Skill instructions
Render MCP Server The Render MCP server lets AI coding tools manage Render services, databases, deploys, logs, and metrics directly. This skill covers setup, authentication, workspace selection, the tool catalog, and troubleshooting. Action skills (render-deploy, render-debug, render-monitor) use MCP tools for their workflows. If MCP is not connected, set it up using this skill first. When to Use - listservices() fails or MCP tools are unavailable - First-time Render MCP setup for any AI tool - User asks how to connect their AI tool to Render - Switching workspaces or troubleshooting auth errors - Discovering which MCP tools exist and what they do Connection Details | Property | Value | |----------|-------| | URL | https://mcp.render.com/mcp | | Transport | HTTP (streamable) | | Auth | Bearer token (Render API key) | | API key page | https://dashboard.render.com/u//settingsapi-keys | | Docs | https://render.com/docs/mcp-server | Setup by Tool Cursor 1.
