Research direction

Start by reading issue #1693 and locating the Python code that creates a request for each check. Confirm how headers are currently supplied, then use a shared session so connection, cookie, and header handling is centralized; done means callers no longer need to repeat those headers.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

As it can be seen in #1693 for each request, we need to write headers, this can be avoided by using sessions that caches connections, cookies etc and in the particular case headers.
