Installation

What MCP Server for Odoo requires, how to install it, and how to check the install worked.

Requirements

• Odoo 18.0, Community or Enterprise
• AI Assistant for Odoo — Permission-Aware (technovision_ai_core)
• Odoo reachable over HTTPS from wherever your MCP client runs

Install

• Put technovision_ai_mcp in your addons path alongside the core module.
• Update the apps list and install MCP Server for Odoo.

Odoo registers one route, /mcp/v1, and adds a Connections menu under AI Assistant.

What installing it does not do

It opens no door. There is no token until somebody issues one, and every request without a valid token is refused with 401. test_no_token_exists_out_of_the_box asserts that a fresh install has none.

Serve it over HTTPS

A token is a credential. Sent over plain HTTP it is readable by anything between the client and your server. If Odoo is behind a reverse proxy, terminate TLS there and make sure web.base.url reflects the public HTTPS address - the connection instructions are generated from it.

Upgrading

Standard Odoo upgrade. Tokens, their usage counters and the audit trail are preserved. Revoked tokens stay revoked.

Uninstalling

Removes the route and the token records. Any client still holding a token will get a 404 on the endpoint rather than an answer.
