AI agents call search_holidays 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.
This tool retrieves or queries holiday information based on date range criteria. It has no side effects, does not modify data, and does not execute code or trigger external operations. It falls squarely within the Read category as a data retrieval operation. The severity is low because exposure of holiday scheduling data poses minimal risk to the system or organization.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'search_holidays' and description states 'Search for holidays within a date range'. The verb 'search' and the read-only nature of querying holiday data indicate no data modification, deletion, or execution of external operations.

search_holidays is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the search_holidays 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.
