Questions about wordpress tools

You decide when. The panel lists what is out of date and runs the update through wp-cli with a snapshot first, so a bad plugin release is one restore away. Every run and its output is kept in Activity.

Yes. Every site has SSH, SFTP and a browser terminal, with wp-cli ready to use. The panel covers the everyday jobs, so nobody needs a shell to update a plugin.

Updates change the files in the current release, and the next deployment puts them back. On a Git site, update the plugin in your repository and deploy.
