A Python CLI tool that downloads books from O'Reilly Learning (Safari Books Online) and generates EPUB files from them. It requires a valid account login (or SSO cookies) and supports optional Kindle-friendly output.

When to choose

- you want a lightweight Python script with minimal dependencies
- you want to import O'Reilly books into Calibre or a Kindle
When to avoid
- you need direct login support - the O'Reilly API changes broke credential login, so you must copy browser cookies manually
