Calibre 7.1.0 Auto Add from Folder Question

The Automatic adding of files placed in a specific folder works great for saving web pages on my computer as an epub, then having Calibre gobble it up and put in the library. Reason I do this is sometimes Send-to-Kindle doesn't do a good job of capturing page content, so I've decided to start using the Remarkable ePub extension. It works really well for web-to-epub conversion. Another extension "save as epub" does ok, but it's older and doesn't always work.

So now I have this web-epub file in a folder that Calibre is monitoring. When Calibre ingests those files, can they be tagged as "Articles" when they are pulled into my library? Then I would like to see if Calibre can auto-send via email epub file(s) tagged Articles.

Would also be nice to change metadata on the epub files that are ingested. For me, I would like the author changed to something singular/consistent so all my saved web articles have author of "webarticle" or something like that.

So I would need a regex to replace the default

(?P<title>.+) - (?P<author>[^_]+)
With something that forces author to be webarticle.
