When prompted, type your administrator password and press Return again.* If your Mac is using macOS Sierra or earlier, include the -applicationpath argument and installer path, similar to the way this is done in the command for El Capitan.

And you likely could use a macro program potentially do a macro timed download using Safari or the App Store. That thread on the Apple support site does have a couple other posts with possible options mentioned.

I believe I have found how it would be noted in the Console logs if the download happened (I am likely not going to stay and sit there watching my computer ). If not, then try it later this week when it nags me. I might try it tonight.assuming I can get a nag from the OS before I go to bed. I have not idea if that is accurate or not. This thread on the Apple support site offers one post that suggests that it might be between 2 am and 5 am (see the last post):

This assume, of course, that you want to update to it and/or that you can update to it (i.e. My original post will more apply when Apple releases a new macOS major upgrade.aka 10.13 (or whatever California landmark they name it after).
For most, this is likely not a problem as most apps on the App Store are pretty small, but there are some that can get quite large. So, there is no way that I know of to download those updates on another computer. To my knowledge, those have to be done through the Update tab in the App Store. whether free or cost actual money) through the App Store. One thing to note is that this will NOT include updates to non-Apple apps that you have "bought" (i.e. So, you likely will first want to go to the App Store and see what updates are listed there and write them down (with the EXACT title) so that you can then do find them. The key thing is that you will need to know which updates you need, find them and download them individually. apps like Safari, iTunes, etc) and other Apple updates that will come typically by way of the Updates tab in the App Store.
That page will have all incremental macOS updates, security updates, Apple apps updates (i.e. Then that would be the link provided by jonuk76.
