# website-evaluator
A Docker-based website audit tool. Given a URL it captures screenshots, runs
Lighthouse audits (desktop + mobile), extracts DOM metadata, and assembles a
structured Markdown report designed to be read by Claude for design critique
and improvement recommendations.
## Quick Start
```bash
# Build the image
docker build -t website-evaluator .
# Evaluate a site
mkdir -p output
docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)/output:/output" website-evaluator https://example.com
# Feed the report to Claude
# Open output/report.md and paste it into a Claude conversation with:
# "Here is a website evaluation report. Please analyse it and suggest improvements."
```
## Output
```
output/
report.md # Primary artifact — structured Markdown for Claude
screenshots/
desktop.png # Full-page desktop (1440×900)
mobile.png # Full-page mobile (375×812)

- **Accessibility detail** — WCAG violations grouped by impact level
- **Performance detail** — Opportunities and diagnostics with estimated savings
- **SEO detail** — Meta, robots, canonical, structured data
