What the skill teaches
The parent skill for the Zoom Plugin SDK, used to build native macOS or Windows companion apps that control an installed Zoom Workplace desktop client over inter-process communication. It sets out when to use it rather than the Meeting SDK, the Zoom Apps SDK or the REST API, and stresses that it is neither a headless bot nor a replacement client. It describes the architecture, a common lifecycle, the OAuth token exchange and the feature surface such as starting or joining meetings and controlling audio, video and sharing, then routes to its macOS or Windows child skill.
Capabilities
- Decide whether the Plugin SDK fits a desktop app
- Control an installed Zoom client over IPC
- Route to the macOS or Windows Plugin SDK guide
