Install
skills is a generic installer for any repository of Claude agent skills -- it reads redis/agent-skills’s own structure rather than assuming one, the same way this page reads the skill’s own SKILL.md rather than assuming a format.
npx skills add redis/agent-skills
What it connects to
Unverified means a mention in the skill’s own description, not a citation. A wrong claim here costs nothing to correct and nothing to trust yet.
Maintenance
Redis Search guidance covering FT.CREATE schema design, field type selection (TEXT, TAG, NUMERIC, GEO, GEOSHAPE, VECTOR, JSON path), DIALECT 2 query syntax, FT.SEARCH / FT.AGGREGATE / FT.HYBRID command selection, vector similarity with HNSW or FLAT, hybrid retrieval combining lexical and vector ranking, RAG pipelines, zero-downtime index updates via aliases, and debugging with FT.PROFILE and FT.EXPLAIN. Use when defining a search index on Hash or JSON documents, writing FT.SEARCH queries with filters, sorting, aggregation, or vector KNN, tuning HNSW parameters, building a RAG retrieval pipeline, or troubleshooting slow or empty search results.
