Add Protocol Buffer definitions for data models

[Copilot]

Defines the application's data model schema using Protocol Buffers for Strategic Action Tracker.

Proto Messages

Core entities:

• StrategicGoal - Primary goal tracking entity with nested GoalReference collection
• GoalAction - Action items with status enum (Not Started, In Progress, Waiting for Reply, Completed)
• GoalEvent - Event milestones with timestamp tracking
• GoalNote - Free-form notes
• Tag - Categorization labels
• ActionTag - Many-to-many join table for actions and tags

Shared types:

• AuditEntry - Embedded audit fields (created_by, date_created, modified_by, date_modified) using google.protobuf.Timestamp

Structure

protos/
├── AuditEntry.proto
├── StrategicGoal.proto
├── GoalReference.proto
├── GoalEvent.proto
├── GoalAction.proto
├── GoalNote.proto
├── ActionTag.proto
└── Tag.proto

All definitions use proto3 syntax and the strategic_action_tracker package namespace. Foreign key relationships use int32 with _key suffix naming convention.

Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

• esm.ubuntu.com
  • Triggering command: /usr/lib/apt/methods/https (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)
