Delete records from any Odoo model
AI agents call delete_records to permanently remove resources in Odoo-MCP — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deletion of records is an irreversible operation that cannot be undone. The tool's unrestricted scope ('any Odoo model') combined with its destructive nature and the broader context of an ERP system (where records often represent critical business data like employees, financial transactions, inventory) means misuse could cause catastrophic data loss. This is the most severe category of risk.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_records' and description states 'Delete records from any Odoo model' — this explicitly performs irreversible deletion across arbitrary Odoo models without restriction.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Delete records from any Odoo model. It is categorised as a Destructive tool in the Odoo-MCP MCP Server, which means it can permanently delete or destroy data. Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Odoo- MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_records: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Odoo-MCP. Nothing to install.
delete_records is a Destructive tool with critical risk. Critical-risk tools should be blocked by default and only enabled with explicit human approval.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the delete_records rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for delete_records. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
delete_records is provided by the Odoo- MCP server (ridrisa/odoo-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Every MCP server has a record like this.
