Descrizione
When running the scanner action on a private GitHub Pages site, the scanner flags an axe _page-has-heading-one_ violation on the URL `/pages/auth`. This page is GitHub's own built-in authentication page (the login gate for private GitHub Pages sites), not a page a user can author or control.
The scanned element contains attributes like `data-turbo-loaded`, `data-color-mode`, `data-a11y-animated-images`, and `js-focus-visible`, which confirm it is GitHub's own UI, not user content. We cannot fix this violation because we do not own the page.
In our case, this triggered 30 duplicate pull requests in our repository (as we ran on a list of URLs), all attempting to create a pages/auth.html file that has no effect on the actual scanned page.
Request:
Please either
- (1) fix the accessibility violation on GitHub's own /pages/auth page, or
- (2) update the github/accessibility-scanner action to exclude GitHub-infrastructure URLs from its scan scope by default, or
- document how to configure URL exclusions for these pages

Inizia con il file gh-a11y-scanner.yml allegato e i log del workflow per tracciare come /pages/auth viene individuato, scansionato e segnalato. Controlla la configurazione dell’ambito degli URL o delle esclusioni dello scanner e riproduci il false positive, se possibile. Il lavoro è completato quando la pagina dell’infrastruttura GitHub viene gestita senza fix creati dall’utente, tramite il comportamento dello scanner oppure tramite una configurazione documentata.
