What export_records does on Odoo-MCP

AI agents call export_records to retrieve information from Odoo-MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why export_records needs a policy

Exporting records is fundamentally a read/retrieval operation: it fetches existing data and converts it to a format like CSV or Excel. No data is created, modified, or deleted. Severity is medium because bulk export of ERP records (employees, financials, etc.) can expose sensitive business data if misused.

From the tool's definition 'Export records to various formats' — retrieves and serializes existing records into an output format
