Describe the feature you'd like

It would be valuable to add new capabilities to the rules engine, including additional triggers and conditions.

Triggers:

A bookmark is added to a list or any of its child lists
A bookmark is added without being assigned to any list

Conditions:

Based on the source
Has no tags

Describe the benefits this would bring to existing Karakeep users

More flexible automation workflows
These triggers enable rules to react precisely to how and where bookmarks are created, allowing more contextual automation.
Better handling of edge cases
Detecting bookmarks added without a list or without tags makes it easier to catch and process unclassified content automatically.
Improved content organization
Rules based on source and list hierarchy help ensure that bookmarks are consistently categorized, even in complex list structures.
Reduced manual classification
Automating actions for untagged or unlisted bookmarks significantly lowers the need for manual cleanup.
Scalability for large collections
These features support growing bookmark libraries where manual organization becomes impractical.
