redis-cachingRedis caching and queue patterns. An agent skill from cohen-liel/hivemind.
Redis Caching is an agent skill from cohen-liel/hivemind. Redis caching and queue patterns. Use when implementing caching, rate limiting, session storage, pub/sub, or background job queues with Redis.
Its SKILL.md is about 870 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Caching, Rate limiting and Event-driven systems. It works with Redis. The repository describes itself as: One prompt. A full AI engineering team. Go lie on the couch. 🧠. The licence is Apache-2.0.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 918dd9b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are python).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Redis Caching loads about 873 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 71 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

Redis caching and queue patterns. An agent skill from cohen-liel/hivemind. Redis Caching is an agent skill from cohen-liel/hivemind. Redis caching and queue patterns.
Redis Caching fits situations like: implementing caching; session storage; background job queues with Redis.
Run `npx skills add cohen-liel/hivemind --skill redis-caching -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/redis-caching in cohen-liel/hivemind) into .claude/skills/redis-caching in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add cohen-liel/hivemind --skill redis-caching -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/redis-caching in cohen-liel/hivemind) into .agents/skills/redis-caching in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add cohen-liel/hivemind --skill redis-caching -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/redis-caching, .gemini/skills/redis-caching, .github/skills/redis-caching and .opencode/skills/redis-caching in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Redis Caching is instructions for the agent only. Our summary lists: Python 3.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Redis Caching is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 873 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.5k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
