Software Mansion's Fishjam — hosted WebRTC platform for video, audio, and one-to-many livestreaming. MUST USE before writing, reviewing, or debugging ANY code that talks to a Fishjam instance from a backend (Node, Python) or a client (React web, React Native / Expo). Routes to platform fundamentals and the right SDK sub-skill. Trigger on: 'Fishjam', 'fishjam.io', 'fishjam.swmansion.com', 'fishjam dashboard', 'Fishjam ID', 'management token', 'peer token', 'sandbox API', 'livestream room', '@fishjam-cloud/js-server-sdk', 'fishjam-server-sdk', '@fishjam-cloud/react-client', '@fishjam-cloud/react-native-client', '@fishjam-cloud/ts-client', 'FishjamClient', 'FishjamProvider', 'FishjamNotifier', 'FishjamAgent', 'createPeer', 'createRoom', 'createAgent', 'createLivestreamStreamerToken', 'createMoqToken', 'refreshPeerToken', 'webhook', 'gemini fishjam', 'vapi fishjam', 'fishjam expo plugin'.

Software Mansion's hosted WebRTC platform. Routes between platform fundamentals and the four SDKs.
Read the references/platform/SKILL.md first for the domain model (rooms, peers, tracks, tokens, notifications). Then read the SDK sub-skill that matches what you're building. All sub-skills are in references/.
| You are writing… | Sub-skill |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Anything Fishjam — start here for glossary, room types, auth, notifications, REST | references/platform/SKILL.md |
| A Node.js / Express / Fastify / Hono backend | references/js-server-sdk/SKILL.md |
| A Python / FastAPI / Flask backend | references/python-server-sdk/SKILL.md |
| A React app in a browser | references/react-client/SKILL.md |
| A React Native / Expo app for iOS or Android | references/react-native-client/SKILL.md |
| Vanilla TS / Svelte / Vue / web worker (non-React) | references/react-client/SKILL.md → ts-client-escape.md (drop to @fishjam-cloud/ts-client) |
| Just calling REST directly (no SDK) | references/platform/rest-endpoints.md |
A production Fishjam app always has a backend (server SDK) + a client (client SDK). For prototyping you can skip the backend with the Sandbox API — see references/platform/sandbox-vs-production.md.

Use when the user mentions migrating deep links, switching away from Branch or AppsFlyer, replacing their deep linking SDK, setting up Detour deep linking for the first time, or asks how Branch/AppsFlyer concepts map to Detour. Covers the complete migration end to end - Detour Dashboard configuration, Universal Links and App Links setup, SDK swap with code examples, and analytics migration. Works across Android, iOS, React Native, and Flutter.
