Render MCP, Render's official MCP server

• Lists the services in your Render workspace

  Shows every web service, static site, cron job and worker in the selected workspace, with preview services if you ask.

  Try: “List my Render services”

  Network · list_services

• Shows the settings and status of one service

  Returns the details of one service, such as its type, region, plan, branch and URL.

  Try: “Show me the details of my api-server service”

  Network · get_service

• Finds log lines by service, level, text, status code or time

  Searches a resource's logs with filters such as error level, request path, status code, text and a time range.

  Try: “Pull the most recent error-level logs for my API service”

  Network · list_logs

• Shows deploys, restarts, failures and scaling events for a service

  Lists what happened to a service over time, including out-of-memory kills, failed health checks and other reasons a service went down that do not show in logs.

  Try: “Why did my worker restart last night?”

  Network · list_events

• Shows CPU, memory, traffic, response times and connections over time

  Fetches metrics for a service, Postgres database or Key Value store over the last 30 days. Response times need a Pro workspace or higher.

  Try: “What was the busiest traffic day for my service this month?”

  Network · get_metrics

• Lists past deploys for a service

  Shows a service's deploy history so you can see when each deploy ran and whether it succeeded.

  Try: “Show the last five deploys of my web service”

  Network · list_deploys

• Shows the details of one deploy

  Returns the status, commit and timing of a single deploy.

  Try: “Why did the latest deploy of my API fail?”

  Network · get_deploy

• Starts a new deploy of a service, optionally clearing the build cache

  Redeploys a service right away. Services with auto-deploy already deploy on each push, so this is for deploys that would not happen on their own.

  Try: “Redeploy the API service and clear the build cache”

  Write · trigger_deploy

• Runs a read-only SQL query on your Render Postgres database

  Answers questions from your data with a read-only query. It connects over the database's external address, so an IP allowlist can block it; the hosted server has no fixed IPs to allow.

  Try: “Using my Render database, tell me which items were the most frequently bought together”

  Network · query_render_postgres

  Shows every Postgres database in the selected workspace.

  Try: “List my Render Postgres databases”

  Shows every Key Value instance in the selected workspace.

  Try: “List my Render Key Value instances”

  Network · list_key_value

• Shows the details of one Key Value instance

  Returns a Key Value instance's plan, region, memory policy and status.

  Try: “Show the details of my cache Key Value instance”

  Network · get_key_value

  Try: “Create a free Key Value instance called session-cache in Oregon”

  Write · create_key_value

• Replaces a service's environment variables

  Sets the full list of environment variables for a service. It replaces the whole list, so anything left out is removed.

  Try: “Add LOG_LEVEL=debug to my API service's environment variables”

• Lists the values a log field takes, such as which status codes appear

  Shows your workspaces so you can confirm which one the assistant should use.

  Try: “Which Render workspaces do I have access to?”

Watch out for

• It can change env vars and redeploy services

  Updating env vars replaces a service's whole list. Read what the assistant plans before you approve those calls. render.com

• Secrets can end up in the chat

  Render tries to keep connection strings out of the AI app but does not guarantee it. Avoid asking for secrets in the chat. render.com

• New services and databases cost money

  It can create paid services, databases and Key Value instances. Name the plan you want in your prompt. github.com

• It cannot delete anything

  Deletes, scaling and most settings changes still need the Render Dashboard or API. render.com
