WHAT IT DOES

What identify does on Odoo Claude MCP

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

RISK

Why identify is rated Low

This is a read-only authentication operation that retrieves user profile data and preferences. No data is created, modified, deleted, or financial transactions are initiated. The tool has minimal blast radius—worst case it returns wrong user settings or fails silently. Classification as Read is appropriate.

From the tool's definition Tool loads existing personal settings and connections on authentication/identification. Uses verb 'Identify' and 'load', indicating data retrieval with no modification or destructive operations.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs identify safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Odoo Claude MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For identify, this is the rule to start with:

identify Allowed

identify is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "identify": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Odoo Claude MCP, apply this rule, and every identify call is checked against it from then on.
