With the announced Pocket shutdown, I want to find a way to archive all my saved articles. The provided Export tool on Pocket's website only includes links, not the saved text of all the articles. But thanks to the Pocket integration with Kobo, I had previously downloaded all my thousands of saved articles (including text) onto my Kobo Libra itself. And now I want to try save as much as I can from the Pocket integration.

Plugging my Kobo into my computer, it looks like the articles themselves are stored at the path G:\.kobo\articles, each in a directory with a random number, that includes an index.html file with the text. But this doesn't include any of the metadata (article title, URL) so it's impossible to navigate. Does anyone know anything about how Pocket stores its metadata on the reader and is there a way to copy it?
