Why layout_module_dependencies needs a policy

The name suggests this tool reads and presents module dependency information. No description is available to confirm, but 'layout' typically implies a read/display operation rather than modification. Given the server context of Odoo module development, this likely retrieves or visualizes dependency graphs. Confidence is low due to empty description.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'layout_module_dependencies' and empty description; 'layout' suggests rendering/displaying dependency information

How to control layout_module_dependencies

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 layout_module_dependencies:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "layout_module_dependencies": {}
  }
}

layout_module_dependencies is read-only, so it stays allowed — but 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.
