Sets up and optimizes Managed PostgreSQL on Render—connection strings (internal vs external), creation constraints, storage autoscaling, connection limits, high availability, read replicas, backups, and MCP inspection. Use when the user mentions Postgres, PostgreSQL, Render database, connection string, DATABASE\_URL, backups, snapshots, replicas, HA, disk storage, connection pooling, or troubleshooting DB connectivity.

## From README

Deep dives live under references/. When to Use Apply this skill when the user: Configures Postgres for an app on Render (URLs, TLS, pooling) Creates or changes a database, plan, disk, or replicas Asks about backups, PITR, exports, or deleting a database Hits connection limits, SSL errors, or latency between services and DB Authors Blueprint databases / readReplicas or wires fromDatabase For deploy flows and Blueprint basics, see render-deploy and render-blueprints. For private networking between services, see render-networking. For env var patterns, see render-env-vars. Before configuring or troubleshooting an internal database connection, read references/private-networking.md.
