Medium Risk

Why set_odoo_version needs a policy

The name 'set_' indicates a write operation that modifies state (likely the target Odoo version for development). Without a description, confidence is reduced. This appears to be configuration management rather than data creation/deletion, hence Write category. Severity is low because changing a development version preference has limited blast radius and is reversible.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'set_odoo_version' suggests modifying a configuration or state value. No description provided to confirm exact behavior.

How to control set_odoo_version

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 set_odoo_version:

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

set_odoo_version 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.
