How do I set up Redis in Fugentic?

You add Redis in the Fugentic planner — a no-code surface for describing what your business can do — and connect it to the rest of your stack. That becomes the capability your AI agent offers, so when a customer asks an assistant for what you do, AI can find you and act on Redis for them.
