Quick Use

Use it first, then decide how deep to go

This block should tell both the user and the agent what to copy, install, and apply first.

Add to your .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "RedisMCPServer": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "--from", "redis-mcp-server@latest",
        "redis-mcp-server",
        "--url", "redis://localhost:6379/0"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Or run standalone:

uvx --from redis-mcp-server@latest redis-mcp-server --url redis://localhost:6379/0

Restart your AI tool. Redis is now accessible to your agent.
