 def generate(script_dir: Path) -> bool:
     """
-    Generates a Python script that sets up and executes model runs with Weights & Biases (WandB) integration.
-
-    This function creates a script that imports necessary modules, sets up project paths, and defines the
-    main execution logic for running either a single model run or a sweep of model configurations. The
-    generated script includes command-line argument parsing, validation, and runtime logging.
+    Generates a script that sets up the project paths, parses command-line arguments,
+    sets up logging, and executes a single model run.
 
     Parameters:
         script_dir (Path):
-            The directory where the generated Python script will be saved. This should be a valid writable
-            path that exists within the project structure.
+            The directory where the generated script will be saved.
+            This should be a valid writable path.
 
     Returns:
         bool:
-            True if the script was successfully written to the specified directory, False otherwise.
-
-    The generated script includes the following features:
-    - Imports required libraries and sets up the path to include the `common_utils` module.
-    - Initializes project paths using the `setup_project_paths` function.
-    - Parses command-line arguments with `parse_args`.
-    - Validates arguments to ensure correctness with `validate_arguments`.
-    - Logs into Weights & Biases using `wandb.login()`.
-    - Executes a model run based on the provided command-line flags, either initiating a sweep or a single run.
-    - Calculates and prints the runtime of the execution in minutes.
-
-    Note:
-        - Ensure that the `common_utils` module and all other imported modules are accessible from the
-          specified script directory.
-        - The generated script is designed to be executed as a standalone Python script.
+            True if the script was written and compiled successfully, False otherwise.
