  • {{color_scheme}}: The colors currently used (e.g., "#FFFFFF background, #333333 text")
  • {{target_audience}}: Any specific user needs (optional)

Instructions

  1. Ask for missing context if needed.
  2. Evaluate the provided color scheme against WCAG contrast guidelines.
  3. Identify any elements that fail contrast requirements.
  4. Suggest specific color combinations that meet accessibility standards.
