WHAT IT DOES

What open_connection_manager does on Odoo Claude MCP

AI agents invoke open_connection_manager to trigger actions in Odoo Claude MCP. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why open_connection_manager is rated High

This tool triggers an external operation — opening a GUI application on the desktop. It doesn't just read or write data; it launches/executes a desktop application process. The blast radius is medium because opening a connection manager could expose connection credentials or allow unauthorized connections to be configured, but it doesn't directly destroy data or move money.

open_connection_manager Rate-limited

open_connection_manager 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.
