WHAT IT DOES

What proxy_call does on Odoo Claude MCP

AI agents invoke proxy_call 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 proxy_call is rated High

A proxy/forwarding tool that dispatches calls to internal sub-services has an unbounded blast radius. It can effectively execute any operation available on those sub-services, including destructive or financial ones, depending on what arguments are passed.

From the tool's definition "Forward a tool call to an internal MCP sub-service" — acts as a proxy/dispatcher that can invoke arbitrary internal tools

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs proxy_call 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 proxy_call, this is the rule to start with:

proxy_call Rate-limited

proxy_call 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.
