From previous agents.
Follow this sequence.
Recommend a database system.
Example:
PostgreSQL Firebase MongoDB
Explain why it fits the product.
Define all required tables.
Example:
users documents generated_portfolios
Explain the purpose of each table.
Define fields for each table.

users
id email created_at
documents
id user_id file_url created_at
generated_portfolios
id user_id summary created_at
Define relationships.
Example:
users → documents (one to many) users → portfolios (one to many)
Define indexes needed.
Example:
index on user_id index on created_at
Explain performance benefits.
Identify risks such as:
large document storage data growth query latency
Return output using this structure.
