So is someone maintaining a Github or a resource that covers the various AI coding agents from an accessibility perspective, suggested config values, tips, etc

@blindndangerous Sorry referring to best accessibility settings for the tools themselves, not accessibility web checking. i.e. turning off animation in Codex or pointers in Claude Code.

@kaveinthran @tayarndt @JeffBishop Sorry referring to best accessibility settings for the tools themselves, not accessibility web checking. i.e. turning off animation in Codex or pointers in Claude Code. I'd be happy to contribute here, but this seems like a different albeit very useful goal.

[blindndangerous@mstdn.social]

@Jage I looked through claudes documentation as to what you can put in that json file, and the three things that I gave you were all that I found. If you find more, let me know.

[jage@mas.to]

@zersiax I do mean the command lines for now. They all seem to have some settings that make them work better with screen readers, such as turning off animations, extra status messages, etc.

[zersiax@cupoftea.social]

@Jage huh. I am looking at the claude -h and not seeing that, I see there is a settings file you can give it, haven't looked at that so maybe in there

[jage@mas.to]

@blindndangerous Sure will do. I just want to put all of this written down somewhere so we have it.

[jage@mas.to]

@zersiax From @blindndangerous Setting these in my claude.json makes things so much better. At least for me. "spinnerTipsEnabled": false,
"spinnerVerbs": { "mode": "replace", "verbs": [] },
"prefersReducedMotion": true. Also Claudio is a tool that adds sounds to Claude CLI. So these are the types of little things I want to compile in one spot.

[zersiax@cupoftea.social]

@Jage @blindndangerous good idea, yeah... I wouldn't have thought to go looking. Most of what these settings do just cut down the clutter a bit which I personally am not super bothered by but hey, it definitely is useful

[jage@mas.to]

@zersiax @blindndangerous Exactly. I think ideally we'd explain what each setting does. Then you can pick and choose what makes the most sense.

[zersiax@cupoftea.social]

@Jage @blindndangerous also whoever owns claudio.click, seems to be down currently at least from Europe

[blindndangerous@mstdn.social]

@zersiax @Jage Yeah, that didn't work for me. Grab it from the github and build it.

[zersiax@cupoftea.social]

@blindndangerous @Jage oh hey, tis a Q thing. ok then...

[blindndangerous@mstdn.social]

@zersiax @Jage Yeah it is. I really like it. Cuts down on spam.

[jeffbishop@mastodon.online]

@Jage @kaveinthran @tayarndt We would love that contribution. You can for sure submit the information on the community-access Github repo and we will get it added to the site...

[zersiax@cupoftea.social]

't hear any sounds happening ...not sure if I'm just not triggering them@blindndangerous@mstdn.social @Jage huh. It's in my settings but I really don

[jage@mas.to]

@zersiax I am also having trouble with it as it currently is, so you're not alone.

[jage@mas.to]

@JeffBishop @kaveinthran @tayarndt OK thanks good to hear. I got the impression this was mostly for accessibility testing agents as opposed to the actual accessibility of the apps, but no reason it can't be both. And if you feel it's too far afield that's fine as well.

[jage@mas.to]

@zersiax So apparently it was trying to load from a sounds directory that never existed. Not sure if that's how it came or if that's what Claude mucked up, but that was the problem for me.

[jage@mas.to]

@zersiax I also disabled 90 percent of the sounds. What i really want is a sound for if it's asking me to approve something and a sound for turn complete, which I now have. I may add a couple more later but I also don't need an entire symphony when I run Claude Code, especially if I use multiple Windows.

[zersiax@cupoftea.social]

@Jage how did you fix it, just give it your own sounds? Or do you have to download it off the GitHub or something?
