Question
An AI generated this 'accessible' search form. A screen-reader user tabs to the input and hears only 'edit text, blank' — no field name. And the icon button is unannounced. Identify the a11y defects.
<form role="search"> <label>Search</label> <input type="text" placeholder="Search" /> <button> <SearchIcon /> </button></form>What a strong answer looks like
Treat the AI’s output as a draft to verify, not an answer to trust. Name the specific flaw and the input that triggers it, say how you’d catch it — tests, edge cases, reading critically — and how you’d re-prompt or decompose to get it right.

Vibe coding: describe the solution in plain language (or narrate it) and the coach grades your approach. Generating runnable code from your description is coming next.
Run or narrate your approach, then ask the coach.
