* Tab 2 — Library Shelf and Bookmarks: Scans real home folders (Downloads,

  page counts, and SQLite reading progress and bookmarks so you can resume
  right where you left off.
* Tab 3 — EXIF / Image Metadata and Export: Inspects live image dimensions,
  color depth, format, EXIF camera tags, and SHA-256 hash, and extracts the
  current page cleanly to your home directory.
