Bring Cloud Hosting
to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect Render to Cline and start using all 10 AI tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code. No hosting, no server setup — just connect and start using.
Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Render MCP Server?
Connect your AI assistant directly to your Render cloud infrastructure via their official capabilities API. By granting your agent access to your hosting environments, you transform standard chat text into a powerful DevOps control center. Command deployments, scale back background workers to save costs, and instantiate brand-new services linked directly from your GitHub repositories without ever opening the Render dashboard.
What you can do
- Control Services & Spend — Retrieve status checks on all active web endpoints, databases, and cron jobs (
list_services). Instantly pause compute on unused projects usingsuspend_serviceand wake them back up later withresume_serviceto manage hosting costs. - Trigger & Monitor Deployments — Inspect the deployment history for a specific application (
list_deploys). Noticed a hotfix on GitHub? Tell your AI to forcefully restart the build pipeline executingtrigger_deploywhile optionally clearing the build cache. - Architect Environments — Direct the agent to dynamically provision fresh infrastructure (
create_service) pointing to a specific GitHub repository branch. Or easily swap which branch an existing project trails usingupdate_service_branch. - Clean Up Infrastructure — Quickly tear down obsolete staging instances permanently by instructing the AI via natural language to purge unwanted resources (
delete_service).
How it works
- Install the Render platform extension module in your MCP.
- Obtain your personal
Render API Keyfrom your Render Account Settings under the API Keys section. Insert it securely into the connection configuration below. - Chat with your AI using natural DevOps phrasing like: "List my web services, then suspend the one named 'old-staging-app'."
Who is this for?
- DevOps & Infrastructure Engineers — Control routing, execute cache-cleared deployments, or suspend costly non-production workers directly from your command prompt logic.
- Backend Developers — Quickly spin up private services or background workers for new architectures by just typing a repo link in your chat window.
- Startups & Indie Hackers — Save time managing platform UI. Just ask your AI companion to identify, suspend, and analyze your app deployments natively in seconds.

Frequently asked questions
Can the AI clear the cache when triggering a deploy?
Yes, absolutely. The tool trigger_deploy incorporates an optional variable explicitly created for cache management. You can command the agent: "Redeploy the web app named Node-Backend and bypass rendering cache."
Which type of new services can the AI deploy using `create_service`?
The MCP can provision and launch exactly three core resource forms utilizing GitHub repos: standard web services (web_service), private network-locked processes (private_service), and asynchronous task handlers (background_worker).
Warning: Is there a confirmation before using `delete_service`?
Since natural language agents can occasionally misinterpret parameters, invoking the text request explicitly will route straight to the Render API resulting in instantaneous destruction. Please ensure absolute clarity when pointing the AI logic toward deletion operations.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
