What this Skill does
Reference skill for Zoom RTMS. Use after routing to a live-media workflow when processing real-time audio, video, chat, transcripts, screen share, or contact-center voice streams.
How the upstream workflow works
Quick Start (Manual WebSocket)
For full control or non-SDK languages, implement the two-phase WebSocket protocol: See: Manual WebSocket Guide for complete implementation.
Upstream passage · L161 ↗Quick Start Path
If you're new to RTMS, follow this order: Run preflight checks first -> RUNBOOK.md Understand the architecture -> concepts/connection-architecture.md Two-phase WebSocket: Signaling + Media
Upstream passage · L369 ↗RTMS Overview
RTMS is a data pipeline that gives your app access to live media from Zoom meetings, webinars, and Video SDK sessions without participant bots. Instead of having automated clients join meetings, use RTMS to collect media data directly from Zoom's infrastructure.

No separate limits passage was selected from this file. This does not mean the Skill is safe for every input or environment. Review the complete source and validate your own result.
Start with a safe trial
- Check the supported host and the repository installation instructions. Keep the Skill directory and its referenced scripts, assets and documentation together; SKILL.md alone may omit dependencies.
- Give the agent your real input, desired output and acceptance criteria. Invocation syntax and available tools depend on the host; this site does not assume a universal install command.
- Try the source workflow in a disposable project or on a copy. Review operations that change files, remote services or billable resources before allowing them.
- Validate the output against the source quality checks and your own requirements. A successful trigger or a high repository Star count does not establish a correct result.
