Skills
Upstash Skills are packaged instructions and resources that extend your agent's capabilities across every Upstash SDK: Redis, QStash, Workflow, Vector, Search, Ratelimit, and Upstash Box.
Find the GitHub repository here.
The upstash skill also includes the @upstash/cli reference, so one install is all your agent needs.
Available skills
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
| upstash | Combined skill covering all Upstash SDKs and the upstash-cli. |
| upstash-box-js | Sandboxed cloud containers with AI agents, shell, filesystem, and git. |
| upstash-qstash-js | Serverless messaging and scheduling via HTTP endpoints. |
| upstash-ratelimit-js | Rate limiting with the Redis Rate Limit TypeScript SDK. |
| upstash-redis-js | Serverless Redis for caching, sessions, leaderboards, full-text search. |
| upstash-search-js | Full-text search quick starts, core concepts, and TypeScript SDK. |
| upstash-vector-js | Vector database features, SDK usage, and framework integrations. |
| upstash-workflow-js | Durable workflows. Define, trigger, and manage multi-step processes. |
Install the combined upstash skill unless you only need a single SDK.
The combined upstash skill does not bloat your agent's context. Its top-level SKILL.md only contains references to the underlying per-SDK skill files, so the agent loads just the sections relevant to the task at hand.
Example prompts
- "Set up Upstash Redis in my Next.js app for session caching"
- "Create a QStash schedule that calls
/api/daily-reportevery morning at 9am UTC" - "Add rate limiting to my
/api/loginroute, 5 attempts per minute per IP" - "Build a workflow that fans out to 10 parallel steps and waits for all of them"
- "Index these product docs into Upstash Vector and wire up semantic search"
- "Create a new Redis database named
prod-cacheinus-east-1using the CLI" - "List all my Upstash databases and print their monthly costs"
Installation
Use the Agent Skills CLI to install into any compatible agent:
npx skills add upstash/skillsTo install only a specific SDK skill, append its name:
npx skills add upstash/skills/upstash-qstash-jsManaging resources
The combined upstash skill includes the full @upstash/cli command reference, so your agent can create databases, publish QStash messages, query Vector indexes, and more straight from the shell. See the CLI page for credentials and command details.
