setup-zoom-mcp

setup-zoom-mcp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zoom/zoom-plugin. It costs 46 tokens per session (1,020 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning guide for using Zoom MCP, a connection that lets AI tools work with Zoom data and actions, either alone or alongside Zoom’s REST API.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for designing Zoom AI workflows, choosing between MCP and REST or combining them, selecting the needed Zoom MCP surface, planning authentication and permissions, and defining a small proof of concept.
Why use it?
It helps determine whether an AI connector is suitable or whether predictable API automation is also needed. It also highlights authentication, permissions, client limitations, and setup risks.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

setup-zoom-mcp scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

/setup-zoom-mcp

If you see unfamiliar placeholders or need to check which tools are connected, see CONNECTORS.md.

Plan a Zoom MCP workflow and decide when to use MCP alone versus a hybrid REST API + MCP architecture.

Usage

/setup-zoom-mcp $ARGUMENTS

Workflow

  1. Determine whether the goal is deterministic automation, AI tool orchestration, or a hybrid.
  2. Identify whether the client uses Claude's published connector or requires a manually registered General App.
  3. For manual registration, select the default, Meetings, Canvas, Chat, Tasks, Revenue Accelerator, or Whiteboard MCP template through setup-zoom-marketplace-app.
  4. If MCP is appropriate, identify the likely Zoom MCP surface and transport assumptions.
  5. If MCP alone is not enough, define the REST API responsibilities separately.
  6. Call out auth, scope, and client capability constraints, especially the difference between Claude Cowork and Claude Code auth paths.
  7. End with a minimal proof-of-concept sequence.

Output

  • Recommended MCP strategy
  • Connector expectations
  • Hybrid boundaries if REST is also required
  • Risks and setup notes
  • Relevant skill links

Auth Rules

  • Claude Cowork: use the published Zoom connector and complete OAuth in Claude's connector flow.
  • Claude Code: for manual OAuth, start from the matching Marketplace MCP template, complete user-level OAuth, export ZOOM_MCP_ACCESS_TOKEN, reconnect the plugin, then continue with this skill.
  • Scope requirements differ by MCP server. Use the server-specific scope sets below and the detailed tables in ../zoom-mcp/concepts/oauth-setup.md.
