Setup

For a clean standalone environment:

make setup

Development Workflow

1. Create a branch for your change.
2. Make the code or documentation update.
3. Run the local checks:

make check
make build

4. Open a pull request with a short description of the change and any testing notes.

For release or handoff candidates, also run the example smoke tests against a local Redis Agent Memory stack. Both example directories are self-contained and document their Docker and runner commands.

Style

• Keep changes focused and small.
• Follow the existing src/ package layout.
• Use uv for local development and packaging.
• Prefer adding or updating tests when behavior changes.
