Core Notes

• Current npm/changelog release: 2.5.10 (verified 2026-07-10).
• Release 2.5.10 adds Broadcast Streaming and AI-oriented documentation and fixes enableMicOriginalInput.
• Video SDK sessions are not Zoom Meetings and use session tokens.
• JWT generation must stay backend-side.
• Wrapper is helper-heavy (audio/video/chat/share/recording/transcription, etc.).
• Event-driven design is required for robust UI state.

SDK-Bundled API Skill

Video SDK React Native 2.5.10 includes docs/ai-docs/skills/zm-videosdk-react-native-api/SKILL.md, paired docs/ai-docs/*-API.md / *-API.json files, TypeScript source under src/, and a working app under example/.

• Keep this repository skill as the workflow and troubleshooting entry point.
• Use docs/ai-docs/index.md, then the relevant JSON and Markdown pair, for exact wrapper signatures, event payloads, Promise behavior, and platform support.
• Cross-check src/ before generating code. Do not invent a JavaScript API merely because the native Android or iOS SDK exposes it.
• Ignore the bundled skill's stale 2.5.7 native fallback paths; this package and its local source are 2.5.10.
• See Module Map for high-value modules.
