In the below example, the accordion-group directive shares a controller and scope with the parent accordion, using the "require: '^accordion'" attribute within the accordion-group directive.
If I wanted to create a child directive, under accordion-group, how would it access the accordion controller as well? Requiring ^accordion and ^accordionGroup do not seem to work.

It does work that way. I was just being stupid. Fiddle for posterity here.
'use strict';
angular.module('myApp', []).controller('OneController', function() {
this.test = function(element) {
element.css('color', 'red');
}
}).directive('one', function() {
return {
restrict: 'E',
transclude: true,
replace: true,
controller: 'OneController',
template: '<span ng-transclude>And a </span>',
}
}).directive('two', function() {
return {
restrict: 'E',
transclude: true,
replace: true,
require: '^one',
template: '<span ng-transclude>and a </span>',
}
}).directive('three', function() {
return {
restrict: 'E',
transclude: true,
replace: true,
require: '^one',
template: '<span ng-transclude>and a one two</span>',
link: function(scope, element, attrs, ctrl) {
ctrl.test(element);
}
}
});
