The Wikimedia user agent policy is here; https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User-Agent_policy
I believe right now via: https://github.com/digipres/digipres.github.io/blob/a1fb93280d1b89203c2e258fe02eb0d61710846b/_sources/registries/wikidata/download-wikidata-formats.py#L36 they will see a generic python-requests header which I think just about passes their test. They do however recommend a format for User-agent: User-Agent: CoolBot/0.0 (https://example.org/coolbot/; coolbot@example.org) generic-library/0.0 which may be a nicer way to play in their sandbox. I'd recommend it for PRONOM and other downloads too if one is so inclined.
User-Agent: CoolBot/0.0 (https://example.org/coolbot/; coolbot@example.org) generic-library/0.0
I've only done a cursory glance of the code-base here, maybe there is an agent set somewhere that I am missing. Apologies if I've read that wrong.
NB. Is this script code a dead file?
maybe one for .gitignore?
.gitignore
