redis

redis is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from kouroshez/coding-os. It costs 155 tokens per session (1,388 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Guidance for using Redis, an in-memory data store, as a cache, queue, rate limiter, or temporary data store. It explains how to choose data structures, expiration rules, and ways to keep cached data aligned with a database.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add caching, design Redis keys, set expiration and memory-eviction rules, build a rate limiter or queue, or investigate Redis health and performance.
Why use it?
Redis is fast but temporary, so using it as the main source of data or choosing the wrong structure can cause lost data, stale results, or inefficient updates.

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 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 3d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/analyze_info.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 109 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Redis

Redis is fast because it's in-memory and ephemeral — treat it as a cache/derived store, never the source of truth. The craft is choosing the data structure that makes the operation O(1), the caching pattern that stays consistent with the database, and the eviction policy that fails gracefully when memory fills.

Summarize a verbose redis-cli INFO into health + flags: redis-cli INFO | python3 scripts/analyze_info.py

Pick the structure that fits the access

Need Structure Why
cache one value / counter String (GET/SET, INCR) atomic counter for free
object with fields Hash (HSET/HGET) update one field without re-serializing
queue / recent list List (LPUSH/RPOP) O(1) ends; BRPOP blocks for a worker
unique membership Set (SADD/SISMEMBER) dedupe, set algebra
leaderboard / time-ordered Sorted Set (ZADD/ZRANGE) score-ordered, O(log n) rank
event log / fan-out Stream (XADD/XREAD) durable, consumer groups

Using a String + JSON where a Hash fits means re-reading and re-writing the whole blob to change one field. Match the structure to the operation.

Cache-aside — the default pattern

def get_user(uid):
    key = f"user:{uid}"                 # namespace:entity:id
    cached = r.get(key)
    if cached is not None:
        return json.loads(cached)       # hit
    user = db.fetch_user(uid)           # miss → source of truth
    r.set(key, json.dumps(user), ex=300)  # populate with a TTL — ALWAYS a TTL
    return user
# Wrong — no TTL: stale forever, and the key never reclaims memory
r.set(key, value)

# Correct — every cache key has an expiry; staleness is bounded
r.set(key, value, ex=300)

On write, invalidate (r.delete(key)) rather than update the cache — let the next read repopulate, so the cache can't drift from the DB. Patterns + write-through trade-offs → references/patterns.md.

Atomicity — don't read-modify-write across round trips

What ships with it

5 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 is a skill published in the GitHub repository kouroshez/coding-os (6 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 155 tokens to every session and 1,388 once invoked, about $0.0008 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.
