# CommandKit Redis Integrations

## Activation guidance

Use for multi-instance or distributed coordination scenarios.

## Required filesystem expectations

- central Redis bootstrap module (for example
  `src/bootstrap/redis.ts`)
- plugin/provider wiring in startup or config layer

## Execution workflow

1. Initialize Redis client with env-based config.
2. Wire cache provider and/or synchronization storages.
3. Validate behavior across multiple runtime instances.

## Guardrails

- Keep credentials out of source control.
- Keep key naming/TTL conventions explicit and documented.
