Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more
The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This server provides 7 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
Managing projects means clicking through five different dashboards.
Today, managing a single client engagement is a nightmare of tab switching. You start in Odoo CRM to check the sales pipeline, jump to the Projects module to see milestones, then open the Task list just to find out who's responsible for the next deliverable. If you need to log time, you have to manually copy IDs from one screen and paste them into another.
With this MCP server, that process vanishes. You tell your agent: 'Check Project X status and log 3 hours.' The tool runs multiple background steps—it finds the project ID, lists the relevant tasks, and logs the time—all without you ever leaving your chat window. It just works.
Odoo Project MCP Server: Manage projects and track time.
The biggest manual loss is reconciliation. When it's time to bill the client, you have to manually cross-reference what was worked on (your notes) against the tasks that were completed, which are spread across multiple records. It’s slow and error-prone.
Now, your agent handles the entire loop. You just tell it to log time, pointing to the task name. The system runs `odoo_log_timesheet`, linking the hours directly to the correct project ID and task ID in a single move. Your audit trail is always perfect.
What you can do with this MCP connector
You don't gotta jump between a dozen tabs just to manage a client gig or log some hours. This agent plugs your AI client straight into Odoo’s project management suite. You handle the whole lifecycle—from setting up the initial record right through logging the final billable hour—all without ever leaving your chat window.
It turns complicated module switching into simple talk.
Managing Your Projects
You can start by creating a new project record with odoo_create_project, specifying the title and linking it to an existing client or partner if you've already got them set up. Need an overview of everything going on? You use odoo_list_projects to get a quick summary of all active projects; this list gives you the manager, customer, task count, and date range for every single one.
Handling Tasks and Deliverables
When it's time to kick off work, you add new deliverables or tasks using odoo_create_task. You specify which user is assigned it and what the hard deadline is. To get a full picture of where everyone stands, you call odoo_list_tasks—you get a detailed list showing every task across all projects, including the assignee, its Kanban stage, priority level, progress percentage completed, and due date.
If something changes on an existing job, don't sweat it; you can update attributes using odoo_update_task. This lets you rename the task, change its priority, or move the scheduled deadline.
Tracking Time and Billing
For logging time, you use odoo_log_timesheet to record hours spent. You'll need the specific project ID, the associated task ID, how many hours were worked, and a brief description of what you did. To review what got logged in the first place, you run odoo_list_timesheets. This generates a full report detailing who worked on what, for which project and task, showing the total hours worked and the date it was logged.
This agent lets your AI client do all that heavy lifting. You're talking natural conversation to manage everything from initial project setup through detailed time tracking. It’s efficient.

How Odoo Project MCP Works
- 1 First, prompt your agent to list or create the relevant project using
odoo_list_projectsorodoo_create_project. This establishes the core context. - 2 Next, request specific actions—like listing tasks (
odoo_list_tasks) or logging time (odoo_log_timesheet). The agent uses the IDs found in the previous step to execute the action. - 3 The server returns the structured data (e.g., a list of overdue tasks or the confirmation of logged hours) directly into your chat, letting you take the next action.
The bottom line is that this system manages state by chaining API calls together—you don't manually track IDs; the agent does it for you.
Who Is Odoo Project MCP For?
Project Managers, Account Executives, and Operations Analysts. This tool solves the painful problem of context switching. You shouldn't have to jump from your CRM to a dedicated project dashboard just to log time or check task status. It keeps all Odoo data accessible inside your chat window.
Uses the server to get an immediate overview of all projects, identify bottlenecks using odoo_list_tasks, and ensure team members are tracking hours correctly via odoo_log_timesheet.
Quickly checks the status of client-specific projects, finds contact details, and records initial time spent on discovery calls using chat prompts.
Runs reports to reconcile timesheets against planned resources by querying odoo_list_timesheets across multiple departments at once.
What Changes When You Connect
- Centralized Visibility: Instead of clicking through 5 different tabs to see project status,
odoo_list_tasksgathers assignee, Kanban stage, progress %, and deadlines into one list view. You get the full picture instantly. - Accurate Time Capture: Logging hours is simple. Use
odoo_log_timesheetby referencing the task name and estimated time. This ensures billing records are immediately tied to a project and task ID. - Project Lifecycle Management: Don't forget setup steps. You can kick off work using
odoo_create_project, then build out the required milestones withodoo_create_task—all in sequence without leaving your agent chat. - Instant Status Updates: Need to reschedule a key deliverable? Use
odoo_update_task. This tool lets you change priority or move the deadline instantly, keeping project timelines accurate for everyone. - Full Audit Trail: Review exactly who worked on what and when. Running
odoo_list_timesheetsprovides an immediate, comprehensive view of resource allocation across all current projects.
Real-World Use Cases
Project Kickoff and Task Assignment
A client signs the deal. Instead of opening Odoo and manually creating a project, you tell your agent: 'Create a new project for Acme Corp.' The agent runs odoo_create_project. Next, it adds the first three deliverables using odoo_create_task with assigned owners and deadlines.
End-of-Day Time Reconciliation
You finished a deep dive on Client X's billing model. You tell your agent: 'Log 4 hours for the Project X task, detailing the Q3 revenue analysis.' The agent uses odoo_log_timesheet, attaching the time directly to the correct task ID and project.
Mid-Project Status Check
It's Monday morning. You ask your agent: 'What tasks are overdue for Project Y?' The agent runs odoo_list_tasks and returns a filtered list showing all items that have passed their deadline, letting you prioritize.
Client Meeting Follow-up
You just finished talking to a partner about scope creep. You tell your agent: 'Update the main deliverable task in Project Z; change its name and move the deadline by one week.' The agent uses odoo_update_task.
The Tradeoffs
Treating Odoo like a single database table.
Trying to dump all project, task, and time data into one massive request. You get an unusable mess because the API expects specific IDs (e.g., Project ID) for each operation.
→
Always start by listing what you need first. Run odoo_list_projects to find the correct Project ID. Then use that ID when running odoo_create_task or logging time with odoo_log_timesheet. Build your workflow step-by-step.
Assuming a task exists.
Telling the agent to log time against 'The Q3 Review' without first knowing its assigned Task ID. The call fails because it can't find the required internal reference number.
→
Before logging time, run odoo_list_tasks and confirm the full task name and status are correct. This gives you the exact IDs needed for a successful odoo_log_timesheet.
Bypassing project structure.
Creating tasks that aren't linked to any official client project, making them orphans in your record system. This messes up reporting and billing visibility.
→
Always confirm the parent context first. Use odoo_list_projects to find the right Project ID, then ensure you pass this ID when calling odoo_create_task. It keeps everything clean.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this server if your workflow requires managing complex relationships: Project (parent) -> Task (child) -> Time Log (leaf). You need to read status, create new items, and update existing records in sequence.
Don't use it if you only need to view static data. If you just want a simple list of contacts or sales orders without any task management, another connector is better. This tool excels at the action phase—when your workflow requires logging work, setting deadlines, or updating statuses across multiple linked records. It’s built for active resource allocation and billing processes.
