Yes, if the server is running when the GUI isn't, the only thing that can activate it is the CLI version.

As for the auto add CLI command recurse, is there a modifier or additional command to tell it to delete the books once added? I think that option is in the GUI version, and was wondering how I do that with CLI -- I looked around the manual but couldn't find it...maybe I'm just not seeing it. Thank you!
That option is only for Auto-add, not for the Add books selector which this command imitates.

If the books are in a dedicated holding folder, you can simply use bog-standard
Code:
rm -r /path/to/nuked/folder/
but do be careful since you don't get a do-over!
It removes everything, whether you meant to ask it to or not.
