Deploy to Render

Render supports Git-backed services and prebuilt Docker image services.

This skill covers Git-backed flows:

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

Blueprints can also run a prebuilt Docker image by using runtime: image, but the render.yaml still must live in a Git repo.

If there is no Git remote, stop and ask the user to either:

• Create/push a Git remote (can be minimal if only the Blueprint is needed), or
• Use the Render Dashboard/API to deploy a prebuilt Docker image (MCP cannot create image-backed services).

Prerequisites

• When sandboxing blocks the deployment network calls, rerun with sandbox_permissions=require_escalated.
• The deployment might take a few minutes. Use appropriate timeout values.
