I add files to Calibre from other computers by adding them to a folder ("Add2Calibre") in my dropbox folder but not inside the Calibre folder. I set Calibre to automatically add files in that folder. (Add a file to that folder on another computer results in the file appearing in the folder on the Calibre computer and then Calibre noticing the added file.)
This is the strategy I use. Maybe it will work for you.

That sounds pretty good, I'll try moving my calibre management server to a linux docker container, share out the storage path over SMB, and have my PCs autoimport from the share. Thanks
