Concrete capability record

Data, retrieval, actions, identity, and operating limits

A field-by-field summary of what the reviewed first-party references actually support. Publisher update dates and BYO-UI review dates are shown separately below.

01 · Records and state owned

Product-specific meeting, chat, whiteboard, and supported Zoom context.

02 · Data you can retrieve

Product-specific meeting, chat, whiteboard, and supported Zoom context.

03 · Actions and write paths

Product-specific actions based on OAuth scopes and tool catalogs.

04 · Authentication and permissions

Zoom OAuth and product scopes Zoom product licenses, user permissions, and per-server OAuth scopes apply.

05 · Monitoring, approval, and recovery

Consequential writes should require explicit review; use vendor confirmation controls where available. Multiple product servers and a separate host role must be modeled independently.

06 · Gaps and implementation limits

Multiple product servers and a separate host role must be modeled independently.

Role: dual

Read scope: Product-specific meeting, chat, whiteboard, and supported Zoom context.

Write scope: Product-specific actions based on OAuth scopes and tool catalogs.

Authentication: Zoom OAuth and product scopes

Approval boundary: Consequential writes should require explicit review; use vendor confirmation controls where available.

Protocol does not erase product boundaries.

Confirm the current tool catalog, plan, region, scopes, rate limits, terms, and write behavior before implementation.

Evidence and dates

First-party references, with publisher and review dates separated

“Publisher updated” is shown only when the page exposes an update date. “BYO-UI reviewed” records when this research checked the reference. A missing publisher date is reported as missing—not replaced with the review date.
