Why create_odoo_module needs a policy

This tool creates new Odoo modules (code artifacts), which is a reversible Write operation. While the description is empty and lowers confidence slightly, the name and server context strongly indicate module generation rather than execution or destructive action. Module creation can be undone by deletion, making it Write rather than Destructive.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_odoo_module' indicates it creates module artifacts. The server context shows sibling tools include 'create_odoo_model', 'create_odoo_view', 'create_owl_component', all in a module development workflow.

How to control create_odoo_module

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Odoo Dev MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_odoo_module:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_odoo_module": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_odoo_module_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create_odoo_module stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Odoo Dev MCP — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
