I dont need to open the book inside one note, just open the file (calibre, adobe, or word, the same for me) I want to acces it and read it.

When I add a book I focus on getting the Author and Title
exactly as I want them before I move the book from my Intake library into the destination library. Only then would I link the book folder or a format file into something like OneNote, the book directory and file names won't change if I edit the content of a format file or change the publisher, series number etc. That will only happen if I change a title or author, which is not something I would blithely do. Nor would I change a library name or move a library without a plan for dealing with the consequences.

Later, clicking that link, calibre or the OS with the prefixed app, can open the book

There would need to be a protocol handler for calibre links, i.e. something that knows what to do with a link that looks something like "calibre:///2cb0627e-f3d4-4481-8e6a-a7fb7a919ec7", as there are for links such as "onenote:///...section-id={2DA93EF0-591D-4FE2-B2A2-2A32053E0052} and "evernote:///view/.../9a96e1c8-de9c-44bf-9841-b60e9ee40830-394/".
I have no idea if a PI could advertise itself as the calibre protocol handler.
FWIW: In Evernote I make use of the Author and Book 'Permalinks' that are available from the calibre server, I could do the same in OneNote - in this respect EN and ON are more or less the same. Clicking a Book Permalink in a note takes me to the book's calibre server page in a web browser - where I can see the metadata and open a format file - obviously a server has to be running for relevant library.
