npx mdskill add anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins/choose-zoom-approachSelect the optimal Zoom architecture for any specific use case.
- Matches requirements to REST, SDKs, Webhooks, or hybrid solutions.
- Integrates with Zoom's API, SDKs, MCP, and Contact Center tools.
- Evaluates problem type against a decision framework table.
- Outputs a precise recommendation for the best Zoom surface.

--- name: choose-zoom-approach description: Choose the right Zoom architecture for a use case. Use when deciding between REST API, Webhooks, WebSockets, Meeting SDK, Video SDK, Zoom Apps SDK, Zoom MCP, Phone, Contact Center, or a hybrid approach. user-invocable: false --- # Choose Zoom Approach Pick the smallest correct Zoom surface for the job, then layer in only the supporting pieces that are actually required. ## Decision Framework | Problem Type | Primary Zoom Surface | |---|---| | Deterministic backend automation, account management, reporting, scheduled jobs | [rest-api](../rest-api/SKILL.md) | | Event delivery to your backend | [webhooks](../webhooks/SKILL.md) or [websockets](../websockets/SKILL.md) | | Embed Zoom meetings into your app | [meeting-sdk](../meeting-sdk/SKILL.md) | | Build a fully custom video experience | [video-sdk](../video-sdk/SKILL.md) | | Build inside the Zoom client | [zoom-apps-sdk](../zoom-apps-sdk/SKILL.md) | | AI-agent tool workflows over Zoom data | [zoom-mcp](../zoom-mcp/SKILL.md) | | Real-time media extraction or meeting bots | [rtms](../rtms/SKILL.md) plus [meeting-sdk](../meeting-sdk/SKILL.md) when needed | | Phone workflows | [phone](../phone/SKILL.md) | | Contact Center or Virtual Agent flows | [contact-center](../contact-center/SKILL.md) or [virtual-agent](../virtual-agent/SKILL.md) | ## Guardrails - Do not recommend Video SDK when the user actually needs Zoom meeting semantics. - Do not recommend Meeting SDK when the user needs a fully custom session product. - Do not replace deterministic backend automation with MCP-only guidance. - Prefer hybrid `rest-api + zoom-mcp` when the user needs both stable system actions and AI-driven discovery. ## What To Produce - One recommended path - Minimum supporting components - Hard constraints and tradeoffs - Immediate next implementation step

- account-research"Research a company using Common Room data. Triggers on 'research [company]', 'tell me about [domain]', 'pull up signals for [account]', 'what's going on with [company]', or any account-level question."
- analyzeAnswer data questions -- from quick lookups to full analyses. Use when looking up a single metric, investigating what's driving a trend or drop, comparing segments over time, or preparing a formal data report for stakeholders.
- architectureCreate or evaluate an architecture decision record (ADR). Use when choosing between technologies (e.g., Kafka vs SQS), documenting a design decision with trade-offs and consequences, reviewing a system design proposal, or designing a new component from requirements and constraints.
- audit-supportSupport SOX 404 compliance with control testing methodology, sample selection, and documentation standards. Use when generating testing workpapers, selecting audit samples, classifying control deficiencies, or preparing for internal or external audits.
- brand-reviewReview content against your brand voice, style guide, and messaging pillars, flagging deviations by severity with specific before/after fixes. Use when checking a draft before it ships, when auditing copy for voice consistency and terminology, or when screening for unsubstantiated claims, missing disclaimers, and other legal flags.
