I have not heard of scoop before, do you need to periodically update the release package in their repository for it to fetch the latest version? Electron apps can automatically update so it's not really a huge issue if it's a bit outdated, but I was just wondering.

SCOOP is similar to the Linux package manager. For example, running scoop update * can automatically update all software. The information of the software is automatically maintained by scoop's own GitHub Action.

Here is the introduction of scoop: https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/scoop

Sonixd is stored in the Extras repo of SCOOP: https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Extras/blob/master/bucket/sonixd.json . The ability to update automatically mainly depends on the autoupdate in this json.
