WHAT IT DOES

What ppm_risk_start_analysis does on Qod Ppm Odoo

AI agents invoke ppm_risk_start_analysis to trigger actions in Qod Ppm Odoo. 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.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why ppm_risk_start_analysis needs a policy

This tool executes a state machine transition with side effects that modify risk workflow status. While not destructive (the change is reversible via other transitions like ppm_risk_* reset operations) and not a simple write (it invokes specialized workflow logic beyond CRUD), it qualifies as Execute because it triggers Odoo workflow actions whose downstream consequences depend on system state.

From the tool's definition Tool performs a state transition ('identified' to 'analyzing') on a risk object, which triggers workflow logic and potentially downstream operations in the Odoo PPM system.
