redis-docs

redis-docs is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cookieMonsterDev/agents-skills. It costs 100 tokens per session (1,156 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Official documentation guidance for Redis, an in-memory data platform used for fast application data, messaging, search, and more. It covers commands, data types, clients, persistence, and deployments.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to work with strings, hashes, lists, sets, streams, JSON, search, vector search, transactions, pub/sub, replication, clustering, security, monitoring, and persistence.
Why use it?
It helps avoid outdated command behavior and the assumption that Redis is only a cache. Answers are based on Redis documentation.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

redis-docs scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 103 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Redis questions are easy to answer from stale memory or outdated command behavior. Use this skill to ground answers in the official Redis documentation and return the closest authoritative page instead of generic caching advice.

When to Use

Use this skill when the request is about:

  • Redis concepts, terminology, data structures, and command behavior
  • Strings, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets, streams, JSON, bitmaps, geospatial, probabilistic types, and vector sets
  • Command syntax, pipelining, transactions, pub/sub, and keyspace patterns
  • Client libraries (Node.js, Python, Java, Go, .NET, Ruby, PHP, Rust, C, and others)
  • Search, query, indexing, and vector database features
  • AI development patterns, RAG, and real-time context with Redis
  • Redis Open Source installation, configuration, scaling, security, and persistence
  • Redis Cloud, Redis Software, Redis for Kubernetes, and production operations
  • Redis CLI, Redis Insight, and other client tools
  • Monitoring, logging, backups, replication, clustering, and high availability

Do not use this skill for:

  • Managed AWS ElastiCache or MemoryDB console operations when the question is provider-specific UI rather than Redis behavior. Use aws-cli-docs for AWS CLI commands against those services.
  • Apache Kafka topics, producers, consumers, or brokers. Use kafka-docs instead.
  • Application framework caching abstractions unless the question is specifically about Redis server or client behavior documented by Redis.

Workflow

1. Classify the request

Decide which bucket the question belongs to before searching:

  • Getting started and installation
  • Data types and commands
  • Application development patterns (pipelining, transactions, pub/sub)
  • Search, JSON, streams, and vector features
  • AI and agent development
  • Client libraries and tools
  • Operations, scaling, security, and persistence
  • Redis Cloud, Software, or Kubernetes products
  • Monitoring, troubleshooting, and performance

If you need a quick starting point, load references/topic-map.md and jump to the closest section.

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

redis-docs is a skill published in the GitHub repository cookieMonsterDev/agents-skills (4 stars, last pushed 15d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 100 tokens to every session and 1,156 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
