probe-sdk · openai — Codex skill: pre-call checks and installation
This skill guides readiness checks before users enter a Zoom meeting or video session. Use it to plan checks for browser support, devices, or network conditions.
npx skills add openai/plugins --skill probe-sdk -a codexWhat probe-sdk does
The guide walks through checks to run before a Meeting SDK or Video SDK join flow. Choose what to test, such as browser support, camera, microphone, speakers, network, CPU, or a diagnostic report. Then decide whether a failed check should stop entry, show a warning, or send support telemetry.
It also covers the Probe SDK lifecycle, a diagnostic-page example, a network pattern, and common troubleshooting cases. Run diagnostics before the join flow. Keep their results separate from meeting tokens, and avoid forwarding device details that are not needed. Browser permissions, device detection, HTTPS, firewall behavior, and unsupported environments are separate areas to investigate when a check fails.
What it helps with
- check browser readiness before joining a meeting
- catch camera or microphone issues before a video session
- choose whether a failed check prevents entry
- collect diagnostic details for support
Example prompts for the agent
- Plan camera and microphone checks before users join through Meeting SDK.
- Add a network check before Video SDK starts and warn users if it fails.
- Investigate a failed diagnostic involving browser permissions or HTTPS.

--- name: probe-sdk description: Use when using Probe SDK. --- # Zoom Probe SDK Use this skill when the app needs readiness checks before a user joins a meeting or video session. ## Workflow 1. Define the preflight gate: browser support, camera, microphone, speaker, network, CPU, or diagnostic report. 2. Run diagnostics before the Meeting SDK or Video SDK join flow. 3. Decide whether failed checks should block join, warn the user, or capture support telemetry. 4. Keep probe results separate from meeting/session tokens and avoid sending unnecessary device details downstream. 5. Debug by isolating browser permissions, device enumeration, HTTPS requirements, firewall behavior, and unsupported environments. ## References - Full preserved guide: [references/full-guide.md](references/full-guide.md) - Probe overview: [probe-sdk.md](probe-sdk.md) - Architecture and lifecycle: [concepts/architecture-and-lifecycle.md](concepts/architecture-and-lifecycle.md) - Diagnostic page pattern: [examples/diagnostic-page-pattern.md](examples/diagnostic-page-pattern.md) - Network pattern: [examples/comprehensive-network-pattern.md](examples/comprehensive-network-pattern.md) - Common issues: [troubleshooting/common-issues.md](troubleshooting/common-issues.md)
