How BrisTechTonic Writes Image Alt Text For SEO And Accessibility

What the skill does: Scrapes every image from a page (or accepts a list). Classifies each image's role: informational / decorative / link/button / icon. Writes alt text appropriate to the role (informational → descriptive 100-125 chars no 'image of'; decorative → empty string; link/button → describes destination). Flags image-of-text (recommends replacing with real HTML). Outputs CSV per-image and DOCX prioritised recommendations.

Why it matters: WCAG accessibility compliance — screen readers need alt to communicate the page to visually impaired users. Image-search visibility — Google Images relies heavily on alt text. Page-level SEO — alt contributes to topical relevance signals. Most teams either auto-generate ('Image1.jpg') or stuff keywords. Both are wrong.

What's new: Role classification per image — most SEO tools treat all images the same. Empty alt for decorative images is a feature, not a bug (WCAG compliance). Image-of-text flagging.

Use cases: New page launch. Client compliance audit (WCAG). Image-search visibility push. Post-content-migration audit.

Constraints: 200-400 words, UK English, no em dashes, generic example (e.g. a 30-image service page with no alt text).
