Repository

MCP server for Redis key-value store interaction. Enables AI agents to read and write data in Redis, manage keys, work with data structures (strings, hashes, lists, sets), and perform pub/sub operations. Useful for caching, session management, real-time data, and inter-service communication in distributed systems.
