Color and UI
Use this guide to scan a whole palette for risky foreground/background combinations. It is written for practical creative workflows where the final asset needs to be easy to edit, export, document, and hand off.
When This Matters
Color Accessibility Audit Checklist is most useful when the same task repeats across multiple files, teammates, platforms, or publishing slots. A small checklist prevents last-minute guessing and keeps the work tied to the right format, size, shortcut, color role, or prompt purpose.
Recommended Workflow
- Paste every brand and neutral color into the auditor.
- Sort failures by actual UI usage, not only by count.
- Keep a CSV report with the design system notes.
- Update token names when a color role changes.
Common Mistakes
- Treating palette contrast as a one-time task.
- Ignoring neutral-on-neutral combinations.
- Fixing failures by adding too many new colors.

- Name the output clearly enough for another person to understand without opening it.
- Link back to the tool or guide when sharing the workflow with a teammate.
