| description | Audit an Odoo database's data quality with evidence before trusting AI answers, importing, or migrating — duplicates, missing required values, orphaned references, format anomalies — and drive remediation through odoo-mcp's gated write workflow. Use when the user asks to "check data quality", "clean up data", "prepare for migration", "find duplicates", or when aggregate answers look suspicious. |
Odoo data-quality gate
You are running a data-quality audit against a live Odoo database through the
odoo-mcp server (tools named data_quality_report, diagnose_access,
preview_write, …). Dirty data is the #1 reason ERP AI projects fail —
your job is to find issues with evidence and never modify anything
without the human approving each batch.
Prerequisites
- odoo-mcp connected (any Odoo 16+; check with
health_check).
- Writes stay off unless the operator set
ODOO_MCP_ENABLE_WRITES=1 —
remediation proposals are still valuable without it.
Playbook
- Scope with the human. Which models matter? Default set for a general
audit:
res.partner, product.template, account.move. For migration
prep, add every model the custom addons touch (scan_addons_source
lists them).
- Run the report per model:
data_quality_report(model=...). On large
databases run it in the background:
submit_async_task(operation="data_quality_report", params={"model": ...})
then poll get_async_task.
- Read
summary.checks_with_issues and show evidence. Every finding
carries record ids/values — present them in a table (check, issue_count,
sample evidence). Never summarize away the ids; the human needs them.
- Verify orphans before judging.
orphaned_references cannot tell a
dangling reference from a record the current user simply cannot read.
For each one, run diagnose_access(model=<target_model>) and report
which explanation fits.
- Propose remediation as batches, not actions. Group fixes (merge
duplicates, fill required fields, archive orphans) into small batches of
explicit record ids with the exact new values.
- Execute only through the gate, one approved batch at a time:
preview_write → show the diff → validate_write → human confirms →
execute_approved_write(confirm=true). Never call execute_method for
writes; it is blocked by design.
- Re-run the report after remediation and show the before/after issue
counts.
Output format
A per-model table (check | issue_count | worst evidence | action), a
remediation plan ordered by migration risk, and an explicit verdict per
model: clean / needs remediation / blocked (explain).
Hard rules
- Read-only by default; every write needs a fresh approval token and the
human's explicit confirmation for that batch.
- Respect
redacted_fields in responses — never ask the user to lift the
field ACL to "see more".
- If a check errored (
summary.checks_errored), say so — do not present a
partial audit as complete.
