I don't know of any way to only have it automatically inform you of
updates. You could probably write a systemd unit or two to have it run
"apt list --upgradable" from time to time. Synaptic might have something
of the kind.
Or you can have it install upgrades automatically by installing the
unattended-upgrades package. I have mine send emails so I can review
the results. It does occasionally hit an odd error which requires
manual intervention.
