+# Accessibility
+
+This statement covers **www.getcrosscode.dev** — the landing page, the docs, and the
+sign-in, join, and device pages. It does not cover the `crosscode` CLI, the daemon, or the
+MCP server, which are terminal programs and inherit whatever your terminal and screen
+reader already do.
+
+## The standard we aim at
+
+**WCAG 2.2, level AA.** That is what we test against and what we fix to.
+
+## Where we actually are
+
+**Partially conformant.** Every page passes the automated checks described below, and the
+checks we could run by hand pass too. We have not run this site with a screen reader end
+to end, so we cannot claim full conformance, and we are not going to claim it.
+
+What we have verified, on the landing page, all twelve docs pages, and the sign-in,
+sign-up, join, and device pages — in the case of the last four, in every state they can
+render, including their error states:
+
+- No `axe-core` violations at WCAG 2.2 AA, plus axe's best-practice rules, in a real
+  browser and in the test suite.
+- Every page on the site, including the password-reset and CLI-login pages, has a skip
+  link that points at its `<main>`. Every page scanned has one `<h1>` and heading levels
+  that do not skip.
+- All text meets 4.5:1 contrast (3:1 for large text) against the background actually
+  composited behind it. Interactive control borders — input boxes, button outlines —
+  meet 3:1.
+- No horizontal scrolling at a 320px-wide viewport, or at 200% zoom.
+- Every clickable target is at least 24×24px, except links sitting inside a sentence,
+  which WCAG exempts.
+- Tab order follows the document order. There are no positive `tabindex` values and no
+  focus traps. Focus is drawn as a 2px white outline, which is 21:1 against the page.
+- Form fields have real labels. Sign-in and password-reset errors are announced through a
+  live region rather than being written into a hidden element, and the fields are marked
+  `aria-invalid` when a submission fails. Errors are conveyed in words, not by colour.
+- The animated diagram on the landing page has a Pause button and stops entirely under
+  `prefers-reduced-motion`.
+
+## Known limitations
+
+These are real, and we would rather list them than let you find them.
+
+1. **No screen reader pass.** We checked the accessibility tree the browser exposes to
+   assistive technology, which is what a screen reader reads from, but we have not driven
+   the site with VoiceOver, NVDA, or JAWS from start to finish. Something can be correct
+   in the tree and still be awkward to hear.
+2. **No pass by a disabled user, and no third-party audit.** Everything below was done by
+   the person who wrote the site.
+3. **One theme.** The site is dark only. There is no light theme, and we have not tested
+   Windows High Contrast / `forced-colors` mode at all.
+4. **Code blocks have no name.** Wide code samples scroll sideways and are keyboard
+   focusable so you can scroll them with the arrow keys, but they announce as an unnamed
+   region rather than "code sample, bash".
+5. **The sign-in journey was tested as markup, not as a journey.** GitHub sign-in cannot
+   complete yet (see the [limitations page](/docs/limitations.html)), so the signed-in,
+   terminal-bound, and invite-accepted screens were audited as the markup those states
+   render, not by walking through them for real.
+6. **Automated testing finds a minority of problems.** `axe-core` detects perhaps a third
+   to a half of WCAG failures. Zero violations means zero violations of the rules it can
+   check, not zero problems.
+7. **Two pages were only checked structurally.** `/auth/reset.html` and `/auth/cli.html`
+   build themselves from scripts that need live credentials to run at all, so they were
+   checked for skip link, language, and title, and their form markup matches the sign-in
+   form that was scanned — but they have not been through `axe-core` as rendered.
+8. **We do not target level AAA**, and there is no plan to.
+
+## Tell us about a barrier
+
+Email **support@getcrosscode.dev**. Say what page you were on, what you were trying to
+do, and what you use — the browser, the screen reader, the magnification, whatever is
+relevant. A description of what went wrong is enough; you do not need to know which WCAG
+criterion it was.
+
+**What happens then:**
+
+- We acknowledge within **5 working days**.
+- If the barrier stops you installing Crosscode or signing in, we aim to fix it or give
+  you a working alternative within **30 days**, and tell you if that is going to slip.
+- Anything else goes on the list. We will tell you whether it is queued or declined, and
+  why, rather than leaving you without an answer.
+
+Crosscode is a one-person, pre-1.0 project. That is not an excuse for a barrier, but it is
+the reason the promise above is 5 days and 30 days rather than something faster.
+
+## How this was assessed
+
+- **Last assessed:** 6 August 2026.
+- **Assessed by:** {{PROVIDER_NAME}}, self-assessment.
+- **Automated tool:** `axe-core` 4.13, run at tags `wcag2a`, `wcag2aa`, `wcag21a`,
+  `wcag21aa`, `wcag22aa` and `best-practice`. Run two ways: in a real Chromium browser
+  against every built page, and in the repository's test suite (`apps/docs-site/src/a11y.test.ts`)
+  against every page and every state the sign-in, join, and device pages can render. The
+  suite runs on every `pnpm test`, so a regression fails the build rather than waiting for
+  the next audit.
+- **Manual checks:** contrast computed from the browser's own resolved colours against the
+  composited background, for every text node on every page; reflow at a 320px viewport and
+  at 200% zoom; target sizes measured from live layout; tab order and focus styling read
+  from the DOM and the stylesheet; the accessibility tree inspected on the sign-in, join,
+  and device pages.
+- **Not done:** screen reader testing, `forced-colors` testing, and any testing with
+  assistive technology other than the browser's own accessibility tree.
+
+The next assessment is due whenever the site's markup changes materially, and the
+regression suite runs in the meantime.
+
+## Before this takes effect
+
+Fill these in:
+
+- `{{PROVIDER_NAME}}` — the legal name of the individual who publishes Crosscode, used
+  above under "Assessed by".
