Odoo × AI guides and field notes

GUIDE · DOCUMENTED

The tool contract between an AI client and live Odoo — and where governance begins.

GUIDE · DOCUMENTED

Workspace MCP URL, OAuth, read-first access, and write gates with owner approval.

GUIDE · SYNTAX CHECKED

Remote HTTP setup, native OAuth, user vs project scope, and a read-only first check.

GUIDE · IMPLEMENTATION EVIDENCE

Save a compact lesson after a verified fix, recall it as untrusted context, and check live Odoo again.

SETUP · DOCUMENTED

Human setup checklists plus copy-ready prompts for Codex, Claude Code, Gemini, Antigravity, Grok, and ChatGPT.

FIELD NOTE · IMPLEMENTATION EVIDENCE

What we learned while putting preview, policy, and a human decision in front of Odoo mutations.

ARCHITECTURE NOTE · SOURCE-BACKED ANALYSIS

A deployment decision that separates local, in-Odoo, and hosted operating responsibilities.

RADAR · OFFICIAL SOURCES

Use native agents for work designed inside Odoo; add an external gateway when several AI clients need one governed path into multiple instances.

COMPARISON · DOCUMENTED

Engineering cost, governance surface, and when a hosted control plane is the rational choice.

COMPARISON · DOCUMENTED

What you operate yourself versus what the hosted workspace endpoint already includes.

COMPARISON · DATE-CHECKED SOURCES

Date-checked public facts. Unknowns marked. No fake ratings.

COMPARISON · DOCUMENTED

How hosted gateways compare to custom bridges, raw APIs, and offline exports.

REFERENCE · RUNTIME CATALOG

The dated names returned by the hosted tools/list, with hosted versus self-hosted marked.

REFERENCE · TEST MATRIX

What ERPipe smoke-tests on Odoo 16–19 and the hosted platform limits.
