Redis MCP Server

What it does

The Redis MCP Server provides a powerful natural language bridge to Redis databases. It allows AI agents to perform complex data operations—from simple key-value storage to advanced vector searches and stream management—using plain English instructions.

Tools

• string tools: Get and set strings with expiration for caching and session management.
• hash tools: Store field-value pairs, ideal for user profiles or vector embeddings.
• list tools: Manage queues and activity feeds via append and pop operations.
• set tools: Track unique values and perform set intersections.
• sorted set tools: Maintain leaderboards and priority queues.
• streams tools: Handle event sourcing and worker-based processing.
• JSON tools: Manipulate complex nested documents with path-based access.
• query engine: Manage vector indexes and perform semantic searches.
