Automatically syncing with Calibre Library over WiFi

Hello, last year I started looking into this, but got sidetracked and it fell off my radar.

The ultimate goal of my task is, if I have a script running that updates books in kindle library ( like when new chapters of fanfiction are added, it adds to end of mobi, instead of new document ), then the file would be replaced on the kindle, instead of having two documents with same name.

My original post:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=210219

twobob provides the basic summary of

1. Jailbreak the kindle.
2. Attach a Shell script to the wake-up event.
3. Shell script calls rsync or whatever I want.

Based on this, I have found two other threads that point in the right directions:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/arc.../t-120350.html
and
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=101847

But on both of those, there's no confirmation from OP that they got it working.


I also found this: Kindle Store Proxy
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=174403

Which was really interesting, but abandoned in 2012.
You jailbreak kindle, and have it point to your own server, and if you have the book, it serves it from there, otherwise it passes requests to amazon.

So, 2 questions.
1. Does anyone have a link to a confirmed working version of sync on wi-fi up?
2. Does anyone know of a modern version of Kindle Store Proxy, that works with Paperwhite if I decide to upgrade.
