    Reference fieldValue

    Catalog groupConnection commands
    Upstream since6.2.0 — upstream Redis/module version, not an ffkv release
    Pinned catalogRedis 8.10.0
    CLIENT UNPAUSE

    Connection state, selected database, authentication and protocol negotiation belong to the same persistent connection. RESP2 is the default; HELLO 3 selects RESP3. Streamed/unknown-length RESP3 frames are not supported.

    Source: README.md:96–120, 391–395; tests/bdd/features/connections.feature.

    All requests share the 8 MiB framing/1,024-argument ingress limit; normal RESP replies have 64 MiB wire/logical budgets with bounded nesting/value counts. Management and Lua origins impose smaller budgets. These are not a process RSS cap. Catalog inclusion is not exhaustive option or wire-format parity. See limits and compatibility.

    The following fields come from the pinned Redis metadata, not measured ffkv performance or an assertion that ffkv enforces every upstream flag. Running COMMAND INFO/COMMAND DOCS describe the current engine.

    Upstream Redis complexity: O(N) Where N is the number of paused clients

    Upstream arity: 2 (includes the command name; a negative number is a minimum).

    Command flags: ADMIN, NOSCRIPT, LOADING, STALE, SENTINEL.

    ACL categories: CONNECTION.

    Metadata source · Local snapshot: src/command_metadata.json, key client|unpause.

    These are source observations, not a test run performed by this documentation build. A tag identifies scenario intent; an extracted vector identifies a command invocation, which may intentionally produce an error. Scenarios may require setup, multiple connections, persistence, cluster nodes or native-module fixtures.

    • WRITE pauses hold may-replicate operations without holding reads (Scenario Outline) — tests/bdd/features/client_control_repair.feature:98; command tag and invocation observed.
    • WRITE pause prevents delivery until the publisher is admitted (Scenario Outline) — tests/bdd/features/client_control_repair.feature:176; invocation observed.
    • EXEC aggregates may-replicate pause classification from queued commands — tests/bdd/features/client_control_repair.feature:214; invocation observed.
    • WRITE pause delays a real mutation but permits reads and an explicit unpause — tests/bdd/features/connections.feature:304; command tag and invocation observed.

    The following JSON arrays are the test harness’s argument vectors, not shell commands. Numeric arguments are converted by the harness; objects of the form {"base64":"…"} represent decoded binary bytes, not a literal JSON command argument. Preserve scenario setup and connection ordering. See the CLI guide for shell quoting and binary stdin. No reply is invented or inferred.

    WRITE pauses hold may-replicate operations without holding reads — tests/bdd/features/client_control_repair.feature:114 (I execute:)
