Render Deploy

PassAudited by VirusTotal on May 11, 2026.

Overview

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: render-deploy Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle is benign. All files, including the SKILL.md instructions for the AI agent, consistently describe a legitimate Render deployment workflow. Strong explicit guardrails are present, such as 'Do not attempt opaque credential discovery or unrelated environment inspection' and 'Never call undeclared endpoints or infer hidden credentials'. The skill explicitly states it does NOT read unrelated credentials, scrape dotfiles, or send project files to undeclared third-party endpoints. Data sent to declared Render endpoints (dashboard.render.com, mcp.render.com, api.render.com) is limited to repository URLs, service configuration, and environment variable names, which is necessary for its stated purpose. Local memory usage in `~/render-deploy/` requires user consent and stores only deployment-related history and preferences, not sensitive values unless explicitly provided by the user.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

What this means

If used incorrectly, the agent could create or modify cloud services or deployment configuration in your Render workspace.

Why it was flagged

The skill can direct an agent to create Render services and update environment variables, which are account-mutating deployment actions.

Skill content
`list_services`, `create_web_service`, `update_environment_variables`, and `list_deploys` map to Render MCP operations
Recommendation

Review the planned service name, repo, branch, plan, region, and environment variables before approving provisioning or updates.

What this means

A valid Render credential gives the agent delegated access to perform deployment and workspace operations.

Why it was flagged

The skill requires a Render API key or authenticated Render CLI session to act in the user's Render account.

Skill content
Required env vars: RENDER_API_KEY ... Primary credential: RENDER_API_KEY
Recommendation

Use a properly scoped Render API key where possible and avoid sharing unrelated credentials; rotate the key if you no longer need the integration.

What this means

Installing the CLI adds a third-party local binary that the agent may use for deployment operations.

Why it was flagged

The install path depends on the external Render CLI package installed through Homebrew.

Skill content
brew | formula: render | creates binaries: render
Recommendation

Install the Render CLI from the expected trusted package source and keep it updated.

What this means

Local memory may retain project names, workspace choices, repository/deployment context, and environment-variable names that influence later deployments.

Why it was flagged

The skill can persist deployment context locally for reuse across future sessions.

Skill content
Store durable context only: ... Workspace and method preference ... Stable env var inventory (names and ownership, not secret values unless user asks)
Recommendation

Allow memory only if you want persistent deployment context, and do not store secret values there unless you explicitly intend to.

What this means

Deployment configuration and workspace-scoped metadata may be sent to Render's MCP service during direct provisioning.

Why it was flagged

The skill discloses an MCP-based provisioning path that sends service configuration and workspace metadata to Render.

Skill content
https://mcp.render.com | Service creation/config requests and workspace-scoped metadata | MCP direct provisioning
Recommendation

Confirm the selected Render workspace and service configuration before using MCP direct creation.
