bookshelf looks like something you'd like. It doesn't seem to automatically index the files, but it does work without Calibre and has no UI. It only supports Epub though.

I don't know if it saves progress and I can't test it right now.

It actually has a ui. But it looks minimal enough. I'll try it.

can you tell me your testing with bookshelf? really curious with the ui and your opinion on it.

It doesn't support OPDS-PSE, which is the most common way of tracking progress.
