# Zoom General

Use this skill for cross-product platform context after the user’s goal is understood. For first-step routing, prefer `start`, `plan-zoom-product`, or `plan-zoom-integration`.

## Workflow

1. Classify the job by outcome: embed meetings, custom video, automate resources, consume events, process media, use meeting intelligence, or publish a Marketplace app.
2. Choose the Zoom surface that owns the behavior: REST API, webhooks, WebSockets, Meeting SDK, Video SDK, Zoom Apps SDK, Phone, Contact Center, Virtual Agent, Scribe, Rivet, or Cobrowse.
3. Confirm auth and scope model before implementation; Zoom surfaces differ on user-level OAuth, account-level OAuth, and SDK signatures.
4. Route to the narrow skill once the surface is chosen rather than keeping broad guidance in context.
5. Use the preserved guide only when a task crosses product boundaries or needs detailed comparison tables.
