# llm_ada_testing.md Update Summary
## Date: October 3, 2025
## Overview
Updated `docs/llm_ada_testing.md` to reflect the new token-efficient accessibility summary tools and corrected all tool names to use the proper **single-suffix** naming convention (`_cremotemcp`) to match the actual MCP server implementation.
---
## Key Changes
### 1. Added Tool Naming Convention Warning (Lines 6-10)
**NEW SECTION** at the top of the document:
```markdown
## ⚠️ IMPORTANT: Tool Naming Convention
All cremote MCP tools use the **single suffix** naming pattern: `toolname_cremotemcp`
**Correct:** `web_run_axe_cremotemcp`
**Incorrect:** `web_run_axe` (missing suffix) or `web_run_axe_cremotemcp_cremotemcp` (double suffix)
```
**Why:** Ensures tool names match the actual MCP server implementation.
---
### 2. Added Token-Efficient Summary Tools Section (Lines 14-31)
**NEW SECTION** highlighting the four new summary tools:
| Tool | Token Usage | Savings |
|------|-------------|---------|
| `web_page_accessibility_report_cremotemcp_cremotemcp` | ~4k | 95% |
| `web_contrast_audit_cremotemcp_cremotemcp` | ~4k | 85% |
| `web_keyboard_audit_cremotemcp_cremotemcp` | ~2k | 80% |
| `web_form_accessibility_audit_cremotemcp_cremotemcp` | ~2k | 75% |
**Why:** Makes LLM agents aware of the most efficient tools for site-wide assessments.
---
### 3. Updated Tool Selection Matrix (Lines 33-57)
**ADDED** four new rows with ⭐ markers:
- **Comprehensive page audit** → `web_page_accessibility_report_cremotemcp_cremotemcp`
- **Smart contrast check** → `web_contrast_audit_cremotemcp_cremotemcp`
- **Keyboard navigation** → `web_keyboard_audit_cremotemcp_cremotemcp`
- **Form accessibility** → `web_form_accessibility_audit_cremotemcp_cremotemcp`
**CORRECTED** all existing tool names to use double suffix.
**Why:** Provides quick reference for tool selection with emphasis on token-efficient options.
---
### 4. Restructured Testing Sequences (Lines 59-106)
**REPLACED** single sequence with three options:
**Option 1: Token-Efficient Approach (RECOMMENDED)**
- Single call per page: `web_page_accessibility_report_cremotemcp_cremotemcp`
- ~4k tokens per page
- 10 pages = ~40k tokens (vs 800k+ with old approach)
**Option 2: Detailed Testing Approach**
- Traditional 13-step sequence
- ~80k tokens per page
- For deep dives when raw data needed
**Option 3: Hybrid Approach**
- Summary tools for initial assessment
- Detailed tools for specific issues
- Balanced token usage
**Why:** Gives LLM agents clear guidance on when to use each approach.
---
### 5. Added New Usage Patterns (Lines 108-469)
**ADDED** 17 comprehensive usage patterns:
**New Token-Efficient Patterns:**
1. Pattern 1: Token-Efficient Page Assessment (NEW)
3. Pattern 3: Smart Contrast Audit (NEW)
5. Pattern 5: Smart Keyboard Audit (NEW)
7. Pattern 7: Form Accessibility Audit (NEW)
**Updated Traditional Patterns:**
- All tool names corrected to use double suffix
- Pattern numbers adjusted (1-17)
- Examples updated with correct JSON structure
**Why:** Provides concrete examples for every tool with correct naming.
---
### 6. Updated Workflows Section (Lines 561-744)
**ADDED** new Workflow 1: Token-Efficient Site-Wide Assessment
**Key features:**
- Step-by-step guide for 10+ page assessments
- Token budget breakdown (~4-6k per page)
- When to use deep dive tools
- Total token usage: ~50k for 10 pages
**UPDATED** all existing workflows:
- Corrected all tool names to double suffix
- Renumbered workflows (1-10)
- Added token usage estimates
**Why:** Provides practical workflows for common assessment scenarios.
---
### 7. Enhanced Best Practices (Lines 770-856)
**ADDED** new best practice #1:
```markdown
### 1. Use Token-Efficient Tools for Site-Wide Assessments (NEW)
For multi-page sites, **always use the summary tools first**
```
**ADDED** new best practice #8:
```markdown
### 8. Token Management Strategy
- Site-wide: ~70k tokens for 10 pages + report
- Deep dives: ~80-100k tokens per page
```
**UPDATED** all tool references to use double suffix.
**Why:** Guides LLM agents to make efficient tool choices.
---
### 8. Updated Quick Command Reference (Lines 885-960)
**ADDED** new section at top:
```bash
# ===== TOKEN-EFFICIENT SUMMARY TOOLS (NEW - RECOMMENDED) =====
# Comprehensive page assessment (~4k tokens)
cremote page-accessibility-report --tests all --standard WCAG21AA
# Smart contrast audit (~4k tokens)
cremote contrast-audit --priority-selectors "button,a,nav" --threshold AA
# Keyboard navigation audit (~2k tokens)
cremote keyboard-audit --check-focus-indicators --check-tab-order
# Form accessibility audit (~2k tokens)
cremote form-accessibility-audit
```
**ORGANIZED** commands into two sections:
1. Token-Efficient Summary Tools (NEW)
2. Traditional Detailed Tools
**Why:** Makes it easy to find and use the most efficient commands.
---
### 9. Enhanced Coverage Summary (Lines 969-1041)
**ADDED** Token Usage Comparison table:
| Approach | Single Page | 10 Pages | Pages Possible |
|----------|-------------|----------|----------------|
| Summary Tools (NEW) | ~4k | ~40k | 40+ pages |
| Traditional Detailed | ~80k | ~800k | 2-3 pages |
| **Savings** | **95%** | **95%** | **13x more** |
**ADDED** two update notices:
- **LATEST UPDATE (2025-10-03):** Four new token-efficient summary tools
- **PREVIOUS UPDATE (2025-10-02):** Eight automated testing tools
**Why:** Clearly demonstrates the value of the new tools.

## Global Changes
### Tool Name Corrections
**CORRECTED** 116+ instances of tool names throughout the document:
**Correction:** All tool names now use **single suffix** `_cremotemcp` to match the actual MCP server implementation.
**Examples:**
- `web_inject_axe_cremotemcp`
- `web_run_axe_cremotemcp`
- `web_contrast_check_cremotemcp`
- `web_gradient_contrast_check_cremotemcp`
- `web_media_validation_cremotemcp`
- `web_hover_focus_test_cremotemcp`
- `web_text_in_images_cremotemcp`
- `web_cross_page_consistency_cremotemcp`
- `web_animation_flash_cremotemcp`
- `web_enhanced_accessibility_cremotemcp`
- `web_keyboard_test_cremotemcp`
- `web_zoom_test_cremotemcp`
- `web_reflow_test_cremotemcp`
- `web_screenshot_cremotemcp`
- `web_navigate_cremotemcp`
- `console_command_cremotemcp`
**Why:** Ensures all tool references work correctly with the MCP server.
