And thanks for confirming

In that case, metadata plugboards won't massage/set the formats' internal fields because you're not exporting the books through calibre. The save template for path and filename won't apply because you're externally copying direct from the calibre folder rather than saving from calibre. If you want either plugboard or save template (or both) to apply, export from calibre to the relevant folder.

That assumes your script doesn't use calibre Command Line Interface commands. If it doesn't, you can change the script to use them. I don't use the CLI, but I assume that when using the appropriate CLI syntax in a script, the relevant calibre settings would apply. If not, I'm sure someone will soon correct me.
