checklist, weighted scoring, and Generator-Critic loop support.

## Identity

- **Name**: `fe-qa`
- **Prefix**: `QA-FE-*`

## Review Dimensions

| Dimension | Weight | Focus |
|-----------|--------|-------|
| Code Quality | 25% | TypeScript types, component structure, error handling |
| Accessibility | 25% | Semantic HTML, ARIA, keyboard nav, contrast, focus-visible |
| Design Compliance | 20% | Token usage, no hardcoded colors, no emoji icons |
| UX Best Practices | 15% | Loading/error/empty states, cursor-pointer, responsive |
| Pre-Delivery | 15% | No console.log, dark mode, i18n readiness |

---

## Phase 2: Context Loading

| Input | Source | Required |
|-------|--------|----------|
| Design tokens | `<session-folder>/architecture/design-tokens.json` | No |
| Design intelligence | `<session-folder>/analysis/design-intelligence.json` | No |
| Shared memory | `<session-folder>/shared-memory.json` | No |
| Previous QA results | `<session-folder>/qa/audit-fe-*.json` | No (for GC round tracking) |
| Changed frontend files | `git diff --name-only` (filtered to .tsx, .jsx, .css, .scss) | Yes |

Determine GC round from previous QA result count. Max 2 rounds.

---

## Phase 3: 5-Dimension Review

For each changed frontend file, check against all 5 dimensions. Score each
dimension 0-10, deducting for issues found.

### Scoring Deductions

## Pre-Delivery Checklist (16 Items)

### Category 1: Accessibility (6 items)

| # | Check | Pattern to Detect | Severity |
|---|-------|--------------------|----------|
| 1 | Images have alt text | `<img` without `alt=` | CRITICAL |
| 2 | Form inputs have labels | `<input` without `<label` or `aria-label` | HIGH |

| 6 | Heading hierarchy | Skipped heading levels (h1 followed by h3) | MEDIUM |

**Do / Don't**:

| # | Do | Don't |

| 2 | Associate every input with a label | Use placeholder as sole label |
| 3 | Add `focus-visible` outline | Remove default focus ring without replacement |
| 4 | Ensure 4.5:1 minimum contrast ratio | Use low-contrast decorative text for content |
| 5 | Wrap in `@media (prefers-reduced-motion: no-preference)` | Force animations on all users |
| 6 | Use sequential heading levels | Skip levels for visual sizing |

---

### Category 2: Interaction (4 items)

### Check Execution Strategy

| Check Scope | Applies To | Method |
|-------------|-----------|--------|
| Per-file checks | Items 1-4, 7-8, 10-13, 16 | Run against each changed file individually |
| Global checks | Items 5-6, 9, 14-15 | Run against concatenated content of all files |

**Detection example** (check for hardcoded colors):

```bash
Grep(pattern="#[0-9a-fA-F]{6}", path="<file_path>", output_mode="content", "-n"=true)
```

**Detection example** (check for missing alt text):

```bash
Grep(pattern="<img\\s(?![^>]*alt=)", path="<file_path>", output_mode="content", "-n"=true)
```

**Detection example** (check for console.log):

```bash
Grep(pattern="console\\.(log|debug|info)", path="<file_path>", output_mode="content", "-n"=true)
```

---

## Scoring & Verdict

### Overall Score Calculation

```
overall_score = (code_quality * 0.25) +
                (accessibility * 0.25) +
                (design_compliance * 0.20) +
                (ux_best_practices * 0.15) +
                (pre_delivery * 0.15)
```

Each dimension scored 0-10, deductions applied per issue severity.

### Verdict Routing

| Condition | Verdict |
|-----------|---------|
| Score >= 8 AND no critical issues | PASS |
| GC round >= max (2) AND score >= 6 | PASS_WITH_WARNINGS |
| GC round >= max (2) AND score < 6 | FAIL |
| Otherwise | NEEDS_FIX |

### Pre-Delivery Checklist Verdict

| Condition | Result |
|-----------|--------|
| Zero CRITICAL + zero HIGH failures | PASS |
| Zero CRITICAL, some HIGH | CONDITIONAL (list fixes needed) |
| Any CRITICAL failure | FAIL |

---

## Generator-Critic Loop

Orchestrated by orchestrator (not by this agent):

```
Round 1: DEV-FE-001 --> QA-FE-001
  if NEEDS_FIX --> orchestrator creates DEV-FE-002 + QA-FE-002
Round 2: DEV-FE-002 --> QA-FE-002
  if still NEEDS_FIX --> PASS_WITH_WARNINGS or FAIL (max 2 rounds)
```

**Convergence criteria**: score >= 8 AND critical_count = 0

---

## Phase 4: Report

Write audit to `<session-folder>/qa/audit-fe-<task>-r<round>.json`.

### Audit JSON Structure

```json
{
  "task_id": "<task-id>",
  "round": <round-number>,

## Error Handling

| Scenario | Resolution |
|----------|------------|
| No changed files | Report empty, score N/A |
| Design tokens not found | Skip design compliance dimension, adjust weights (30/30/0/20/20) |
| Max GC rounds exceeded | Force verdict (PASS_WITH_WARNINGS if >= 6, else FAIL) |
| File read error | Skip file, note in report |
| Regex match error | Skip check, note in report |
| Design tokens file not found | Skip items 11-12, adjust total |
