Jamf School & Google Chrome
I used to use something like the above script but switched to using Installomator for all apps we use that it supports. It can do the initial install as a push or from Self Service, and then you can set it up to patch software as well. https://github.com/Installomator/Installomator

Which policies, profiles, scripts, apps and packages do you consider must-have?
If you want to make things easy for your users and yourself, take a look at Installomator. It'll unlock a lot of nice workflows for your users, since you could put a specific title's install action available in Self Service and thats always gonna be easier than trying to track down the vendor's URL and finding the right download. It also means you don't have to repackage anything.

Looks like you’re trying to update/work with version 4 but the installomator version is still on version 3. I’d suggest using build a label for musescore4

Download install latest pkg from a repo through Terminal?
I’d recommend you look into AutoPkg (https://github.com/autopkg/autopkg). It can do exactly what you ask - check the repo for new releases, and download them. It can even package them up if needed, or customise the package for you. Depending on the MDM you use, and/out your scripting ability, you could even have it upload the package to the MDM.

Get notified when select apps have an update
If anyone comes across this with the same question I found a helpful utility is autopkg. https://github.com/autopkg/autopkg Instead of a simple notification, I created a daily job that runs an autopkg update on selected apps I care about and adds it to my Testing Manifest Munki Repo. The Manager Software Center app notifies me when a package has an update the next time the client checks in.
What are some alternatives?
shell-intune-samples - Sample shell scripts for Intune admins.
HomeBrew - 🍺 The missing package manager for macOS (or Linux)
munki - Managed software installation for macOS —
autopkgr - AutoPkgr is a free Mac app that makes it easy to install and configure AutoPkg.
kinobi - An external patch definition server for Jamf Pro
ProfileCreator - macOS app to create standard or customized configuration profiles.
