Deploy to Render

Render supports Git-backed and prebuilt Docker image services. This skill covers Git-backed flows:

1. Blueprint — Generate render.yaml for Infrastructure-as-Code deployments
2. Direct Creation — Create services instantly via MCP tools

Blueprints can run prebuilt images via runtime: image, but the render.yaml still lives in a Git repo.

If no Git remote exists, ask the user to create/push one or use the Render Dashboard/API for image-backed deploys (MCP cannot create image-backed services).

Happy Path

Before deep analysis, reduce friction with these questions:

1. Git repo or prebuilt Docker image?
2. Should Render provision everything the app needs, or only the app (user brings own infra)?

Then proceed with the appropriate method.
