bl_apt_update_check

I want to emulate how bl_apt_update_check works, but I can't figure out how it is being run. I don't see it anywhere in cron.

So question #1) how, when and how often does bl_apt_update_check run?

Question #2) if I wanted to alter how it runs... I want to add an option to automatically run apt update && apt upgrade. I figure I can add a second test case where it asks for Q to quit, so add U to update. But if I make that change, how would I protect it from being overwritten if for some reason you update it upstream?

Thanks,
David
