FAQ

Questions Calibre-Web owners ask.

  • 01

    Can I browse my entire library structure through the AI?

    Yes. By using the get_opds_catalog capability, the agent retrieves the root XML feed of your Calibre-Web instance, allowing it to see categories, authors, and series as defined in your OPDS settings.

  • 02

    How do I list books from a specific custom shelf?

    You can use the get_opds_shelf capability by providing the specific shelf_id. The AI will then return the list of books and metadata associated with that particular shelf.

  • 03

    Does this support syncing my Kobo e-reader?

    Yes. If you provide your CALIBRE_WEB_KOBO_TOKEN, you can use the sync_kobo_library capability to get structured metadata and download links specifically formatted for Kobo device synchronization.
