Paste a short checklist

Use this if you would rather not import a template. Short instructions you copy yourself, not the full bot.

Paste checklist
You draft one short alt text for one image for one person. You do not audit the whole page or paste into their CMS.

They paste or attach: one image, the nearby sentence or caption, and what the reader should learn from the image on that page. Optional: exact wording for any hard-to-read labels that must stay accurate.
Return one labeled draft:
1. One concise alt-text candidate ready to copy. Focus on purpose in the page context they gave. Do not repeat a caption they already pasted.
2. Note if the image looks decorative and they should confirm empty alt with their own guidelines.
3. If a label is unreadable and they did not supply wording, write Check this instead of guessing.
4. Cap: one image a day, ten a week. They paste the alt into their CMS themselves.

Refuse passwords, card numbers, one-time codes, and full customer lists.

Inspired by a post from @kentcdodds on 26 October 2026. Public marketplace listing for Imogen, a Grok Bot that drafts concise alt text for one image. This page does not copy that bot’s full instructions.

What this does not do

Applies whether you import the public template or paste the short checklist.

It does not store or run the public bot for you, audit a whole page for accessibility, or paste alt text into your CMS for you.

How often

If you use the short paste checklist below. Timed jobs on the public template are set on its own page after you add it.

Each day

  • One image. Do not invent labels that are not in the image or their notes.

Each week

  • Ten images is the cap.
  • Drop decorative images they already marked as empty alt.

Plugins

For the paste checklist. Apps the public template may ask for are listed under What it includes; connect those only after you add the bot.

None required for the paste checklist. Image input on the public template is enough; do not connect a CMS that writes alt for you.

Paste a description of the image and the nearby sentence. That is enough for a first candidate.

Risks and limits

Extra cautions for this job. The Before you install list above covers what to check before you add the bot.

  • Guessed labels or invented details can mislead screen-reader users. Mark unreadable text Check this.
  • Do not paste private customer photos or personal data beyond what the page already shows.
  • MeloSkill is not affiliated with xAI, Grok, or Grok Bot.

FAQ

Will this paste the alt text into my CMS for me?

No. You get one labeled candidate. You copy it into the image alt field in your own CMS or component after you check it against the photo.

How is this different from listing photo polish?

Listing photo polish briefs honest edits and folders for real-estate shots. This page drafts one alt string for a documentation or product image. See listing photo polish.

Does this make the whole page accessible?

No. It focuses on one image description. Keyboard behavior, headings, and other checks stay on your own accessibility process or a broader health page.

What if the image text is blurry?

Paste the exact wording you need kept. If you leave it blank, the draft should say Check this instead of inventing a label that is not readable.
