If you are writing the documents on the same platform on which your calibre library resides, you could keep the writing tool files (e.g a .TYP file) in the library alongside the output file the writing tool creates (e.g a .PDF file).
Calibre will store non-ebook formats files in its book folders, like ebook formats, only
one instance of
each file type for a 'book'.
Providing the OS has .TYP files associated with Typst, calibre will invoke Typst when you View a .TYP file. You can then do the edits in Typst and save the .TYP and .PDF files from Typst to overwrite the existing files in the calibre library book folder.
I would create a new 'book' by creating a Empty book and then add a 'blank' .TYP and a 'blank" .PDF to that book.
I use MS OneNote .ONE files to keep checklists, reminders, notes etc for 'books'.
Probably not suitable if there are multiple people doing the editing.
