What it does

Database Redis is an agent skill from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. Optimize Redis as cache and coordination infrastructure with TTL, eviction, and latency-aware key design. Use when implementing Redis caching, key invalidation, or Redis performance work.

Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json`, `references/best-practices.md` and `references/checklist.md`).

It sits in Databases, covering Caching. It works with Redis. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Agent Skills Standard and Best Practice for Programming Languages, Frameworks that help our AI Agent follow best practies on frameworks and programming laguages. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Implementing Redis caching
  • Key invalidation
  • Redis performance work

Example prompts

  • “/database-redis”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b529c2d. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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

Database Redis loads about 560 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 221 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~560
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.7k

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.

Redis Best Practices

Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)

Redis is fast only when key shape, TTL ownership, and command complexity are explicit.

Rules

  • Namespace keys by product/domain and entity.
  • Give cache keys a TTL or a documented reason not to expire.
  • Pick eviction policy to match workload: allkeys-lru for general caches, volatile-lru for mixed persistent/ephemeral data. Monitor hit rate and evictions.
  • Avoid slow or unbounded commands in hot paths; prefer SCAN over KEYS and UNLINK over DEL for large-key deletion. lazyfree settings help background reclamation.

Verify

  • Key naming identifies owner and invalidation scope.
  • TTL or eviction policy exists for non-durable data.
  • Large reads use bounded range/scan patterns.
  • Connection timeouts and pool settings are explicit.
  • Critical state does not exist only in Redis.

Anti-Patterns

  • No sole truth in Redis: Always persist critical data to durable primary database.
  • No large blobs: Split values > 100KB into smaller keys or use Hashes for field access.
  • No JSON for objects: Use HSET for object fields to enable O(1) access without full decode.
  • No TTL-less keys: Set TTL or eviction policy on all non-permanent keys to prevent unbounded growth.
  • No KEYS in app paths: use SCAN or explicit index keys.

To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/database-redis, .gemini/skills/database-redis, .github/skills/database-redis and .opencode/skills/database-redis in your project.

What does Database Redis need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Database Redis is instructions for the agent only.

Does Database Redis access the network?

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.

Is Database Redis safe to install?

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.

How many tokens does Database Redis use?

About 560 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.2k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 1.1k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
