Lol, I do the same except I gave up tagging in Marvin because I keep forgetting to tag before moving on to the next fic.
By the time I imported my AO3 fics to Calibre (collected over 2-4 years), I had close to 4K. Extracting fandom, ships, tags, summary, etc is actually quite easy. It's AO3 tag wrangling/cleanup that's a hassle.
Alas, semi-automated metadata extraction doesn't really help with personal ratings/stars or notes.
Like I mentioned previously, Marvin does have an option to backup and restore the full library. It appears all book info including collections, tags, notes, etc is stored in a single SQLite database. I've yet to figure out an automated method to import the contents of said database to Calibre, though.
