Usage
Bind the menu to a key (~/.config/hypr/bindings.lua):
o.bind("SUPER", "R", "exec, omarchy-shell shell summon bibek.readest")
Type to filter, Enter opens the selected book in Readest, Escape closes. Move with Up/Down, Ctrl+K/Ctrl+J, or Ctrl+P/Ctrl+N, jump with PageUp/PageDown.

The library is read from ~/.local/share/com.bilingify.readest/Readest/Books by default. Override it in ~/.config/omarchy/readest.json (watched live, so edits apply instantly):
