Originally tracking this work in #3 but splitting this out as a more specific issue.

Allow users to download and get automatic updates for our binaries via Windows package managers such as:

  • Chocolatey
  • winget
  • scoop (recommended below)

@rm-Umar can you check the feasibility of this? Please first just share your findings on how one achieves getting into some of these package managers. If there're any easy wins we should take those. Otherwise let's consider an auto-updating model built into the CLI itself going forward.

I was also thinking about scoop as many of the cli tools use that but let me see what I can do.

We discussed this and considering WinGet is the official Microsoft one, sounds most reasonable to first try here.
