#!/usr/bin/env node /** * design-audit.mjs — standalone, MCP-free design audit. * * Opens a page in Chromium (Playwright), screenshots it across viewport tiers, and runs * heuristic checks for the most common web-design defects: horizontal overflow, unsized * media (CLS risk), missing focus styles, small tap targets, missing accessible names, * heading structure, viewport/lang meta, console errors, and an approximate text-contrast pass. * * Usage: * node scripts/design-audit.mjs --url http://localhost:3000 [--out audit-output] * node scripts/design-audit.mjs --file ./index.html * * Notes: * - Heuristic, not a substitute for the /design-review subagent (which also judges taste, * interaction flows, and edge cases). Use this in CI and for a fast local pass. * - Contrast is approximate (nearest opaque background); treat as a lead, not a verdict. * - Set PW_EXECUTABLE_PATH to force a specific Chromium binary if auto-detection fails. */ import { chromium } from 'playwright'; import { pathToFileURL } from 'node:url'; import { mkdir, writeFile } from 'node:fs/promises'; import { resolve } from 'node:path'; const VIEWPORTS = [ { name: 'mobile-360', width: 360, height: 800 }, { name: 'mobile-390', width: 390, height: 844 }, { name: 'tablet-768', width: 768, height: 1024 }, { name: 'laptop-1024', width: 1024, height: 768 }, { name: 'desktop-1440', width: 1440, height: 900 }, { name: 'wide-1920', width: 1920, height: 1080 }, ]; function parseArgs(argv) { const args = { out: 'audit-output' }; for (let i = 2; i < argv.length; i++) { const a = argv[i]; if (a === '--url') args.url = argv[++i]; else if (a === '--file') args.file = argv[++i]; else if (a === '--out') args.out = argv[++i]; else if (a === '--executable') args.executable = argv[++i]; } if (!args.url && !args.file) { console.error('Provide --url or --file '); process.exit(1); } return args; } // Runs inside the page.
