📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughMCQ option fieldsets now receive accessible names from existing question legends and question text. Redundant per-option Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The change improves naming for MCQ groups but may still omit the option letter from an option's accessible name, causing users of assistive technology to receive incomplete option names. Merge should wait until this naming issue is fixed or explicitly accepted; the deprecated CSS declaration is a minor follow-up. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 3 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

optionLabelis created at Lines [173-175] but is never appended tooptionEl,optionCard, ortextWrapper. After removing the explicitaria-label, the wrapping<label>exposes onlyoptionText, so the accessible name omitsdisplayLabel + '.'. AppendoptionLabelto the label subtree before removing the explicit label.Proposed fix
const textWrapper = document.createElement('div'); textWrapper.className = 'mcq-option-content'; + textWrapper.appendChild(optionLabel); textWrapper.appendChild(optionText);Apply the same addition in both checkbox and radio branches.

- Around line 311-316: Update the A18 test to verify rendered accessibility
behavior by mounting single-select and multi-select MCQs in the existing DOM
harness, resolving each fieldset’s aria-labelledby reference, and asserting
every option input’s accessible name includes its visible letter and option
text. Ensure the assertions also detect missing optionLabel attachment; if
rendered tests are unavailable, add exact source assertions for the ID wiring
and optionLabel attachment instead of relying only on broad patterns.

Stylelint 17.14.0 property-no-deprecated clip deprecated property
💡 Result:
The CSS clip property is officially deprecated by the CSS Masking specification [1][2], and Stylelint's property-no-deprecated rule correctly identifies it as such [3][4]. 1. Deprecation Status: The clip property has been deprecated in favor of the clip-path property [1][5]. Authors are strongly encouraged to migrate to clip-path [1][2]. While it remains in browsers for backward compatibility, it is considered a candidate for future removal from web standards [1]. 2. Stylelint Rule: The property-no-deprecated rule in Stylelint (which was added in recent versions) is designed to flag such deprecated properties [3][6]. By default, if you use the property-no-deprecated rule, Stylelint will flag usage of clip as a problem [3][4]. 3. Handling the Rule: - To continue allowing clip (if necessary for legacy support), you can configure the rule to ignore it using the ignoreProperties option [3]: { "property-no-deprecated": [true, { "ignoreProperties": ["clip"] }] } - Stylelint also supports an autofix feature for many properties flagged by this rule, though users should verify the behavior as it relates to specific properties [3][4]. You can find more details in the official Stylelint documentation for the property-no-deprecated rule [3].

Replace the deprecated clipping property.
The CSS clip property is deprecated in favor of clip-path. Replace it with clip-path: inset(50%) and update the assertion at test/a11y-characterization.test.js:339.
Proposed fix
- clip: rect(0, 0, 0, 0);
+ clip-path: inset(50%);📝 Committable suggestion

Summary
Closes #55. The MCQ options fieldset takes its accessible name from the existing question text (and the multi-question heading when that is present). Option radios/checkboxes use the visible label instead of a redundant
aria-label.Also records A16 as closed (PR #62) on the issue map. That number is not on the A18 row.
Changes
aria-labelledbypoints at the question text node, plus.mcq-legendwhen there are multiple questions. The wrapping<label>already exposes the visible option text, soaria-label="Option A: …"is gone (2.5.3). No new copy.Test plan
npm test— A18 characterizationmcq.mdandmcq-2-questions.mdin light and dark: fieldset name matches the question; option name matches the visible text
