command execution or elevated privileges. Report writes can now be redirected through process configuration. No introduced security vulnerability was established, but control of that configuration across all callers remains unverified.
Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The concrete new exposure is destination selection for two fixed-name report files and prior-report metadata reads. Its effective scope depends on the configured path and existing process permissions; broader tenant, service, or credential exposure was not established.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — In the inspected path, Markdown controls validation data, not the report directory or executable selection. The new classification branch performs no evaluation or privileged downstream call. Whether an untrusted caller can control the output environment variable remains unresolved.
Resilience and Maintainability Implications
observed — The test helper allocates a unique temporary directory, places its input and both reports there, and removes the directory in a finally block during normal completion or catchable failure. This isolates repeated test invocations from repository reports; cleanup after abrupt process termination is not guaranteed.

Scope. 10 files, +257/-31. Four documentation fixes, one validator rule, one test suite.
Deliberately not done, and why.PHASE_2_2_TEST_RESULTS.md is left alone. Its second diagram is the negative case of a test fixture — the heading above it reads Invalid Diagram (missing accTitle) — inside a fenced markdown code sample, and all three Mermaid validators already exclude the path. Adding accTitle would destroy the fixture. This is finding 5 of 5 on the linked issue and needs a decision, not a patch.
One inherited claim did not survive checking. The linked pull request is recorded as merged, and its merge commit is on neither develop nor main — only on the leftover stack branch it was merged into. Its stack parent was closed unmerged, so the helper module that pull request names as a dependency does not exist on develop. Nothing from that work had reached the target branch. This pull request rebuilds the four resolvable findings from the current develop and takes no dependency on the orphaned code.

CodeRabbit CLI. First run on the diff raised 2 majors: a multi-line HTML comment was being accepted as the text alternative, and the new type branch short-circuited the front-matter and ordering checks so a malformed block-beta would pass. Both were valid. Both are fixed and 5 regression tests cover them. Second run on the final diff: 0 findings.
Points worth a reviewer's attention.
The type branch deliberately returns before the accTitle/accDescr presence checks but after the front-matter and ordering checks. That ordering is the whole fix for the second CodeRabbit finding and is easy to reorder by accident.
getDiagramType now keeps the hyphen, returning block-beta rather than block. Without that the new rule would never match the single diagram that motivated it. It is the one behaviour change to existing code paths, and nothing reads the truncated value.
The type list is now imported from the fixer's exports rather than restated, which is what stops the two copies drifting again.
Not done, by rule: not merged, not approved, no @coderabbitai review posted.

@eleshar, I reviewed 6550048a88742a986388c342e7c58ed68eea833d against d9c27f5a55e6f17b5bcb0ee2db734057acece143. Two findings remain.
1. Markdown separators and setext headings can satisfy the text-alternative rule
scripts/validation/validate-mermaid-accessibility.js, Line 71
The check rejects only the exact horizontal rule --- and ATX headings. It accepts other Markdown horizontal rules, including ***, ___, and - - -. It also accepts setext heading underlines such as ===.
For example, this input passes the new accessibility branch without a text alternative:
***```mermaidmindmap root((X))```
Reject Markdown thematic breaks and setext heading underlines before returning the candidate line. Extend the CLI tests to cover these forms.
2. The validator still duplicates the diagram-type list
scripts/validation/validate-mermaid-accessibility.js, Line 39
It does not import NO_ACC_TYPES. The fixer exports NO_ACC_TYPES, but the validator does not consume that export. The two lists can still drift, contrary to the PR description and review point 3.
Use the fixer's exported NO_ACC_TYPES as the validator's source of truth.
Confirmed scope
The text-alternative branch runs after the front-matter and ordering checks.
The type extraction preserves block-beta and sankey-beta.
PHASE_2_2_TEST_RESULTS.md contains the deliberate negative fixture inside the markdown code sample. Leave that fixture unchanged and keep #3526 open pending the finding-5 decision.
Thanks for the fixture guidance. This was a static review of the specified commits. I did not rerun the reported tests, approve the PR, or merge it.

Learning: In lightspeedwp/.github, .github/projects/active/workflows-consolidation-2026-q3/PHASE_2_2_TEST_RESULTS.md contains a deliberate negative Mermaid fixture under "Invalid Diagram (missing accTitle)" inside a fenced markdown code sample. Do not add accTitle to that fixture, because doing so destroys its test purpose. The Mermaid validators exclude **/.github/projects/** during repository-wide discovery.

The wording tripped CHK_MAX_LENGTH in the changelog quality audit, which made
this pull request the one thing adding a new failure to an otherwise unchanged
Unreleased section. Past tense restored to match the surrounding entries.
…tion
A thematic break or setext underline directly above a fence was being accepted
as the text alternative for diagrams that cannot carry accTitle. Only a bare
--- was recognised, so - - -, ***, ___, = = = and === all passed as though they
were prose. Recognise them all, with regression cases for each.
Final state, after two follow-up commits. Full pull request: #3705
Head is now a1997c059f6efed7d17963df36be4c2763376c77. The two commits after the review comment above:
e8ee2fa95b — the changelog entry tripped CHK_MAX_LENGTH at 276 characters against the 250 limit in config.yml, which made this the one pull request adding a new failure to an otherwise unchanged Unreleased section. Shortened to 186. The changelog audit now reports 0 new failures.
a1997c059f — the last CodeRabbit CLI finding was valid: only a bare --- was recognised as a rule above the fence, so - - -, ***, ___, = = = and === were all accepted as though they were a diagram description. All forms are now rejected, with a regression case each.
CodeRabbit CLI, four runs across the life of this pull request: 2 majors, then 1 major, then 0 findings on the final diff. Every finding raised was valid and none was dismissed.
Checks ona1997c059f: 21 passing, 0 non-success under filter=all, 0 unresolved review threads, mergeable and not behind.
One thing worth flagging to whoever reviews this. The branch was rebased twice by keep-pr-current while it was open, and the second rebase brought in #3680, which restores 66 SKILL.md bodies. Three of those files are ones this pull request also edits — skills/web-design-reviewer/SKILL.md and both AGENT_CREATION.md copies. They survived the rebase without conflict, but the two pull requests were touching the same files at the same time and a third merge could have gone differently. The validator run confirms the result is correct either way: 152 of 152 diagrams compliant, exit 0.
An unterminated multi-line HTML comment can still supply the alternative: walking upwards encounters the hidden caption before any --> and returns it without ever reaching the <!-- opener. In that state both the caption and fence are invisible, yet the validator reports the diagram accessible. Check whether the fence is currently inside an open comment before scanning for prose.
Prevent generic matching from truncating stateDiagram-v2
stateDiagram-v2 still never reaches the new hyphen-aware fallback: the preceding ^stateDiagram\b test matches at the hyphen and returns stateDiagram. This leaves the generated diagram type inaccurate despite the new handling. Prevent generic type matches from consuming hyphenated variants and return the full v2 keyword.
