Implementation Reference

  • Core handler function implementing 'validate_all_accessibility' tool. Runs Axe accessibility analysis always, and WAVE if API key provided. Aggregates results and counts total violations.
    export async function runAllAccessibility(
      url: string,
      options: AccessibilityTestOptions = {}
    ): Promise<AllAccessibilityResult> {
      const results: AllAccessibilityResult = {
        url,
        timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
        summary: {
          tools_run: [],
          total_violations: 0,
        },
      };
    
      // Always run Axe (free, open source)
      results.axe = await analyzeAxe(url, options.axe || {});
      results.summary.tools_run.push('axe');
      results.summary.total_violations += results.axe.violations;
    
      // Optional: WAVE (requires API key)
      if (options.wave?.apiKey) {
        results.wave = await analyzeWAVE(url, options.wave);
        results.summary.tools_run.push('wave');
        results.summary.total_violations += results.wave.errors + results.wave.contrast_errors;
      }
    
      return results;
    }
  • index.ts:248-258 (registration)
    MCP tool registration including name, description, and input schema definition.
    name: 'validate_all_accessibility',
    description: 'Run all accessibility tests (Axe + optionally WAVE if API key provided).',
    inputSchema: {
      type: 'object',
      properties: {
        url: { type: 'string' },
        waveApiKey: { type: 'string', description: 'Optional WAVE API key' },
        wcagLevel: { type: 'string', description: 'WCAG level for Axe' },
      },
      required: ['url'],
    },
  • MCP server request handler switch case for the tool, validates arguments and delegates to runAllAccessibility.
    case 'validate_all_accessibility': {
      const validatedArgs = AllAccessibilityArgsSchema.parse(args);
      const result = await runAllAccessibility(validatedArgs.url, {
        wave: validatedArgs.waveApiKey ? { apiKey: validatedArgs.waveApiKey } : undefined,
        axe: { wcagLevel: validatedArgs.wcagLevel },
      });
      return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }] };
  • Zod schema for input validation of the tool arguments.
    const AllAccessibilityArgsSchema = z.object({
      url: z.string().url(),
      waveApiKey: z.string().optional(),
      wcagLevel: z.string().optional(),
    });
  • TypeScript interface defining options for accessibility tests.
    export interface AccessibilityTestOptions {
      wave?: { apiKey: string };
      axe?: { wcagLevel?: string };
    }
