A MCP server which provides tools function to get/set key-value pairs data backed by Redis
Run MCP Server
Use docker compose to start up the server
docker compose up -d
This starts a MCP server with Redis as the backend. The server will be available at http://localhost:3000.
Interact with MCP server
Option 1: streamable HTTP client from the typescript-sdk
You can interact with the MCP server using the simple streamable HTTP client from the MCP typescript-sdk repo: https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk.git
Here is the usage:
git clone https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk.git
cd typescript-sdk
npm install
npx tsx src/examples/client/simpleStreamableHttp.ts
By default, the client will connect to http://localhost:3000 and you should see the following outputs:

Connected to MCP server
Available commands:
connect [url] - Connect to MCP server (default: http://localhost:3000/mcp)
disconnect - Disconnect from server
terminate-session - Terminate the current session
reconnect - Reconnect to the server
list-tools - List available tools
call-tool <name> [args] - Call a tool with optional JSON arguments
greet [name] - Call the greet tool
multi-greet [name] - Call the multi-greet tool with notifications
start-notifications [interval] [count] - Start periodic notifications
list-prompts - List available prompts
get-prompt [name] [args] - Get a prompt with optional JSON arguments
list-resources - List available resources
help - Show this help
quit - Exit the program
>
Then you are in the interactive prompt mode. To connect to different MCP server, just type connect [url] and press enter.
Use the list-tools command to list all available tools. There are 4 available tools:
> list-tools
Available tools:
- set: Set a Redis key-value pair with optional expiration
- get: Get value by key from Redis
- delete: Delete one or more keys from Redis
- list: List Redis keys matching a pattern
Use the call-tool <name> command to call a tool with optional JSON arguments. For example, you can add a key-value pair to Redis using the set tool:
> call-tool set {"key": "this is a new key", "value": "value for the new key"}
Calling tool 'set' with args: { key: 'this is a new key', value: 'value for the new key' }
Tool result:
Successfully set key: this is a new key
Option2: MCP-Cli
You can also use the mcp-cli command line tool to interact with your MCP server. To use it, run the following command:
npx @wong2/mcp-cli --url http://localhost:3000/mcp
This will connect to the MCP server via streamable HTTP. It will prompt you the list of available tools and allow you to call them with JSON arguments. For example:
$ npx @wong2/mcp-cli --url http://localhost:3000/mcp
✔ Connected, server capabilities: tools
? Pick a primitive ›
❯ tool(set) - Set a Redis key-value pair with optional expiration
tool(get) - Get value by key from Redis
tool(delete) - Delete one or more keys from Redis
tool(list) - List Redis keys matching a pattern
You can use cursor to navigate the list and select the desired primitive. Then, you will be prompted to enter the arguments for the selected primitive.
