**TL;DR:** CLUSTER commands are not supported on Upstash. Client-side clustering config against Upstash will fail. Fix - Disable cluster mode in your client. Configure regions in the console instead.

## The fix

1. Disable cluster mode in your client. In ioredis, use a standalone Redis instance, not Cluster. In redis-py, use Redis, not RedisCluster.

2. Remove any cluster slots configuration or startup-node lists. Point the client at the single Upstash endpoint.

3. If you chose Upstash for multi-region reads, that is the Global database feature, not Redis Cluster. Configure regions in the console instead.

## When to use this

- This covers exactly what the title says: CLUSTER commands are not supported on Upstash.
- You are setting this up for the first time, or auditing an existing setup.
- You want the key gotchas in one place before you start.

## When not to use this

- You are doing a different workflow with CLUSTER; these steps are specific to the title above.
- You need the full reference docs; this is the short path, not the manual.

## Compatibility

- Not pinned to a specific version; follows current CLUSTER behavior.
