That is whate template scopes is for. It allows you narrow down the action scope to whatever number of books based on whatever criteria you want. If you want the action to work on some books but not other, use template scope.

The same principle applies here. You narrow it down using template scopes.

Edit: For actions that does not support scopes, namely Calibre Actions, you use the "Search Using Templates" action in the same way you would the template scopes.
