With a broken Switch display, hekate's interface cannot be used but there should be a way to use its features. Supporting the docked mode is too much work, and so would probably be adding a web interface. However, what about adding simple scripts support for basic features ?
For example writing in a text file the following instructions that would be automatically executed on launch:
format the SD card
backup the NAND
create an eMMC
The issue would be how to signal to the user that the actions have been performed or that an error occurred. Use sound (if speakers are connected) ? Boot into OFW ? Shutdown ? Make the fan spin ? But for those who need it, i could personally live with just waiting for a fair amount of time before shutting down the console, just to make sure it did its job.

Use hekate's boot storage/payload storage.
hex edit 2 hekate payloads with the relevant values at the relevant offsets (https://github.com/CTCaer/hekate#payload-storage).
One to mount SD via UMS and one to mount eMMC. (If you want write access to eMMC, set umsemmcrw=1 to nyx.ini)
And use one of the many partition managers and switch emmc/emummc managers on your PC.
Otherwise check for switch payloads that have something like that, since an interpreter is out of scope for hekate.
For booting you can already utilize autoboot or again boot storage.
