Open Source·AI Agent Infrastructure

Your Zoom Account, Controlled by Agents.

Meetings. Recordings. Webinars. Reports. 59 commands. Every one doubles as an MCP tool.

Zoom has no official CLI built for autonomous agents. Agents can’t schedule meetings, pull transcripts, or run reports without custom API wrappers.
So we built zoom-agent-cli — the missing CLI for agents on Zoom.

Why zoom-agent-cli Exists

Without zoom-agent-cli

  • No official CLI — Zoom only offers a REST API and dashboard UI
  • Agents can’t schedule meetings or pull transcripts without custom API wrappers
  • S2S OAuth token refresh must be implemented from scratch for every use
  • No MCP support — agents can’t call Zoom as a native tool
  • Meeting intelligence (summaries, transcripts, quality data) locked in the dashboard

With zoom-agent-cli

  • 59 commands covering the full Zoom API surface across 9 groups
  • S2S OAuth with automatic token refresh — no browser login, no manual token management
  • Every command is also an MCP tool — plug into any AI agent via npx
  • JSON-first output — pipe to jq, save to files, feed directly to agents
  • AI Companion summaries and full transcripts accessible programmatically

Claude Desktop / Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json or claude_desktop_config.json)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zoom": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "zoom-agent-cli", "mcp"],
      "env": {
        "ZOOM_ACCOUNT_ID": "your-account-id",
        "ZOOM_CLIENT_ID": "your-client-id",
        "ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET": "your-client-secret"
      }
    }
  }

OpenClaw Agent Setup

Give any OpenClaw agent full Zoom access. Set the S2S credentials once, and the agent can schedule meetings, pull transcripts, and generate reports autonomously.

1
Create a Server-to-Server OAuth app in Zoom Marketplace
marketplace.zoom.us → Develop → Build App → Server-to-Server OAuth. Add meeting, recording, user, and report scopes.
2
Set credentials in agent environment
export ZOOM_ACCOUNT_ID=... ZOOM_CLIENT_ID=... ZOOM_CLIENT_SECRET=... — or use zoom login to save to ~/.zoom-cli/config.json
3
Add MCP config to agent
Add the npx zoom-agent-cli mcp server config to your agent's MCP config file — works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, OpenClaw, or any MCP client
4
Add Zoom instructions to SOUL.md
Tell the agent what to do post-meeting: pull summaries, update CRM, schedule follow-ups. The agent knows which commands to call.
5
Test from Slack
"What happened in my 10am meeting?" — agent calls zoom recordings transcript and meetings summary via MCP, returns structured intelligence

Architecture

Every API endpoint is a CommandDefinition — one source of truth powering both the CLI subcommand and the MCP tool. Add a command once, get both interfaces automatically.

This Tool Powers OpenClaw

OpenClaw is the AI agent that uses zoom-agent-cli (and the full suite of agent CLIs) to run your GTM operations autonomously. Set it up once, and let it work.
