# redis-cli — Redis Command Line Interface ## When to Use Use this skill when you need redis command-line interface (redis-cli) reference and usage guide. Use this skill whenever the user mentions redis-cli, Redis CLI, or any task involving querying, inspecting, debugging, or managing Redis from the command line. Triggers on key/value reads and writes, SCAN or keyspace... redis-cli is the primary command-line tool for interacting with Redis. It supports two modes: **command-line execution** (run a command and exit) and **interactive mode** (a REPL with tab completion, history, and hints). It also provides special modes for monitoring, latency analysis, key space scanning, and data import/export. **Official resources:** [Redis CLI Docs](https://redis.io/docs/latest/develop/tools/cli/) | [Commands](https://redis.io/commands/) | [Download](https://redis.io/downloads/) ## Prerequisites ```bash # Check if redis-cli is installed redis-cli --version # Install options: # macOS (Homebrew) brew install redis # Ubuntu / Debian sudo apt install redis-tools # CentOS / RHEL sudo yum install redis # Alpine apk add redis # Build from source (binary only) make redis-cli # Binary at: src/redis-cli #

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill redis-cli --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
