Would be nice for those more Postgres-friendly shops (like where I work). Definitely a nice-to-have.

Research direction
The repository currently uses SQLite via the sqlite3 module. To add Postgres support, investigate the current database abstraction layer in the codebase (likely in db.py or similar). Determine if an ORM like SQLAlchemy is suitable or if a lightweight adapter is preferred. Review any existing tests for database interactions and plan to add Postgres specific connection handling and schema adjustments.
