## What Changed
Global Chatbot (Frontend/chatbot.js):Added asynchronous screen-reader accessibility by implementing aria-live="polite" and aria-relevant="additions" attributes dynamically onto the messages container block.
Analysis Form (Frontend/Analysis/analysis.html): Restructured form inputs using semantic

and an invisible, descriptive to improve form control grouping. Attached aria-live parameters to the dynamic risk card zones.
Focus Styles (Frontend/Analysis/analysis.css): Added a global, high-contrast :focus-visible outline on all links, inputs, and buttons to support clear keyboard-only tracking.

## Why It Was Added
These improvements directly resolve accessibility and interactive flow gaps on the platform. Previously, keyboard-only or screen-reader users could not cleanly track their position down the form fields or receive live, conversational text notifications from the chatbot. These changes bring the form fields and asynchronous AI responses up to modern web accessibility standards without altering the standard visual aesthetic for mouse users.

## Testing Completed
Verified keyboard sequence flow via the sequential Tab Test, confirming high-contrast focus rings align properly down the interface.
Tested the asynchronous lifecycle updates of the ClimateBot panel to guarantee live messaging states trigger flawlessly.
