For your use case, I would actually rely on Smart Device and set up a custom column in Calibre in which I enter which book is on which device and keep it up to date.
Edit: I think you could also automate this with the Reading List plugin, but I'm not that familiar with it

I had sent a number of books to the tablet (selected 212 to send, only 187 on tablet) via CCS and CS, using custom columns which I had already set up in Calibre for my various Reading Lists (via the Reading List plugin) and Device status (Add, On, Remove, etc). After downloaded the metadata in CS, I then filtered and selected the books in my total index to download only the books I want on the device. Worked mostly fine, although I needed to also filter by doc type (epub, pdf, mobi, azw, obok, etc.)
Hence the reason that I'm interested in getting an indication of the books on my device....although I do try to maintain the column indicating device status, sometimes things go sideways, and I like to have redundant systems to improve the handling.
I think perhaps I'll try to redownload my selected books using the Smart Device connection, and see if that does the trick.
Thanks again for your help!
