What is render-migrate-from-heroku?

Migrate from Heroku to Render by reading local project files and generating equivalent Render services. Triggers: any mention of migrating from Heroku, moving off Heroku, Heroku to Render migration, or switching from Heroku. Reads Procfile, dependency files, and app config from the local repo. Optionally uses Heroku MCP to enrich with live config vars, add-on details, and dyno sizes. Uses Render MCP or Blueprint YAML to create services.

Heroku to Render Migration

Migrate from Heroku to Render by reading local project files first, then optionally enriching with live Heroku data via MCP.

Prerequisites Check

Before starting, verify what's available:

  1. Local project files (required) — confirm the current directory contains a Heroku app (look for Procfile, app.json, package.json, requirements.txt, Gemfile, go.mod, or similar)
  2. Render MCP (recommended) — check if list_services tool is available. Required for MCP Direct Creation (Step 3B) and automated verification (Step 6). Not required for the Blueprint path — the Render CLI and Dashboard handle generation, validation, and deployment.
  3. Heroku MCP (optional) — check if list_apps tool is available

If Render MCP is missing and the user needs it, guide them through setup using the MCP setup guide. If Heroku MCP is missing, note that config var values and add-on plan details will need to be provided manually.

Migration Workflow

Execute steps in order. Present findings to the user and get confirmation before creating any resources.
