  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 2 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by mart337i on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Odoo Report Design AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/mart337i/odoo-skills/tree/main/skills/odoo-report-design
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mart337i/odoo-skills.git /tmp/odoo-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/odoo-skills/skills/odoo-report-design .claude/skills/odoo-report-design
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Odoo Report Design in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Odoo Report Design on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Odoo Report Design is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Odoo Report Design

Use this skill for report presentation and rendering work. Compose it with the target version skill, odoo-website for shared QWeb/website concerns, odoo-web-testing for browser and asset verification, and odoo-migration for major-version ports.

First Move

Identify the target Odoo version, report action, model, template chain, paper format, external layout, report asset bundle, and any custom report value provider. Inspect the target version's parent templates and assets before choosing XPath anchors or CSS classes.

Workflow

  1. Define the output contract: paper size, orientation, margins, header/footer, page numbering, languages, RTL requirements, expected page breaks, and whether HTML and PDF must match.
  2. Separate data preparation from presentation. Keep business calculations in Python and use QWeb for composition, formatting, conditions, and iteration.
  3. Build the smallest stable structure around the target version's supported report wrappers, external layout, and .page boundary.
  4. Put report-only CSS and fonts in the target version's report asset bundle. Do not assume backend or website assets are available to PDF rendering.
  5. Prefer semantic anchors and small inherited changes. Avoid copying core templates when an extension is sufficient.
  6. Render representative records as HTML and PDF before calling the report complete.

Design Guardrails

  • Use escaped output by default: t-out for text and t-field for formatted model values. Treat rich HTML as an explicit, documented trust boundary.
  • Keep tables resilient to long names, translated labels, missing values, and multi-record output.
  • Prefer local, bundled assets and explicit print CSS over remote resources or browser-only behavior.
  • Treat paper dimensions, margins, DPI, fonts, and renderer availability as part of the design, not deployment details.
  • Preserve report access rules and data visibility while changing presentation.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Odoo Report Design AI skill do?

Designs and reviews Odoo QWeb HTML and PDF reports with stable layout, print-safe assets, paper formats, localization, and maintainable templates. Use when creating, redesigning, reviewing, or debugging Odoo reports, QWeb report templates, report CSS, headers, footers, tables, page breaks, or PDF rendering.

Why use Odoo Report Design on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Odoo Report Design is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Odoo Report Design in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/mart337i/odoo-skills/tree/main/skills/odoo-report-design. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Odoo Report Design?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Odoo Report Design?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Odoo Report Design with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Odoo Report Design AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by mart337i. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
