FAQ

How the connector behaves

  • 01

    Can my AI change the status of a work order?

    No. This MCP only allows the AI to read data from Odoo. You must update statuses manually in Odoo.

  • 02

    Can the AI create new manufacturing orders?

    No. The current tools only support listing and retrieving existing order information.

  • 03

    How real-time is the data?

    The data is as real-time as your Odoo instance. Every time the AI runs a tool, it fetches the latest state from your database.

  • 04

    Does the AI see my entire Odoo database?

    No. The AI only accesses the specific manufacturing and work order data required to answer your questions.

  • 05

    Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?

    Yes. Any MCP-compatible client can use this connector once it is connected via Vinkius.
