Release note for the Stylelint accessibility pattern rename in codacy/codacy-stylelint#564. 12 patterns get the a11y_ prefix: they start disabled, and issues from the old IDs disappear. Those issues were "unknown rule" results, not real findings.

The in-app banner (codacy/codacy-spa, OD-1028) links to this page, the same way the PHP_CodeSniffer banner linked to cloud-2026-07-remove-codesniffer-packages.

Files

• docs/release-notes/cloud/cloud-2026-10-stylelint-a11y-patterns-renamed.md: the note, with a table of old and new pattern IDs
• docs/release-notes/index.md: index bullet, newest first under 2026
• mkdocs.yml: nav entry under Release notes > Cloud > 2026

Before merging

• Merge together with fix unknown rules in tool results codacy-stylelint#564 reaching production. The note describes that release.
• One TODO: verify marker: whether local Codacy Analysis CLI setups reference these pattern IDs (configuration file bullet). TCE to confirm.

Checks

• mkdocs build --strict: page and index link generated. Its only warning before committing was the new file having no git history.
• Vale: one hit, spaced dash in the title (Microsoft.Dashes). Kept to match the existing release-note titles.
