WIFI connection to Calibre

I've searched and haven't found an answer.
Is there a way to connect my Clara HD to Calibre via WIFI to my PC so I have the same interface as I do when using USB as well as the same functionality? I.E. books marked read via the custom column I have as well as percentage, series and collections columns as well as books on device and/or Calibre only.
The only one I've found require Koreader which I don't want and it doesn't appear to do what I want anyway. I just want a simple connection that pops up if I open Calibre on my PC with WIFI enable on my Clara HD asking if I want to sync with Calibre.
Don't want any conversions or anything just a simple sync connection that I can use to work with my books in Calibre and on my reader without using the USB cable.
In case your wondering why, the USB receptacle is starting to get a bit loose so I use a wireless charging adaptor I leave in in all the time and charge wirelessly so I'm not constantly inserting the plug. It's in all the time and being a low profile, it's protected by the cover.
The only mod I've done and want to do to my reader is use Kobalt.

I saw that but it requires Nickel which I'm not willing to install.

No problem per se I just don't have a use for it and don't want to add it to be able to use another piece of software.
Using Kobalt does all the custom configurations I want, not saying Nickelmenu isn't a good addition, for me it's just adding an additional thing I don't need.
I don't have to connect via USB that often so it's not earth shattering having to connect via hard wire, I just thought there may be a way wirelessly.
