Description
Similar to LazyLibrarian, but more streamlined, support Claude normalization and library addition for ebooks: `epub`, `mobi`, and `azw3` files and allow the user to configure their preferred file format.
**Workflow**:
1. Read file metadata with ffprobe
2. Use the Hardcover API as a primary metadata provider after an initial Claude normalization
3. Apply Hardcover API response data, overwriting existing metadata
4. Allow custom AI instructions for in `.env` for final Claude polish and resend to Claude. For example, I'd like for all book descriptions to not have review content in them - remove those.
6. Using [Calibre CLI](https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/generated/en/cli-index.html), add the book to your Calibre Library with normalized metadata

Research direction
Begin with the repository's existing audiobook normalization flow, then read the linked Calibre CLI documentation and verify the Hardcover API, ffprobe, and Claude workflow described here. Done means EPUB, MOBI, and AZW3 files can be normalized with configurable instructions and added to a Calibre Library using the user's preferred format.
