Thanks for all the suggestions!
I‘m going with #Faircamp by @freebliss.
https://codeberg.org/simonrepp/faircamp
It does all the things that I need the tool to do. It even does a few more. Most of which I hadn’t thought about.
I‘ll figure out if I‘m holding it wrong or if it should able to extract embedded cover images from .mp3 files.
Might just as well be an issue with the specific version of ID3 tags in those files, or my installation of ffmpeg.
As for faircamp extracting embedded cover images from files: Unfortunately not (yet) possible - it was a bonus goal in the nlnet-funded development for 1.0 but I only managed to fit in the must-have parts back then (i.e. writing embedded cover images in the output files, wiping embedded covers on request, configurability etc.)¹
That said, definitely will be coming at some point. :)

¹ To quote from my report:
Task: (...) As a nice-to-have: Implement support for sourcing the release cover for faircamp's processing from embedded cover images (currently only supported from stand-alone image files)."
Result: (...) The nice-to-have part of this task has been technically evaluated but eventually found too complex to fit in the budgeted and planned time.
As for the tags, I was already suspecting that it’s supported the other way round.
Since I'm using a shell wrapper anyway, I can also generate the `release.eno` file with that and extract the cover via `ffmpeg` from the first title. Solved my use case just fine.
Thanks for `brew`ing it for macOS, this made it really easy and comfortable to use.
