## What it does

Client View renders the meeting as a full-page takeover through the `ZoomMtg` global singleton with a callback-based API. The UI matches Zoom Web Client, so there is little to customize. It fits when you want a meeting embedded fast without building your own layout.

The skill lays out the init order: browser check via `checkSystemRequirements`, WebAssembly preload (`preLoadWasm`, `prepareWebSDK`), locale load, then `ZoomMtg.init` and `ZoomMtg.join`. `join` needs a `signature` — an SDK JWT your backend issues. The meeting password goes in `passWord` with a capital W, and in-meeting events come through `inMeetingServiceListener()`.

Watch the optional fields: passing `userEmail`, `tk` or `zak` as `undefined` can break the join at runtime. Add them to the payload only when they hold a real value. Installing the skill needs Node.js, since the command runs through `npx`.

## Install

### Codex (native platform)

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

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

### Claude Code

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add openai/plugins --skill client-view -a claude-code
```

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

### Cursor

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

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install openai/plugins client-view
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/client-view/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

**Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/openai/plugins --path plugins/zoom/skills/meeting-sdk/web/client-view
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/client-view/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

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/meeting-sdk/web/client-view/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- embed a full-page Zoom meeting in a web app
- ship Client View without building a custom UI
- run the SDK init steps in the right order
- join a meeting with an SDK JWT from your backend
- listen to in-meeting events via `inMeetingServiceListener()`

## Example prompts
- Help me integrate Zoom Meeting SDK Web in Client View into my React app
- Write the `ZoomMtg` init chain: browser check, `preLoadWasm`, `prepareWebSDK`, `init` and `join`
- Why does `ZoomMtg.join` fail when I pass `userEmail` as `undefined`?

# Zoom Meeting SDK Web - Client View

Full-page Zoom meeting experience embedded in your web application. Client View provides the familiar Zoom interface with minimal customization needed.

## Overview

Client View uses the `ZoomMtg` global singleton to render a full-page meeting experience identical to the Zoom Web Client.

| Aspect | Details |
|--------|---------|
| **API Object** | `ZoomMtg` (global singleton) |
| **API Style** | Callback-based |
| **UI** | Full-page takeover |
| **Password param** | `passWord` (capital W) |
| **Events** | `inMeetingServiceListener()` |
| **Best For** | Quick integration, standard Zoom UI |

## Installation

### NPM

```bash
npm install @zoom/meetingsdk --save
```

```javascript
import { ZoomMtg } from '@zoom/meetingsdk';
```

### CDN

```html
<script src="https://source.zoom.us/{VERSION}/lib/vendor/react.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://source.zoom.us/{VERSION}/lib/vendor/react-dom.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://source.zoom.us/{VERSION}/lib/vendor/redux.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://source.zoom.us/{VERSION}/lib/vendor/redux-thunk.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://source.zoom.us/{VERSION}/lib/vendor/lodash.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://source.zoom.us/zoom-meeting-{VERSION}.min.js"></script>
```

## Complete Initialization Flow

```javascript
// Step 1: Check browser compatibility
console.log('Requirements:', ZoomMtg.checkSystemRequirements());

// Step 2: Set CDN path (optional - for China or custom hosting)
// ZoomMtg.setZoomJSLib('https://source.zoom.us/{VERSION}/lib', '/av');

// Step 3: Preload WebAssembly modules
ZoomMtg.preLoadWasm();
ZoomMtg.prepareWebSDK();

// Step 4: Load language resources
ZoomMtg.i18n.load('en-US');
ZoomMtg.i18n.onLoad(() => {

  // Step 5: Initialize SDK
  ZoomMtg.init({
    leaveUrl: '/meeting-ended',
    patchJsMedia: true,
    disableCORP: !window.crossOriginIsolated,
    success: () => {
      console.log('SDK initialized');

      // Step 6: Join meeting
      const joinPayload = {
        signature: signature,
        meetingNumber: meetingNumber,
        userName: userName,
        passWord: passWord,
        success: (res) => {
          console.log('Joined meeting');

          // Step 7: Post-join operations
          ZoomMtg.getAttendeeslist({});
          ZoomMtg.getCurrentUser({
            success: (res) => console.log('Current user:', res.result.currentUser)
          });
        },
        error: (err) => console.error('Join failed:', err)
      };

      // IMPORTANT: only include optional fields when they have real values
      // Passing undefined for some optional fields can cause runtime join errors
      if (userEmail) joinPayload.userEmail = userEmail;
      if (tk) joinPayload.tk = tk;
      if (zak) joinPayload.zak = zak;

      ZoomMtg.join(joinPayload);
    },
