How do I script Photos.app in Ventura or Sonoma?

I recently reviewed the User Doc for Photos. It was created a few years ago but is still being updated.

Thank you léonie (https://discussions.apple.com/profile/l%C3%A9onie/participation).


I have had difficulty getting the Automator Scripts to work in Ventura/Sonoma as services. I think that's been deprecated or eliminated by Apple even though the Automator online docs say it's still possible. I had to convert the Automator script to Shortcuts then enable AppleScript and use the details menu to add to Services. (See: Run a shortcut while working on your Mac - Apple Support (KG))


Is there any guidance or prior post on how the transition from native AppleScript to Shortcuts is going for Photos.app and where there's now a collection anywhere of Shortcuts we could download and enable? I was unable to find a good collection using Kagi or Google search.
