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'.

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". References Reference Load when the query is about… references/cache basics.md SDK operations (get, put, delete, update), Segment ID, 48hr TTL max, string only values, segment.delete() null gotcha, segment.update() TTL gotcha
