# Zoom meetings plugin

The `zoom-meetings` plugin joins Zoom meeting links as a guest through the Zoom Web App in the OpenClaw Chrome profile. It accepts meeting links under `zoom.us/j/...` and account subdomains such as `example.zoom.us/j/...`. It does not create meetings, dial in, use the Zoom Meeting SDK, or capture audio/video recordings.

## Setup

Talk-back uses the same local audio prerequisites as the [Google Meet plugin](/plugins/google-meet): macOS, the `BlackHole 2ch` virtual audio device, and SoX.

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"min-light","dark":"min-dark"}}
openclaw plugins install @openclaw/zoom-meetings
openclaw gateway restart
brew install blackhole-2ch sox
sudo reboot
system_profiler SPAudioDataType | grep -i BlackHole
command -v sox
```

The plugin is enabled by default after installation. Add an entry only to customize it, then check setup:

```json5 theme={"theme":{"light":"min-light","dark":"min-dark"}}
{
  plugins: {
    entries: {
      "zoom-meetings": {
        config: {
          defaultMode: "agent",
          chrome: { guestName: "OpenClaw Agent" },
        },
      },
    },
  },
}
```

Run `openclaw plugins disable zoom-meetings` if you do not want the plugin active.

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"min-light","dark":"min-dark"}}
openclaw zoommeetings setup
openclaw zoommeetings join 'https://zoom.us/j/1234567890'
```

Use `chromeNode.node` to run Chrome, BlackHole, and SoX on a paired macOS node. The node must allow `zoommeetings.chrome` and `browser.proxy`.

## Modes

| Mode         | Behavior                                                                    |
| ------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `agent`      | Realtime transcription consults the configured OpenClaw agent; TTS replies. |
| `bidi`       | A realtime voice model listens and replies directly.                        |
| `transcribe` | Observe-only join with live-caption transcript snapshots.                   |

Zoom live captions are enabled after admission in every mode so OpenClaw can
persist meeting notes. The `transcript` action still returns the bounded live
buffer only for `transcribe` sessions. On leave, OpenClaw stores the durable
transcript and derived summary in the shared state database; list or export
them with [`openclaw transcripts`](/cli/transcripts).

Automatic notes are enabled by default. Set `transcripts.enabled: false` to
disable durable notes globally; explicit `transcribe` mode still exposes only
its bounded live tail.

## Guest join limits

The browser adapter chooses **Join from browser**, fills the guest name, turns the camera off, configures the microphone for the selected mode, and clicks **Join**. Zoom Web App runs under `app.zoom.us`; the plugin grants that origin microphone and speaker-selection permissions before navigation. In-call state uses Zoom's Leave control. Lobby, sign-in, passcode, CAPTCHA, and device-permission states return explicit manual-action reasons.

Zoom host and account policy can disable browser join, require authentication or email verification, show a CAPTCHA, or require host admission. Complete that step in the OpenClaw Chrome profile, then retry status or speech. The plugin does not bypass Zoom policy.

The Zoom Web App has been live-validated with an official Zoom test meeting for the app interstitial, iframe guest-name entry, prejoin microphone and camera controls, join, browser and macOS media permissions, in-call detection, live-caption enablement, and host-ended detection. Lobby and authentication states depend on host policy and retain text fallbacks when no stable DOM identifier is available.

## Tool and gateway surface

The `zoom_meetings` agent tool supports `join`, `leave`, `status`, `transcript`, and `speak`. Gateway methods use the `zoommeetings.*` prefix. The node command is `zoommeetings.chrome`.
