Add Redis Iris

Add Redis Iris

Inspect, install, route. Do not rewrite the agent.

1. Find the agent

Locate:

• The turn: where the model is called (invoke, Runner.run, generate_content, agent.run, kickoff, chat.completions.create, messages.create).

• Tool registration: where tools are defined and handed to the model.

• User and session ids: where the request's user id and thread or session id live.

• More than one loop (a hand-written loop and a framework, or two frameworks)? Create the product objects once in a module with no framework imports, wire each loop at its own seam, and convert one loop at a time. Do not pick the loop for the user.

2. Detect the framework

Search imports:

Note the version from the lockfile. Product skills look up that version's API over MCP.

3. Find what it lacks

If the user named a product, use that. If unclear, ask once, listing what you found.

Lens goes next to any product, or on its own: it traces the turn, and every Iris product traces itself inside it. Offer it alongside whatever else you add.

4. Install

• uv.lock or [tool.uv] present: uv add redis-iris.

• Poetry: poetry add redis-iris.

• Otherwise add redis-iris to the project's requirements file.

If resolution fails on pre-releases, retry with uv add --prerelease=allow redis-iris. Confirm: uv run python -c "import redis_iris; print(redis_iris.__version__)".

5. Route

Follow each chosen product skill. More than one product: each skill adds its own calls. Optionally build them from one config with Iris.from_env() (iris.agent_memory(), iris.agent_playbooks(), iris.context_gateway(), iris.intent_router()).

Ask once whether the services run on Redis Cloud or a self-managed suite, then write the project's iris.toml profile. Only the iris CLI reads iris.toml; the app reads env vars. It holds URLs only: a token in TOML makes the CLI exit 2. Select the profile with IRIS_CONFIG=./iris.toml and IRIS_PROFILE=cloud or IRIS_PROFILE=suite.

Redis Cloud. The person fills .env from the console: IRIS_<PRODUCT>_URL, its ID and _API_KEY per product.

[profiles.cloud]
kind = "cloud"
console_url = "https://cloud.redis.io"

[profiles.cloud.agent_memory]
url = "https://gcp-us-east4.memory.redis.io"  # the data-plane URL from the console

Self-managed suite. The operator's tokens go in .env.admin, never the app's .env; service create --write-env .env writes the app's .env.

[profiles.suite]
kind = "self-managed"

[profiles.suite.agent_memory]
service_url = "https://memory-admin.example.com"  # control plane: the CLI calls it for service create and check
url = "https://memory.example.com"  # data plane: what the agent calls
identity_url = "https://memory-identity.example.com"  # Identity Service that mints the agent's keys

Add one table per product the app uses: agent_memory, agent_playbooks, context_gateway, intent_router. [profiles.suite.context_gateway] has no url: service create --write-env writes the Gateway's endpoint. A suite with one shared Identity Service sets [profiles.suite.identity] url once instead of each identity_url. IRIS_<PRODUCT>_SERVICE_URL, IRIS_<PRODUCT>_URL and IRIS_<PRODUCT>_IDENTITY_URL override the profile.

Rules

• Keep the user's framework, graph, and prompts. Smallest diff.

• Never guess framework APIs from memory. Look them up over MCP (see each product skill).

• Only use APIs in redis_iris. redis_iris.integrations.langgraph.attach (extra redis-iris[langgraph]) and redis_iris.integrations.adk.attach (no extra) exist; there is no IrisTool, iris.tools(), or iris.turn().

• The SDK raises on a missing setting or an outage. Ask whether a product failure may fail the turn; most production agents catch it and continue with an empty block.

• Never commit secrets.
