Installation
Agent Skills CLI
npx skills add redis/agent-skillsClaude Code Plugin
You can also install the skills as a Claude Code plugin:
/plugin marketplace add redis/agent-skills
/plugin install redis-development@redisCursor Plugin
This repository also includes Cursor plugin packaging. Run this command in chat:
/add-plugin redisThe top-level skills/ directory remains the source of truth. Plugin folders symlink only the skill directories they expose.
Usage
Skills are automatically available once installed. The agent will use them when relevant tasks are detected.
