Tag Refactoring Tool

I have a bookmark collection which i built up for several years know. Today i'd chosen different tags here and there and i'd like to tidy up my collection. I imagine a tool which can do:
- Define criteria: contains tag, does not contain tag, is (not) in collection, ...
- Define actions: rename tag, add tag, remove tag, ...
The tool walks through all my collections and applies the actions to all bookmarks that match the criteria.
Example:
- Criteria: contains tag "machine" and contains tag "learning"
- Actions: remove tag "machine" and remove tag "learning" and add tag "machine learning"
Or:
- Criteria: contains tag "photo" and is in collection "arts"
- Actions: rename tag "photo" to "photography"
This is basically an extended feature request of "Merge Tags" because that would be possible too with this approach.

In AI suggestions, there are rename tags suggestions, but is so plastered. Give the user tools to create
custom actions
like rename tags, unify tags, create patterns to automatically put tags in new links (for example, if the title contains the word Obsidian, put automatically the tags #obsidian and #notetaking and move to the obsidian folderRodrigo Araújo
Another example, I would like to create a custom action that when I mark a bookmark with the #fedora tag, automatically was added the #linux and #linux/distro tags. And this
custom action
would applied when I tagged a bookmart and recursivelly in all previous bookmarked with #fedoran

Linked request specifically on selective tag removal from a list: https://raindropio.canny.io/feature-requests/p/bulk-remove-individual-tags-from-a-selection-of-bookmarks

I would 100% pay more to have this feature, especially if there were added tools to make bulk tagging and sorting faster and easier. My primary reason for moving to Raindrop is that I want to start building a consistent, sustainable system for finding my stuff, and I knew Raindrop's visual previews would make it much easier to sort through all the unprocessed or partially-processed content, links for old projects or shopping tasks, and just plain garbage. Still, there's just so much content to handle, and it's all tied to folders, tags, and other metadata that may no longer be relevant. Pre-sorting with a tool like this would make the project less overwhelming and enable me to get back to using Raindrop's other awesome features rather than sifting through the mess.

Since this topic is under review, I just want to point to the Tag-Clusters request where I briefly describe how a robust "Tag Management Tool" could solve multiple feature requests including the hierarchical tags request simultaneously.

I switched to Raindrop.io with a large collection of bookmarks. In order to maintain my several thousand tags, this function is essential.
The software https://www.tagpacker.com shows how easily this can be implemented (see screenshot):
- Search for tag "machine" and learning"
- Add the tag "machine learning" to the search result. Raindrop can do this.
- Remove the tag "machine" from the search result. Remove the tag "learning" the search result. Raindrop is missing this.
From a selection of bookmarks, Raindrop should not only be able to add tags, but also remove some.

Is this expected to move forward at any point yet? This feature would be incredibly helpful for large collections or heavy-(or lazy-)-taggers!

Tag gardening is slow manual process currently need to be able to merge older taxonomies from other platforms to new raindrops ones easily
