MCP Tools, Prompts, Resources, and Example Requests

Understand the tool categories exposed to AI, built-in prompts and resources, and safe example requests for common Odoo workflows.

Tool discovery is dynamic. A client sees only tools that remain valid for its credential scopes, connected user, available model permissions, and bundle tool controls.

Discovery and guidance

Tools	Purpose
search, fetch	Search and fetch instance playbook, glossary, and model guidance documents.
odoo_health, odoo_system_info, odoo_whoami, odoo_diagnostics	Confirm server, identity, scopes, endpoint, and effective setup.
odoo_instance_guide, odoo_semantic_glossary, odoo_resolve_question	Translate business language into likely Odoo models, fields, filters, and ambiguity notes.
odoo_list_models, odoo_get_access_rights, odoo_model_fields	Discover exposed models and inspect effective permissions and safe field metadata.

Built-in prompts

Prompt	Use
safe_odoo_read	Resolve a business question and inspect only exposed models and allowed fields.
safe_odoo_update	Perform diagnostics and metadata checks before an explicit write.
odoo_inventory_check	Investigate products, warehouses, stock, moves, and replenishment signals.
odoo_sales_assistant	Investigate customers, quotations, sales orders, activities, and follow-up context.

Built-in resources

odoo://guide — instance playbook, glossary, and exposed-model guidance.
odoo://models — current exposed models and permissions.
odoo://health — endpoint health.
odoo://diagnostics — setup and connection diagnostics.

Safe request pattern

Ask the client to identify itself with odoo_whoami.
Resolve the business question with odoo_resolve_question.
Inspect model access and fields before reading or writing.
Use a narrow domain and explicit fields.
For a write, request an explanation and explicit IDs before execution.

Example business prompts

Show open quotations older than 14 days. Explain the model and filter first, then return customer, quotation number, date, salesperson, total, and status. Do not modify records.

Summarize posted customer invoices by customer for the current quarter. Use governed aggregation instead of loading every invoice.

Find pending incoming receipts for the main warehouse and group them by vendor and scheduled week.
