The Reveal Agent can be installed via msiexec using the /i flag with the corresponding MSI package. For example:

Silent installation:
msiexec /i agent_x64_release_signed.msi /qn
Add the /qn for silent execution. Note that this may cause a restart on install or upgrade if the /norestart flag is not supplied.
Further documentation can be found in the Microsoft Documentation
Silent install, no restart:
msiexec /i agent_x64_release_signed.msi /qn /norestart

msiexec /i agent_x64_release_signed.msi /qn /norestart /L*v agent-install.log
