Install

skills is a generic installer for any repository of Claude agent skills -- it reads upstash/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.

From the repository

Provision a zero-config, no-signup, temporary Upstash Redis database for an AI agent with a single POST to https://upstash.com/start-redis, with no account, API key, or SDK setup required. Use when an agent needs scratch Redis right now and the user has not provided credentials, for short-term memory across tool calls, conversation history, a sub-agent work queue, ranked recall, or a quick prototype or demo. Covers idempotent creation and re-fetching credentials, calling the database through the body-style REST API or the official SDKs, and telling the user how to claim it. The database lives 3 days unless the user claims it; not for production data, PII, or secrets.
