This technical module provides the base infrastructure for defining AI
tools in Odoo. It allows other modules to register callable functions as
AI tools, which can then be used by MCP servers, automation flows, or
any AI-native integration.
This module is technical, however, it adds some specific functions that
might be used in glue modules.
For example, if we want to add on sales a functionality to find the
sales on a period, we should do:
<odoo>
<record model="ai.tool" id="total_sale_order_tool">
<field name="name">total_sale_order</field>
<field
name="description"
>Calculate the total amount of sale orders within a date range and optionally for a specific customer.</field>
<field name="model_id" ref="model_sale_order" />
<field name="function_name">_mcp_total_sale_order</field>
</record>
</odoo>
from odoo.addons.ai_tool import aitool
class SaleOrder(models.Model):
_inherit = "sale.order"
@aitool(
input_schema={
"start_date": {"type": "date"},
"end_date": {"type": "date"},
"customer_id": {"type": "integer"},
},
required_inputs=["start_date", "end_date"],
output_schema={
"amount_total": {"type": "number"},
},
)
def _mcp_total_sale_order(self, start_date, end_date, customer_id=None):
domain = [("date_order", ">=", start_date), ("date_order", "<=", end_date)]
if customer_id:
domain.append(("partner_id", "=", customer_id))
orders = self.read_group(domain, ["amount_total"], [])
return {
"amount_total": (orders[0]["amount_total"] or 0) if orders else 0,
}
Be aware that this kind of elements must allways return a dict. All the
elements will be defined in output_schema.
Also, for the signature of the functions, all fields must be in the
inputs with the exception of record. This argument is protected and is
used to define integrations with automation. This argument is required
in generic_model and record tools.
On generic_models we are expecting this value because we want to
do a specific action with the model.
