How do I make a script run only the first time the layout is instantiated and not all subsequent pages (which inherit that layout)? #1930

Describe the bug

In a new Svelte Kit project I have a <script context="module"> in __layout.svelte.

The load function in it is called on each page I change.

I thought instead it was only called when the layout is instantiated for the first time.

I'm doing it wrong?

How do I make a script run only the first time the layout is instantiated and not all subsequent pages (which inherit that layout)?
