trycompai/crm launched 2026-07-31 and hit 8,281 stars with the inversion 'the agent is not a feature of the CRM; the CRM is where the agent keeps its notes.' It runs on eve, Vercel's filesystem-first durable-agent framework, with 18 authored tools, 4 skills as versioned markdown, and a resumable work queue using `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` so processing continues after the browser closes. Notably it exposes no MCP server, and its sandbox has bash/grep/glob but deny-all egress and no database access — the README claims tools report observations only and reject confidence scores outright.
