Render MCP Server

Render is a cloud hosting platform that automates deployments from Git repositories and manages web services, static sites, databases, and scheduled jobs. This provider gives you full control over your Render infrastructure through programmatic access.

Core Capabilities

Service Management: Create and configure web services, static sites, and cron jobs. Update service configurations including environment variables, scaling settings, and deployment parameters.

Database Operations: Provision and manage PostgreSQL and Redis (Key Value) instances. Execute read-only SQL queries against your Postgres databases for monitoring and data analysis.

Deployment Monitoring: Track deployment status, retrieve deployment details, and monitor the health of your services across different environments.

Observability: Access comprehensive logs with filtering capabilities, retrieve performance metrics (CPU usage, memory, response times) for all resource types, and monitor system health.

Workspace Management: Switch between different Render workspaces when working with multiple accounts or organizations.

Domain Model

Services are the primary resources (web services, static sites, cron jobs) that run your applications. Each service can have multiple deploys representing different versions. Databases (Postgres/Redis) are standalone resources that services can connect to. All resources exist within workspaces that provide organizational boundaries.

Usage Notes

Always select the appropriate workspace before performing operations if you have access to multiple. Log queries support timestamp-based pagination for handling large log volumes. SQL queries against Postgres are read-only for security. Environment variable updates merge with existing variables by default rather than replacing them entirely.
