Redis WS Discovery (v0.2.0) enables WebSocket servers and clients to discover each other via Redis pub/sub without a central registry. Each server announces its identity (e.g., host, port) to a Redis channel, and clients (or other servers) listen for announcements to build a live list of available peers. Built on ioredis (^5.4.1), shipped with TypeScript definitions, requires Node >=20. Lightweight alternative to etcd or Consul for WebSocket topologies in Redis-heavy stacks. Released under new BSD license.
