Hercules Agent Adds Accessibility Testing as an Open-Source Skill

Hacker News

Hey HN, We’re excited to share a new skill added to *Hercules*, our open-source agent for automated testing. Starting today, Hercules can now perform *Accessibility Testing*, helping developers check their web applications against *WCAG 2.0, 2.1, and 2.2 standards*. Here’s what it offers: - Automated scans for accessibility compliance - Detailed insights and suggestions for fixes - Super cost-efficient (scans can be done for less than a dollar) Our goal is to make accessibility testing more accessible (pun intended!) for developers and teams. This feature is built to enable engineers to integrate accessibility checks into their workflows without needing specialized expertise or large budgets. We’d love feedback from the community—whether you’re interested in contributing, testing it out, or just want to discuss how we can collectively make the web more inclusive.

Demo Video: https://youtu.be/s_LaHIuurVQ?si=GL12D1Vz2xQXEvQ_ Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
