The sample Claude Desktop config uses "REDIS_PSW" instead of the right password config "REDIS_PWD":

Kept getting authentication errors with the sample config and took some debugging time to figure this out from the source code:

https://github.com/redis/mcp-redis/blob/main/src/common/config.py#L12

In fact, the configuration reference also shows the correct password config name:
