FileFlows
FileFlows is a file processing application that can execute actions against a file in a tree flow structure.
I think FileFlows might be what your after. The dev is very very responsive on discord and may be able to develop a specific plugin for you (via a small patreon donation) to support your requirement. It already supports renaming, moving, zipping, file size comparison etc and many other file commands. https://fileflows.com

For bundling, my main constraint is that archivemount or gio mount archive:// can seek within the archive: so tar and zip are fine, but tar.gz is not. Squashfs also works well.

If you bundle by date-added, incremental backup stays very simple, as most files never change. If you have to bundle some other way such that all the files are always changing a little bit, some backup tools handle this well and others do not. Dar is a notably unique backup tool that can do differential/incremental binary delta backups and still have the interface "backup data is written to a plain ol' file" rather than some more complicated bidirectional communication protocol like Borg. This lets you layer on other it's-just-a-file technologies like generating .par2 files for your backups, encryption, asymmetric encryption, and simple remote transfer & storage.
