Valkey Contributor Reference

This skill does not replace reasoning and exploring the relevant code. It is a tool to find the nuance faster and sharper. Redis-baseline behavior is assumed and not repeated; what you read below is Valkey-specific divergence. All content targets unstable.

Quick start

make -j$(nproc)                          # build
./runtest --verbose --tags -slow         # core integration tests
./runtest-cluster                        # legacy cluster tests
./runtest-moduleapi                      # module API tests
./runtest-sentinel                       # Sentinel tests
make test-unit                           # C++ gtest unit tests
make SANITIZER=address MALLOC=libc       # ASan
