## What redis does, in the publisher's words

Inspect and work with Redis: keys, values, TTLs, hashes, lists, sets, streams, memory, and diagnostics, via Redis' official MCP server (redis-mcp-server).

An Agent Plugin (spec 1.0.0).

A plugin that pairs Redis' official MCP server with focused skills for inspecting data, diagnosing problems, analyzing memory, and understanding streams.

- First-party upstream: redis-mcp-server (Redis' own MCP server).
- Rich tool set: 50+ tools covering strings, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets, streams, JSON, and diagnostics.
- Skills add discipline: read-first workflows; mutations require explicit user intent (the server can write; the skills keep you honest about it).
- Server: redis: stdio, uvx --from redis-mcp-server==0.5.1 redis-mcp-server --url redis://localhost:6379/0 (pinned).
- Skills: inspect-redis, diagnose-redis-data, inspect-streams, analyze-memory-state.
- Python with uv/uvx (server fetched on demand).

## Skills

- analyze-memory-state: Analyze Redis memory usage: identify the biggest keys, largest data structures, key counts per type, and candidates for eviction or expiry. Use when Redis memory is high, evictions are occurring, or when optimizing storage.
- diagnose-redis-data: Diagnose Redis data problems: missing keys, wrong types, stale or expiring values, and mismatches between writers and readers. Use when an application cannot find a value, reads the wrong one, or Redis behavior is surprising.
- inspect-redis: Inspect Redis keys and values: scan keys by pattern, read values of any type, check TTLs and types, and summarize what is stored. Use when asked what is in Redis, whether a key exists, or why a value looks wrong.
- inspect-streams: Inspect Redis streams: read entries, check stream length and consumer groups, and understand consumer group state. Use when debugging stream consumers, checking what was published, or verifying a stream-based pipeline.

Descriptions come from the frontmatter of each SKILL.md, punctuation lightly normalized.

## MCP servers

- redis: transport: stdio; command: uvx --from redis-mcp-server==0.5.1 redis-mcp-server --url redis://localhost:6379/0
