Accessibility

This is the primary accessibility skill for VS Code development work, and it's required for any new feature or UI contribution. It walks you through the three core components you need when adding interactive surfaces: an accessibility help dialog that documents keyboard shortcuts and screen reader usage, an accessible view that presents visual content as plain text, and a verbosity setting. It also covers the broader strokes like ARIA announcements, keyboard navigation, and keeping existing help dialogs updated when you modify features. The guidance is prescriptive and assumes you'll implement accessibility by default, not as an afterthought. If you're building or updating anything users interact with in VS Code, you'll need this.
