Zoom Developer Platform Skills

Skills for building with Zoom SDKs, APIs, MCP servers, and integrations across web, mobile, desktop, and server environments.

Primary skill entrypoint: skills/SKILL.md

Installation

Claude Code Plugin Install

This repository is packaged as a Claude plugin:

• plugin manifest: .claude-plugin/plugin.json
• marketplace manifest: .claude-plugin/marketplace.json
• bundled MCP servers: .mcp.json

Install from GitHub using Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add zoom/skills
/plugin install zoom-skills@zoom-skills

Or add the local checkout as a marketplace source:

/plugin marketplace add /absolute/path/to/zoom-skills
/plugin install zoom-skills@zoom-skills

Native Agent Skills Installs

These editors document native SKILL.md support or compatible skill directories:

Agent	Install Model	Location	Docs
Cline	Native skills	~/.cline/skills/ or .cline/skills/	skills
BLACKBOX AI	Native skills	.blackbox/skills/	skills

Clone once:

git clone https://github.com/zoom/skills.git ~/zoom-skills

Cline raw skill install:

mkdir -p ~/.cline/skills
find ~/zoom-skills/skills -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec cp -r {} ~/.cline/skills/ \;

BLACKBOX AI project install:

mkdir -p .blackbox/skills
find ~/zoom-skills/skills -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec cp -r {} .blackbox/skills/ \;

If you previously installed this repo under the older agent-skills name, remove the old folder so your agent does not load duplicates.

Agents Without Native SKILL.md Installs

These editors do not expose a documented first-class SKILL.md install flow comparable to Cline or BLACKBOX AI. Use the nearest equivalent:

Tool	Recommended Integration	Docs
Roo Code	Port the relevant skill into Custom Modes and add MCP servers separately	docs
Kilo Code	Port the relevant skill into Custom Modes / Custom Rules and add MCP servers separately	docs

Recommended starting point for Roo Code or Kilo Code:

1. Start from skills/general/SKILL.md for routing and product selection.
2. Copy the target product skill into your mode/rule prompt, for example:
   • skills/rest-api/SKILL.md
   • skills/meeting-sdk/SKILL.md
   • skills/video-sdk/SKILL.md
   • skills/zoom-mcp/SKILL.md
3. Add the Zoom MCP servers separately from .mcp.json if your editor supports MCP.

Cursor

Cursor packaging metadata is included for marketplace-style consumers:

• plugin manifest: .cursor-plugin/plugin.json
• marketplace manifest: .cursor-plugin/marketplace.json
• repo rules: .cursor/rules/

Skills are automatically discovered when the repository is indexed by Context7.

Getting Started

1. Ask Claude about Zoom development

Once installed, simply ask questions about Zoom development:

How do I create a meeting using the Zoom API?

How do I build a meeting bot that joins and records?

What's the difference between Meeting SDK and Video SDK?

2. The agent loads the right skill automatically

The general skill acts as a router and directs to the appropriate specialized skill:

Your Question	Skill Loaded
"Create a meeting via API"	zoom-rest-api
"Embed Zoom in my React app"	zoom-meeting-sdk
"Build custom video UI"	zoom-video-sdk
"Handle webhook events"	webhooks
"Build a meeting bot"	zoom-meeting-sdk + rtms
"Set up OAuth authentication"	oauth
"Build AI-agent meeting search tools"	zoom-mcp

3. Skills chain automatically

When your task requires multiple skills, the agent loads them as needed. For example, "build a meeting bot" loads:

• zoom-meeting-sdk (for joining meetings)
• rtms (for real-time audio/video/transcript access)
• zoom-rest-api (for creating meetings)
