Redis Development

A structured repository for creating and maintaining Redis development guidelines optimized for agents and LLMs.

Structure

• rules/ - Individual rule files (one per rule)
  • _sections.md - Section metadata (titles, impacts, descriptions)
  • _template.md - Template for creating new rules
  • _contributing.md - Contribution guidelines (excluded from build)
  • prefix-description.md - Individual rule files
• metadata.json - Document metadata (version, organization, abstract)
• AGENTS.md - Compiled output (generated)
• SKILL.md - Skill definition and entry point
• README.md - This file

Getting Started

1. Install dependencies from the repo root:

   npm install
   

2. Validate rule files:

   npm run validate
   

3. Build AGENTS.md from rules:

   npm run build
   

Creating a New Rule

1. Copy rules/_template.md to rules/prefix-description.md
2. Choose the appropriate area prefix:
   • data- for Data Structures & Keys
   • ram- for Memory & Expiration
   • conn- for Connection & Performance
   • json- for JSON Documents
   • rqe- for Redis Query Engine
   • vector- for Vector Search & RedisVL
   • semantic-cache- for Semantic Caching
   • stream- for Streams & Pub/Sub
   • cluster- for Clustering & Replication
   • security- for Security
   • observe- for Observability
3. Fill in the frontmatter and content
4. Ensure you have clear examples with explanations
5. Run npm run build (in the build package) to regenerate AGENTS.md

Rule File Structure

Each rule file should follow this structure:

---
title: Rule Title Here
impact: MEDIUM
impactDescription: Optional description
tags: tag1, tag2, tag3
description: Rule Title Here
alwaysApply: true
---

## Rule Title Here

Brief explanation of the rule and why it matters.

Incorrect: (description of what's wrong)

# Bad code example

Correct: (description of what's right)

# Good code example

Optional explanatory text after examples.

File Naming Convention

• Files starting with _ are special (excluded from build)
• Rule files: prefix-description.md (e.g., data-key-naming.md)
• Section is automatically inferred from filename prefix
• Rules are sorted alphabetically by title within each section

Impact Levels

• HIGH - Significant performance improvements or critical security practices
• MEDIUM - Moderate performance improvements or recommended patterns
• LOW - Incremental improvements

Scripts

(Run these from the repo root)

• npm run build - Compile rules into AGENTS.md
• npm run validate - Validate all rule files
• npm run dev - Build and validate (if configured)

Contributing

When adding or modifying rules:

1. Use the correct filename prefix for your section
2. Follow the _template.md structure
3. Include clear bad/good examples with explanations
4. Add appropriate tags
5. Run npm run build to regenerate AGENTS.md
