Get Inclusa running

Download Inclusa

Inclusa is distributed from the Inclusa downloads page. Each release comes with step-by-step installation instructions. Grab the latest one, follow them to get the inclusa command in place, then come back here.

Once it is installed, run inclusa in any project folder and it boots the studio in your browser, scoped to that folder. Its reports save under that project's .inclusa/ directory.

What you need

Node 20 or newer, and a Chromium browser you already have: Chrome, Edge, or Brave. There is no bundled headless download, no native binaries, no compiler, and no admin rights. If your browser is installed somewhere unusual and auto detection misses it, set the INCLUSA_BROWSER environment variable to the executable path.

Scan your first site

In the studio, enter a URL and start a scan. Inclusa opens each page in the browser, runs the checks against the rendered DOM, and builds the report live as it crawls. The donut and bars animate in as each page streams back. When it finishes, you get a conformance scorecard, recommended fixes, and a full drill down by rule and by page.

Use it in CI

The same tool runs headless in a pipeline and sets the exit code so a build can fail on an accessibility regression.

inclusa scan https://staging.example.com --ci --crawl \
  --sarif a11y.sarif --junit a11y.xml

Exit code 0 passes, 2 means the gate failed, and 1 is an execution error.
