AI Summary: This issue aims to eliminate code duplication by refactoring multiple nearly identical `get_session()` functions found across various Python scripts. The proposed solution involves creating a single shared `get_session()` function in `scripts/shared.py`. All affected scripts will then be updated to use this new shared function, while ensuring that any script-specific headers are still appropriately configured.
