What it does
A hosted MCP server run by Redis at redis.io/mcp that lets an AI agent look things up in the official Redis documentation instead of relying on what the model remembers. It has three read-only tools: search the docs index, fetch a page or a single section by its id, and ask for a short answer with citations. It needs no account, key, local Redis or setup, and the Redis plugins for Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT and Cursor add it automatically. Each query is sent to redis.io. It does not connect to your own Redis data.

- Fetch a docs page or section by id
