aria-valid-attr-value

Review ARIA attributes, which describe interface elements to assistive technology, for invalid values and missing ID references. Get specific corrections and guidance for checking that element states and labels are communicated correctly.

OriginalShow the original description

Use when reviewing rendered HTML, interactive components, or design-system patterns related to Use valid values for ARIA attributes. Check native semantics first, then inspect keyboard behavior, focus flow, accessible names, and screen-reader output where relevant.

AI rating100/ 100See how to install

Good for

  • Checking ARIA values in interactive components
  • Finding missing IDs referenced by ARIA attributes
  • Reviewing accessibility fixes before release

Overview

What it does

ARIA attributes tell assistive technology about an element’s state, label, and other information. This skill examines rendered HTML to check whether attribute values match the formats required by the specification, such as booleans, integers, or lists of IDs. It identifies values such as yes/no where true/false is required, finds missing IDs referenced by aria-labelledby or aria-owns, and explains how to correct them.

When it helps

Use it when reviewing accessibility in buttons, expandable panels, and shared interface components. It checks native HTML semantics first, then examines keyboard interaction, focus movement, and screen-reader output where relevant. It also helps you organize the affected elements and the checks needed to verify each correction.

Example requests

  • “Check the ARIA attribute values in this expandable panel and fix any values in the wrong format.”
  • “Check whether the IDs referenced by aria-labelledby exist, and explain how to verify the result using the browser’s accessibility tools.”

Clear instructionsIs it clear when to use it and what it does?
AGoodThe material explicitly identifies rendered HTML reviews and ARIA attribute values as the context and inspection target.
Concrete stepsAre steps, inputs, outputs, and examples spelled out?
AGoodBoolean and ID checks, correction guidance, and reporting of affected elements and verification methods are specified.
SafetyAre sending data, deleting files, and running commands disclosed?
AGoodThe scope is checking and correcting attribute values; no external transmission or deletion operations are described.
Easy setupDoes it need few tools or API keys, and are they documented?
AGoodVerification uses browser accessibility tools or assistive technology; no dedicated service or API key is specified.

Use valid values for ARIA attributes

Invalid attribute values cause ARIA properties to be ignored or misinterpreted by assistive technologies, leading to a broken or confusing user experience.

Quick Reference

  • Ensure ARIA attribute values (like aria-expanded="true") are valid
  • Avoid using "yes/no" where "true/false" is required
  • Check that IDs referenced in aria-labelledby or aria-owns actually exist

Check

Validate that all ARIA attribute values conform to the allowed types (boolean, integer, ID list, etc.).

Fix

Correct any invalid ARIA attribute values to match the expected format defined in the ARIA specification.

Explain

Explain why precise attribute values are necessary for browsers to correctly communicate element states to assistive technology.

Code Review

Review the rendered markup and interactive states that affect Use valid values for ARIA attributes. Flag exact elements, roles, labels, focus behavior, or keyboard interactions that violate the rule, and note how to verify the fix with browser accessibility tooling or assistive tech.
