description	Catalyst Cache — in-memory key-value store with TTL for ephemeral session and temporary data. Trigger on 'Cache', 'cache segment', 'cache key', 'TTL', 'segment.put', 'segment.get', or 'temporary data Catalyst'.
metadata	{"version":"2.0.0"}

How It Works

1. Get Segment ID — Use MCP (CatalystbyZoho_List_Cache_Segments) if available; otherwise retrieve it from the console or .catalystrc.
2. Load references/cache-basics.md — for SDK operations, TTL limits (48 hr max), and the segment.delete() / segment.update() gotchas.
3. String values only — All cache values are strings. Always JSON.stringify before put and JSON.parse after get.
4. TTL behavior — segment.update() resets TTL to the new value, not adds to existing. segment.delete() returns null (not an error) if the key is missing.

Triggers

Use this skill for: "Cache", "cache segment", "cache key", "cache value", "TTL", "in-memory store", segment.get, segment.put, segment.delete, "session data", "temporary data Catalyst", "cache vs Data Store", or "48-hour cache".
