As far as I know nothing like this currently exists. You may be able to accomplish it but it will take research and programming.

The 32-character hex value added to the .mbp1 file names appears to be the same for every book. It is possibly something associated with your Amazon account.

There is a program called MBP_Reader that can decode .mbp files. The website for it is here. Unfortunately the download links no longer function and I haven't seen it available anywhere else online. That page does include some cryptic documentation on .mbp.

It is possible to decode a .mbp1 file using KRDS. (See KRDS - A parser for Kindle reader data store files.) However I do not know of any software that can create these files.

Good luck.
