Inspect model relationships and required field metadata
AI agents call inspect_model_relationships to retrieve information from Odoo MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs introspection of model schema and field definitions—a read-only operation that gathers information about data structure. No side effects, reversible operations, code execution, financial impact, or destructive actions are implied. The verb 'inspect' and reference to 'metadata' confirm this is information retrieval.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'inspect_model_relationships' and description 'Inspect model relationships and required field metadata' indicate a query/inspection operation that retrieves structural metadata about Odoo models without modifying, executing, or deleting data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Inspect model relationships and required field metadata. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Odoo MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Odoo MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for inspect_model_relationships: 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 MCP Server. Nothing to install.
inspect_model_relationships 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 inspect_model_relationships 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for inspect_model_relationships. 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.
inspect_model_relationships is provided by the Odoo MCP Server MCP server (pypi:odoo-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
