I am working with the Mosaic Dataset Configuration Script (MDCS) on the Esri GitHub (GitHub - Esri/mdcs-py: MDCS is an acronym for Mosaic Dataset Configuration Script and is the entry p... ). A little more information on it can also be found here: https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=d1289a749b59477cb82228a09d1d0219 
I have had success with running it on Command Prompt.
However, what I really need is to make a tool out of the scripts to work in Model Builder.
1.   How do I go about loading all the separate python script files into a tool?
2.   How does the xml configuration file go into being used by a tool?
3.   Do they all need to be inputs to MDCS.py?
4.   Can this be done in a script tool or does it need to be done in a python toolbox tool?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

The answer seems to be in this video at 24:14, but the script is not shown entirely, and I cannot find it anywhere else:
