Investigate packaging sotluion

[chrishoage]

I'm not sure if pip is the pypi.org is the right place for a tool like this. Perhaps it is, I just feel a bit bad about putting a purely CLI tool on pypi instead of a library

There are other options like stdeb or deb-pkg-tools which can package up the CLI application. python3-pydantic and python3-requests both exist in the apt repository, and Arch is similar. What isn't clear here is Windows, but it is my understanding that one can make an executable with all package dependence and python built in.

Lastly is something like a --check-updates argument that queries GitHub tags and see if there is a more recent version, then a user can just re-install the application using pip/pipx and the git+https url
