For now one will have to add my SCOOP repo to install HCK via SCOOP.
Once #52 is fixed, I will send a pull request to https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Extras to make HCK available with the default SCOOP installation

I'm not familiar with scoop. Will it be able to automatically pull the latest version of hck, or will it need updating with each new release?

λ  scoop help update
Usage: scoop update <app> [options]

'scoop update' updates Scoop to the latest version.
'scoop update <app>' installs a new version of that app, if there is one.

You can use '*' in place of <app> to update all apps.

Options:
  -f, --force               Force update even when there isn't a newer version
  -g, --global              Update a globally installed app
  -i, --independent         Don't install dependencies automatically
  -k, --no-cache            Don't use the download cache
  -s, --skip                Skip hash validation (use with caution!)
  -q, --quiet               Hide extraneous messages
  -a, --all                 Update all apps (alternative to '*')

So, just run scoop update * now and then...

Sorry, I mean is it like homebrew, where there is a sperate config repo somewhere that needs to be udpated with a new version of hck each time a new release is made?

What I'm getting at is that I don't want to add install instructions that would lead to users installing non-latest versions of hck.
