Get field definitions for an Odoo model.
AI agents call odoo_fields_get to retrieve information from MCP Odoo Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves field metadata and schema information from an Odoo model. Getting field definitions is a read-only, non-mutating operation with no side effects. It poses minimal security risk as it only exposes structural information about models, not sensitive data or executable actions. While it could inform subsequent malicious operations, the tool itself performs no writes, deletions, or code execution.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'odoo_fields_get' and description 'Get field definitions for an Odoo model' indicate a retrieval operation that returns metadata about model structure without modifying data.
