npx add-skill redis/redis-agent-kit

Usage

Once installed, agents load the skill automatically when your task is relevant.

Examples:

Help me choose the right data structure for a leaderboard

Optimize this Redis connection code

Implement semantic caching for my LLM app

Skill Structure

Each skill contains:
