About Redis

What is Redis: Seamless LLM Integration & Real-Time Data Access?

Redis: Seamless LLM Integration & Real-Time Data Access is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to bridge Large Language Models (LLMs) with Redis key-value stores. This allows LLMs to perform operations like setting, retrieving, and deleting data directly from Redis databases using standardized tools, enabling real-time data interaction.

Key Features of Redis: Seamless LLM Integration & Real-Time Data Access?

Set: Store key-value pairs with optional expiration timers.
Get: Retrieve values by key for instant data access.
Delete: Remove single or multiple keys to manage data efficiently.
List: Search and list Redis keys matching specific patterns.

      "args": [
        "run",
        "-i",
        "--rm",
        "mcp/redis",
        "redis://host.docker.internal:6379"
      ]
    }
  }
}

NPX Setup

Usage with Claude Desktop

To use this server with the Claude Desktop app, add the following configuration to the "mcpServers" section of your claude_desktop_config.json:

Docker

when running docker on macos, use host.docker.internal if the server is running on the host network (eg localhost)
Redis URL can be specified as an argument, defaults to "redis://localhost:6379"

{
"mcpServers": {
"redis": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"mcp/redis",
"redis://host.docker.internal:6379"]
}
}
}

NPX

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "redis": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-redis",
        "redis://localhost:6379"
      ]
    }
  }
}
