# ui-toolkit

A skill that walks the agent through wiring a prebuilt Zoom Video SDK web UI into your app. Useful when you need a custom session, not a regular Zoom meeting.

## What it does

The skill checks product fit first: UI Toolkit is for custom Video SDK sessions, not Meeting SDK joins. From there the agent sets up session credentials and server-side signature generation, picks an integration shape and mounts it inside the app shell.

Session join and leave, media permissions, chat, captions, recordings and theming are configured against your requirements. If you need deep control over media layout, the skill routes you to `build-zoom-video-sdk-app`. Debugging is split into separate tracks: browser permissions, cross-origin isolation, token generation, package version mismatch and unsupported paid features.

References cover the full guide, environment variables and common issues. One thing to plan for: the session signature is generated server-side, so a frontend alone won't cut it — you need a backend for tokens.

## Install

### Codex (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add openai/plugins --skill ui-toolkit -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/ui-toolkit/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

```bash
npx skills add openai/plugins --skill ui-toolkit -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/ui-toolkit/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/ui-toolkit/

### Cursor

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/ui-toolkit/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/openai/plugins/tree/HEAD/plugins/zoom/skills/ui-toolkit/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- stand up a prebuilt web UI for a custom Zoom Video SDK session
- generate the session signature on the server and hand it to the client
- handle session join and leave plus camera and mic permissions
- turn on chat, captions and recordings inside the session UI
- sort out cross-origin isolation and browser permissions while debugging

## Example prompts
- Wire up ui-toolkit and build the prebuilt UI for a custom Zoom Video SDK session
- Add chat and captions to the session UI with ui-toolkit
- Help me debug token generation and browser permissions in ui-toolkit

# Zoom Video SDK UI Toolkit

Use this skill when the user wants a prebuilt web UI for a custom Zoom Video SDK session. If the user needs an actual Zoom meeting, route to `build-zoom-meeting-sdk-app` instead.

## Workflow

1. Confirm product fit: UI Toolkit is for Video SDK custom sessions, not Meeting SDK joins.
2. Set up the required Video SDK session credentials and server-side signature generation.
3. Pick the UI Toolkit integration shape and mount it inside the app shell.
4. Configure session join, leave, media permissions, chat, captions, recordings, and theming based on product requirements.
5. Keep custom UI needs explicit; if the user needs deep media layout control, route to `build-zoom-video-sdk-app`.
6. Debug browser permissions, cross-origin isolation, token generation, package version mismatch, and unsupported paid features separately.
