COLOR CONTRAST0 RULES FAILING

The CI gate disables color-contrast globally (libs/al-web-components/story-fixture/src/main.ts), so its result never reaches a test run. It is enabled for this measurement, and reported here whichever way it comes out.

SLOTDESCRIPTION
(default)The avatar content. Slot an `<img alt="…">` for a user photo, a single-letter initial string, or an `<al-icon-*>` placeholder. The host **renders as a circle by default** (no `variant` / `shape` attribute is needed for the circular form). The accessible name comes from slotted content — supply meaningful `alt` text on `<img>` or visible initials; a bare `aria-hidden` decorative avatar leaves the avatar unlabeled.
badgeOptional small status indicator rendered as a corner overlay (only honored when `hasBadge` is set).

THIS COMPONENT DECLARES NO EVENTS IN THE MANIFEST.
