What it does

Upstash is an agent skill from Anil-matcha/awesome-muse-connectors. Read and write Upstash: get, set, and delete Redis keys, run command pipelines. Trigger phrases: upstash, redis.

Its SKILL.md is about 630 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `bin/upstash.py`).

It sits in Databases. It works with Upstash and Redis. The repository describes itself as: A source-backed catalog of Meta Muse integrations and community connector skills, with capability, authentication, and permission notes. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Phrases: upstash

Example prompts

“/upstash”

Requirements

Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

One credential covers one database product: reads and writes need --db-host so the request goes to the right database.
Writes (set, delete, pipeline) need confirmation with the user first, unless standing permission exists. Reads (get) need none.
Blocking commands such as BLPOP are unsupported over the REST API; do not attempt them.
The separate Upstash Developer API (account management) is out of scope for v1.
Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/upstash.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the key value.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d6dc5d8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Upstash loads about 625 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 30 tokens; SKILL.md has 220 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~30
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~625

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

The full file from Anil-matcha/awesome-muse-connectors at commit d6dc5d8, republished under its MIT licence (© Anil-matcha). 220 words, ~625 tokens.

name: upstash
description: Read and write Upstash: get, set, and delete Redis keys, run command pipelines. Trigger phrases: upstash, redis.
metadata.includeInPrompt: true
tagline: Run Redis commands over REST.
catalog_auth: Per-database token (host declared at connect time)
catalog_hosts: *.upstash.io

Upstash

Purpose

Work with an Upstash Redis database over its REST API: read keys, write keys with optional TTL, delete keys, and run batched command pipelines. Use when the user points at a specific Upstash database host.

Tooling

Every command needs --db-host (the per-database host, https assumed; must end with .upstash.io):

bash

bin/upstash.py --db-host mydb.upstash.io auth                                    # verify the token
bin/upstash.py --db-host mydb.upstash.io get --key "session:123"                 # read a key
bin/upstash.py --db-host mydb.upstash.io set --key "session:123" --value "abc"   # write a key
bin/upstash.py --db-host mydb.upstash.io set --key "otp:7" --value "4921" --ex 300  # write with 5-minute TTL
bin/upstash.py --db-host mydb.upstash.io delete --key "session:123"              # delete a key
bin/upstash.py --db-host mydb.upstash.io pipeline --commands-json '[["GET","a"],["SET","b","1"]]'  # batch commands

Auth

Provider id: upstash (credential is collected as custom.upstash)
Collection: REST token via the secure credential flow (credentials.request_api_access); each database has its own token and host. The user declares their database host (<database-id>.upstash.io) at connect time.
Allowed hosts: built at runtime from --db-host; the surrogate is only swapped for that host
Status check: bin/upstash.py --db-host <host> auth (must return "ok": true)

Operating Rules

One credential covers one database product: reads and writes need --db-host so the request goes to the right database.
Writes (set, delete, pipeline) need confirmation with the user first, unless standing permission exists. Reads (get) need none.
Blocking commands such as BLPOP are unsupported over the REST API; do not attempt them.
The separate Upstash Developer API (account management) is out of scope for v1.
Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/upstash.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the key value.
