// Tags to check and modify

const tagsToSkip = ["reading", "read", "explore"];  // Tags to skip if present

// Check if the item already has one of the tags to skip
if (item.getTags().some(obj => tagsToSkip.includes(obj.tag))) {
    return `[Modify Tags] tag ${tagsToSkip.join(", ")} found, skipping on ${item.getField("title")}`;
}

// Remove the 'unread' tag if present
tagsToRemove.forEach(tag => {
    if (item.getTags().some(obj => obj.tag === tag)) {
        item.removeTag(tag);
        return `[Modify Tags] removed tag ${tag} from ${item.getField("title")}`;
    }
});

// Add the 'reading' tag if none of the skipped tags are present
item.addTag(tagToAdd);
return `[Modify Tags] added tag ${tagToAdd} to ${item.getField("title")}`;
