* `NX` -- Only set the key if it does not already exist.
* `XX` -- Only set the key if it already exists.
* `KEEPTTL` -- Retain the time to live associated with the key.
* `!GET` -- Return the old string stored at key, or nil if key did not exist. An error is returned and `SET` aborted if the value stored at key is not a string.
* `GET` -- Return the old string stored at key, or nil if key did not exist. An error is returned and `SET` aborted if the value stored at key is not a string.
* `IFEQ` -- Set the key if the given value matches the existing value. An error is returned and `SET` aborted if the value stored at key is not a string.

Note: Since the `SET` command options can replace `SETNX`, `SETEX`, `PSETEX`, `GETSET`, it is possible that in future versions of Valkey these commands will be deprecated and finally removed.
