Thanks! It helps a lot! If I merge 1, 2 and 3 that would mean creating a service API with the Claude SDK behind to handle requests whenever some employee wants to make a read/write operation.
The write operations will be made only for the documents included in the repo if the agent allows it according to user permissions. Am I right or did I get something wrong?
I'm also thinking about "real time data" like google docs, chats, transcripts, databases, logs...
My current idea would be to keep that out of this repo and have each user to query them (if they have permissions) with their own personal account. This way the system is more simple and maybe cheaper because each employee can use their current Agent plan instead of the service API tokens that are way more expensive and difficult to limit.

What do you think about this?
