Great work, this is a boring space that should be improved. The big players aren't aligned with their users, and older OS ERPs really shifted towards acting like their closed contemporaries... odoo, I am looking at you.

edit: looking into the repo, you have both MySQL and Postgress, is the plan to just use one or the other?

Plan is to consolidate on Postgres eventually. Ideally each service would be fully isolated, but practically speaking it is easier to allow them to utilize the same DB for most things. The agent service is the only service with it's own dedicated DB, and that is the PG one.
