This is not possible since calibre which generates the ebook does not have this ability.

I'm guessing you're only interested in the epub format. If you modify _recipes.py src_ext, target_ext in your fork like shown below, you should get what you want since calibre will generate those navigation items natively for epubs. You will need to enable Pages to deploy from the gh-pages branch of your fork.

# change in _recipes.py
Recipe(
    recipe="example",
    slug="example",
    src_ext="epub",    # generate only epub
    target_ext=[],     # don't generate alt formats
    category="example",
)

Sorry for confusion. You have made really great software. It is possible in EPUB. I was referring to MOBI, and can we process html and append word count next to header?

The mobi format is really only meant for Kindles and I don't know what device you use, but the eInk devices already has those navigation elements built-in. There is no need for them in the mobi.

No.
