## When it is useful

Run the Upstash CLI (`upstash`) against the Upstash Developer API for Redis, Vector, Search, QStash, and teams, with non-interactive commands and JSON output for scripts, CI, and agents. Use when creating, listing, renaming, or deleting Redis databases, changing plans, regions, TLS, eviction, auto-upgrade, or budgets, managing backups, running Redis commands with `upstash redis exec`, creating or inspecting Vector and Search indexes, managing QStash instances and tokens, managing team members, reading usage stats, or automating any Upstash account operation from the terminal. Also use when the user asks how to provision or manage Upstash resources without the console.

## The Catch

needs API token; CI/agent oriented.
