- **[PubSub Auto-Reconnection](https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-glide/wiki/General-Concepts#pubsub-support:~:text=PubSub%20Support,Receiving%2C%20and%20Unsubscribing.)** – Seamless background resubscription on topology updates or disconnection.
- **[Sharded PubSub](https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-glide/wiki/General-Concepts#pubsub-support:~:text=Receiving%2C%20and%20Unsubscribing.-,Subscribing,routed%20to%20the%20server%20holding%20the%20slot%20for%20the%20command%27s%20channel.,-Receiving)** – Native support for sharded PubSub across cluster slots.
- **[Cluster-Aware MGET/MSET/DEL/FLUSHALL](https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-glide/wiki/General-Concepts#multi-slot-command-handling:~:text=Multi%2DSlot%20Command%20Execution,JSON.MGET)** – Execute multi-key commands across cluster slots without manual key grouping.
- **[Cluster Scan](https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-glide/wiki/General-Concepts#cluster-scan)** – Unified key iteration across shards using a consistent, high-level API for cluster environments.
- **Support for TS / CJS / MJS** – Fully compatible with modern and legacy JavaScript/TypeScript runtimes.
