# Render Render (https://render.com) is a cloud application platform for deploying, securing, and scaling applications, from hundred-line prototypes to complex multi-service architectures. ## Start here Route according to your task: - To connect, install, set up, or configure Render for this agent environment, read https://render.com/agents.md and follow its steps in order. Treat it as a procedure, not as reference documentation. - To perform a Render platform task (deploy a service, debug a failed deploy, add a database, configure a domain, scale a service, etc.), read https://render.com/agents/tasks.md. - To retrieve documentation for a single topic, use the Documentation index below, search https://render.com/api/agent/docs-search?query={query}, or fetch the relevant page as Markdown from https://render.com/docs/{slug}.md. ## Agent interfaces - Authenticated, account-scoped platform actions (Render MCP Server): https://mcp.render.com/mcp - MCP server documentation: https://render.com/docs/mcp-server.md - MCP OAuth 2.0 authorization server metadata: https://api.render.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server - Public documentation keyword search: https://render.com/api/agent/docs-search - Public documentation retrieval as Markdown: https://render.com/docs/{slug}.md - Render REST API documentation: https://render.com/docs/api.md - Render REST API OpenAPI specification: https://api-docs.render.com/openapi/render-public-api-1.json - Render REST API reference material: https://api-docs.render.com/llms.txt - Render REST API authentication (API keys): https://render.com/docs/api.md#setup - Render webhooks documentation: https://render.com/docs/webhooks.md - Installable Render agent skills: https://render.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json ## Setup guides Use the guide that matches this agent environment and follow it in order: - Claude Desktop: https://render.com/agents/claude-desktop.md - Claude Code: https://render.com/agents/claude.md - Codex Desktop: https://render.com/agents/codex-desktop.md - Codex CLI: https://render.com/agents/codex.md - Cursor: https://render.com/agents/cursor.md - OpenCode: https://render.com/agents/opencode.md - Pi: https://render.com/agents/pi.md ## Documentation For the complete documentation corpus, use https://render.com/llms-full.txt only when the task requires broad access to the full Render documentation set. Do not fetch it for single-topic lookups (it is over 900 KB). Instead, fetch individual .md pages or use the search endpoint. ### Core Platform #### Start - [Your First Render Deploy](https://render.com/docs/your-first-deploy.md): Run your web app in minutes. -
