 # Manual accessibility review checklist
 
 Automated axe checks do not establish WCAG conformance. A human reviewer must
-copy this checklist to `artifacts/tests/a11y-manual/<route-id>.md`, execute it
-on the release candidate, and sign it.
+review all three route records in `artifacts/tests/a11y-manual/` against one
+release candidate and sign them. Copy the template fields exactly; the gate
+rejects blank identity/timestamp/signature fields, pending verdicts, mismatched
+release IDs, or missing routes.
 
-- Status: `pending` or `reviewed`
-- Reviewer and reviewed-at timestamp
-- Keyboard: all actions reachable in logical order
-- Focus: visible, route changes deterministic, modal restore verified
-- Screen reader: headings, live regions, errors, and actions announced once
-- Reduced motion: non-essential animation suppressed
-- Color signal: every state has text/icon/structure in addition to color
-- Notes and linked defect IDs
+Allowed item verdicts:
 
-Passing the automated threshold means only that the tested pages had zero
-critical/serious axe findings under the recorded browser run.
+- `pass`
+- `not-applicable (<specific reason>)`
+
+Required record:
+
+```text
+Status: reviewed
+Route ID: APP_HOME
+Release ID: <immutable release ID>
+Reviewer: <human reviewer identity>
+Reviewed at: <RFC 3339 timestamp>
+Signature: <reviewer identity or approved signature reference>

+M6 Color signal: pass
+M7 Reduced motion: pass
+Screen reader: pass
+Notes: <observations and linked defect IDs>
+```
+
+The reviewer must verify:
+
+- M1: every action works without a pointing device
+- M2: every focused element has a visible indicator
+- M3: route transitions move focus to a deterministic target
+- M4: modal focus is trapped and restored, when a modal exists
+- M5: errors are programmatically associated with their controls, when present
+- M6: state never relies on color alone
+- M7: non-essential motion is suppressed with reduced-motion preference
+- Screen reader: headings, live regions, errors, and actions are announced once
+
+Passing automated evidence means only that tested pages had no critical or
+serious axe findings under the recorded browser run.
