📚 reading-assistant-for-claude - Turn EPUBs Into Useful Notes

🚀 What it does

Reading Assistant for Claude helps you turn EPUB books into clean outputs you can use right away. It can process a book into:

• Short summaries
• Key ideas and knowledge extractions
• Obsidian notes
• RAG-ready data for search and retrieval

Use it when you want to read faster, take better notes, or keep a book library in a format that is easier to review later.
