THE RISK

Why ee_link needs a policy

Creating symlinks in the filesystem is a system-level operation that modifies the file structure of the Odoo installation. It triggers external OS operations (symlink creation) that affect which modules are available for installation. This goes beyond a simple Write as it modifies the server's addon path configuration and can enable enterprise modules, potentially with significant system-wide effects.

From the tool's definition Create symlink for specific EE modules in the Odoo addons path (selective install)

POLICY

How to control ee_link

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Odoo Claude MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for ee_link:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "ee_link": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "ee_link_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

ee_link stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Odoo Claude MCP — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

FAQ

Questions about ee_link

What does the ee_link tool do? +

Create symlink for specific EE modules in the Odoo addons path (selective install). It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Odoo Claude MCP MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on ee_link? +

Register the Odoo Claude MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ee_link: 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 Claude MCP. Nothing to install.

What risk level is ee_link? +

ee_link is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit ee_link? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the ee_link 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.

How do I block ee_link completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for ee_link. 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.

What MCP server provides ee_link? +

ee_link is provided by the Odoo Claude MCP server (rosenvladimirov/odoo-claude-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Odoo Claude MCP tool call.

Start from Odoo Claude MCP, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
