New in Render: Do more with your coding agent
Blog post from Render
Render announced updates aimed at improving how coding agents build, deploy, troubleshoot, and operate cloud applications. Its MCP server now supports browser-based OAuth authentication and enables agents to create services, query Postgres databases, inspect logs and metrics, deploy applications, and clear build caches, while an expanded CLI and more than 20 agent-specific skills support automation across Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex. The platform also reports faster Docker and Node.js build times, introduces ephemeral SSH instances for safely inspecting service builds, and adds OIDC authentication for Anthropic, OpenAI, and AWS to replace long-lived credentials. Other additions include expanded SCIM compatibility, Coralogix log streaming, configurable persistence options for Key Value instances, managed PgBouncer connection pooling and new extensions for Render Postgres, plus deployment support for the self-hostable Nanobot agent and resources on reliable infrastructure for AI agents.
