As far as I was aware, there was no way, without significant hacking (like installing an alternative to Nickel such as Koreader), to make your Kobo automatically download books from your Calibre library to your device, over WiFi. So I wrote a daemon which does just that.
It can be installed without needing any other hacks or launchers, since it simply runs in the background as a daemon process. To configure it, modify the calibre-sync.ini file on your SD card.
I'm pretty sure it works on a Kobo Touch running firmware 3.0.1, since that's what I have. I'd be very grateful to anyone running other devices and firmwares who can either confirm it works, or submit bug reports.
Downloads and setup instructions can be found here.
