name: book-fetch description: Download ebooks (epub/pdf) from Anna's Archive and upload them to MEGA automatically. Use when the user asks to download a book, find an ebook, search for a title on Anna's Archive/libgen, or add a book to their MEGA library.

book-fetch

Search Anna's Archive, download epub/pdf, upload to mega:/Books/.

Setup (one-time)

Anna's Archive is DNS-blocked on the VPS. The /etc/hosts override is already in place:

186.2.165.77 annas-archive.li

MEGA is configured via rclone (rclone ls mega:/ to verify).

Usage

cd ~/clawd
.venv-books/bin/python3 skills/book-fetch/scripts/book_fetch.py "TITLE AUTHOR"

Options:

• --format pdf — prefer PDF over epub
• --dry-run — search only, no download
• --pick -1 — interactive result picker
• --pick N — pick result index N (default: 0)

Download Pipeline

1. Search annas-archive.li → parse data-content attributes for title/author/md5
2. Fetch annas-archive.li/md5/<md5> → find libgen.li/ads.php link
3. Fetch libgen.li/ads.php → extract get.php?md5=...&key=... direct link
4. Download file with progress bar
5. Upload via rclone copy ... mega:/Books/

Fallback: If no libgen.li mirror exists (newer books), tries Anna's Archive fast/slow download links.

Notes

• New books (2023+) may lack libgen mirrors; fast_download requires AA membership; slow_download is rate-limited
• venv: ~/clawd/.venv-books/ (requests, beautifulsoup4, lxml)
• Files cached at /tmp/books/ after download
• GitHub: https://github.com/zerone0x/book-fetch
