Lightweight guidance for using the Redis Rate Limit TypeScript SDK, including setup steps, basic usage, and pointers to advanced algorithm, features, pricing, and traffic‑protection docs.

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by upstash/ratelimit-js in skills/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Quick Start

  • Install the SDK and connect to Redis.
  • Create a rate limiter and apply it to incoming operations.

Example:

import { Ratelimit } from "@upstash/ratelimit";
import { Redis } from "@upstash/redis";

const redis = new Redis({ url: "<url>", token: "<token>" });
const limiter = new Ratelimit({ redis, limiter: Ratelimit.slidingWindow(5, "10s") });

const { success } = await limiter.limit("user-id");
if (!success) {
  // throttled
}
