Odoo MCP Server Advanced

Two tools. Infinite possibilities. Full Odoo API access.

An advanced MCP (Model Context Protocol) server implementation for Odoo ERP systems, enabling AI assistants to interact with Odoo data and functionality through the standardized Model Context Protocol.

Forked from - Thanks to LΓͺ Anh TuαΊ₯n for the excellent foundation.

🎯 Philosophy: Simplicity & Power

Connect AI assistants to Odoo with just two universal tools:

  1. execute_method - Call any Odoo method on any model

  2. batch_execute - Execute multiple operations atomically

No complexity. No limitations. Full Odoo API access.

What You Can Do

# Search employees execute_method(model="hr.employee", method="search_read", kwargs_json='{"domain": [["name", "ilike", "john"]]}') # Manage time off requests execute_method(model="hr.leave", method="search_read", kwargs_json='{"domain": [["date_from", ">=", "2025-01-01"]]}') # Read customer data with relations execute_method(model="res.partner", method="read", args_json='[[263], ["name", "country_id", "invoice_ids"]]')

Everything you need to automate, query, and manage your Odoo instance through AI.

πŸš€ Quick Start

Installation

Option 1: Traditional pip install

# From source git clone https://github.com/AlanOgic/mcp-odoo-adv.git cd mcp-odoo-adv pip install -e ".[dev]"

Option 2: Using uvx (No Installation)

# Run directly without installation uvx --from odoo-mcp odoo-mcp # Or from source directory uvx --from . odoo-mcp

Configuration

Create a .env file:

ODOO_URL=https://your-odoo-instance.com ODOO_DB=your-database-name ODOO_USERNAME=your-username ODOO_PASSWORD=your-password-or-api-key

Run Server

# STDIO (Claude Desktop) python run_server.py # SSE (Web browsers) python run_server_sse.py # HTTP (API integrations) python run_server_http.py

Claude Desktop Setup

Option 1: Using local installation

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "odoo": { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "odoo_mcp"], "env": { "ODOO_URL": "https://your-instance.odoo.com", "ODOO_DB": "your-database", "ODOO_USERNAME": "your-username", "ODOO_PASSWORD": "your-password" } } } }

Option 2: Using uvx (Simpler Alternative)

{ "mcpServers": { "odoo": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["--from", "odoo-mcp", "odoo-mcp"], "env": { "ODOO_URL": "https://your-instance.odoo.com", "ODOO_DB": "your-database", "ODOO_USERNAME": "your-username", "ODOO_PASSWORD": "your-password" } } } }

πŸ”§ The Two Tools

1. execute_method - The Universal Powerhouse

Execute ANY Odoo method on ANY model. Full API access. No limitations.

execute_method( model="<model_name>", method="<method_name>", args_json='[...]', # Positional arguments kwargs_json='{...}' # Keyword arguments )

Examples:

# Search customers execute_method( model="res.partner", method="search_read", args_json='[[["customer_rank", ">", 0]]]', kwargs_json='{"fields": ["name", "email"], "limit": 20}' ) # Create sales order execute_method( model="sale.order", method="create", args_json='[{"partner_id": 8, "order_line": [[0, 0, {"product_id": 5, "product_uom_qty": 1}]]}]' ) # Confirm order execute_method( model="sale.order", method="action_confirm", args_json='[[5]]' )

2. batch_execute - Atomic Transactions

Execute multiple operations atomically. All succeed or all rollback.

batch_execute( operations=[ { "model": "res.partner", "method": "create", "args_json": '[{"name": "New Customer"}]' }, { "model": "sale.order", "method": "create", "args_json": '[{"partner_id": 8}]' } ], atomic=True # All succeed or all fail )

Essential Resources

Before using the tools, check these resources:

  • odoo://model/{model}/schema - Field definitions, relationships, required fields

  • odoo://model/{model}/access - Your permissions (read/write/create/delete)

  • odoo://methods/{model} - Available methods for a model

  • odoo://workflows - Business workflows (Sales, CRM, Inventory, etc.)

  • odoo://server/info - Odoo version and installed modules

The Cookbook

πŸ“– COOKBOOK.md - 40+ practical examples:

  • Searching & filtering

  • Creating records

  • Updating & deleting

  • Working with relationships

  • Business workflows

  • Batch operations

  • Advanced patterns

Start here! The cookbook shows you how to accomplish anything with just 2 tools.

Prompts

User-selectable templates in Claude's menu:

  • search-customers - Find customers with filters

  • create-sales-order - Create sales orders step-by-step

  • odoo-exploration - Discover your Odoo instance capabilities

πŸŽ“ Learn by Example

Example 1: Find Employees

execute_method( model="hr.employee", method="search_read", args_json='[[["name", "ilike", "john"]]]', kwargs_json='{"fields": ["name", "job_id", "department_id"], "limit": 10}' )

Example 2: Time Off Requests

execute_method( model="hr.leave", method="search_read", args_json='[[ ["employee_id", "=", 1], ["date_from", ">=", "2025-01-01"], ["state", "=", "validate"] ]]', kwargs_json='{"fields": ["employee_id", "date_from", "date_to", "holiday_status_id"]}' )

Example 3: Create Customer + Order (Atomic)

batch_execute( operations=[ { "model": "res.partner", "method": "create", "args_json": '[{"name": "Acme Corp", "email": "contact@acme.com"}]' }, { "model": "sale.order", "method": "create", "args_json": '[{"partner_id": 123, "order_line": [[0, 0, {"product_id": 5}]]}]' } ], atomic=True )
