Update: Tool in shell scripting language (.sh) that simplifies renaming images. Whether you have just one image or a bunch of them in a folder, this tool can tag them with the name of the Custom Setting (recipe) used.
Locate your "JPG" or "RAF" file and drag it into the Terminal window right after the pasted text. This will add the file's path to the command line.
Press Enter, and you'll receive the information for the specified file (e.g., DSCF0300.JPG).

PS: Unfortunately, Fujifilm doesn't include the name you assigned to your Custom settings (recipes) in the EXIF data. Therefore, you'll need to review the settings presented in the EXIF and match them with the Custom setting you created.
Enjoy! I've also included the image count at the end. Interestingly, I discovered that Fuji counts the actuations even when using the electronic shutter. I'm not sure why they do this, but that's how it works.

I forgot to mention that this approach is effective for processing multiple images at once, such as those stored within a folder. Instead of manually dragging each JPEG or RAF file one by one, you can simply drag the entire folder containing the images into the terminal code. This way, the "Recipe" EXIF data will be displayed in the order they appear within the folder.

Fujifilm likely didn't intend this field to be used as a shutter count - there is also a mechanical shutter count in many of the X series cameras that isn't written to the EXIF.
You have to be a bit careful using the image count because Exiftool chops it at 15 bits so it rolls over at 32K (plus it counts images created using pre-shot that aren't written to the card so the number can go up pretty quickly).
p.1 #5 · A simple method to determine your Fujifilm recipe afterward
Fujifilm's actuation count is valuable because it shows the total number of times a picture has been taken, regardless of whether it was triggered mechanically, electronically, in bracketing mode, or even through pre-shot electronic shutter shooting.
While it's interesting to know the total number of pictures taken with the camera, this information isn't very useful for tracking the wear specifically on the mechanical shutter, which impacts its longevity.
This count can sometimes be misunderstood for those buying or selling a Fuji camera, as it might not accurately reflect the wear and tear on the shutter.

Easier method is to go to this site: https://www.solentsystems.com/
And upload SOOC .jpg
Then You will see all .jpg settings, including AF point or shutter count

I must say this works very well AND on the GFX body as well. Thanks. I wish it were a stand alone app that didn't need internet.

I'm just not sure if the camera shutter count from this site is accurate or estimated (and if estimated, then based from what?)
Its exactly the same as the image count displayed by Exiftool in the original post EXCEPT that it doesn't get reset at 32K (although the field is only 2 bytes so can't hold more than 64K).
It has the same caveats about not being a good guide to shutter wear.
The only way to get the mechanical shutter count is from the camera itself via the tethering interface.

That browser EXIF app is pretty neat because it separates the "recipe" area, making it easy to access, just like the exiftool option I mentioned earlier. If one day the site goes away, at least we have an option that does not even require internet to work.

To easily find out your Fujifilm Custom Setting (recipe) after the fact, follow these steps:
Fred, another great feature of exiftool is its ability to rename files based on the metadata. I use this feature all the time when ingesting images for a lot of my camera tests, for example adding the shutter speed, ISO, aperture, etc.. to the filenames to make it easy to evaluate which images are what.
Here's a recipe that will add the film mode to the end of a Fuji image filename:
exiftool -q "-FileName<%f_${FilmMode;$_=~s/W//g}.%e" <filename or directory>
This will turn "DSCF0640.JPG" into "DSCF0640_ClassicChrome.JPG".
The "~s/W//g" removes any non-alphanumeric characters including spaces, which is my personal preference for filenames.
exiftool also supports conditional logic, which you could use to solve the camera not putting the name of the custom settings into the EXIF (ie, use a matching set of EXIF values to inject a new EXIF tag into your file to include a name for your custom settings).
Note for Windows users - if you put this in a batch file you'll need to use two %% instead of % for the %f and %e

Very interesting Adam. I may start doing this in a batch for my jpg files!

That's even better. Could you share the code to accomplish this? Thanks in advance.

Sure Fred, here's a basic example that will add "FredLandscapeRecipe" if the image has a specific film mode and grain effect size:
exiftool "-FileName=%f_FredLandscapeRecipe.%e" -if "$FilmMode eq 'ClassicChrome' and $GrainEffectSize eq 'Small'" <filename or directory>
You can add additional conditions to fully spec out which EXIF tag values should be qualified to rename the filename for the invocation. If you prefer to add an EXIF tag for these conditions rather than rename the file then it's a little more work - you have to edit an exiftool configuration file to define a new tag first, which is described here. Once you've defined that tag you can modify the above command to assign the tag value instead of rename the file, for example -NewStyleTag=FredLandscapeRecipe if ....
