From 0be9a14e359d33baaa3e3dc3ff4b87bc948ad161 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aaryan Choudhary Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 10:05:39 +0530 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] chore(accessibility): deprecate the accessibilityExpert tool accessibilityExpert is going away. Until it is removed it keeps answering from BrowserStack's accessibility knowledge base, so nothing that calls it breaks, but its description and title now say it is deprecated, each answer starts with a note that it will be removed, and the tool list in docs/TOOLS.md marks it.
