Redis MCP Server

What it does

• Natural-language Redis ops: string/hash/list/set/sorted-set/stream/JSON tools + pub/sub + vector search
• Official Redis server (PyPI `redis-mcp-server`, Python 3.14+), stdio transport
• Extras: docs search tool, EntraID auth for Azure Managed Redis, OpenAI Agents SDK integration

When to use it

For 'Claude, cache this' / 'store the session' / 'search this vector index' workflows — a real database-backed memory and state layer for agents, far beyond the knowledge-graph reference server.

Getting started

uvx-based (needs uv + Python 3.14+):

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

rediss:// for TLS; append ?ssl_cert_reqs=required&ssl_ca_certs=... to verify certs.

Things to know

Requires Python 3.14+ — newer than what most systems ship; install uv first and let it manage the interpreter. Write tools mutate real data; run against a dev instance or a dedicated logical DB, not production.
