What it does
Commandkit Cache is an agent skill from neplexlabs/commandkit. Implement deterministic caching with @commandkit/cache. Use for 'use cache' directives, cacheTag/cacheLife strategy, revalidateTag invalidation, and provider setup for memory or Redis deployments.
Its SKILL.md is about 510 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `references/00-filesystem-structure.md` and `references/01-directive-use-cache.md`).
It sits in Databases, covering Deployment and Caching. It works with Redis. The repository describes itself as: The discord.js meta-framework with features such as AI-powered command handler, analytics, feature flags, and more. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Use cache directives
- CacheTag/cacheLife strategy
- RevalidateTag invalidation
- Provider setup for memory
Example prompts
- “use cache”
- “/commandkit-cache”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Register cache() plugin.
- Add 'use cache' to deterministic async functions.
- Design tags and TTLs with clear resource boundaries.
- Pair writes with revalidateTag.
- Choose memory vs Redis based on deployment topology.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d771e6b. 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
Commandkit Cache loads about 506 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 136 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.
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.

CommandKit Cache Plugin
Activation guidance
Use for read-heavy deterministic workloads and explicit invalidation design.
Required filesystem expectations
- plugin registration in
commandkit.config.ts - cacheable functions in commands/services/helpers
- optional provider bootstrap module for Redis setup
Execution workflow
- Register
cache()plugin. - Add
'use cache'to deterministic async functions. - Design tags and TTLs with clear resource boundaries.
- Pair writes with
revalidateTag. - Choose memory vs Redis based on deployment topology.
Guardrails
- Do not cache mutation paths.
- Do not cache sensitive user-specific results without strict key design.
