What is the OS upgrade helper tool?

Can I download it manually from somewhere / somehow?

"You may be asked to sign in with an administrator name and password to install a helper tool, then click Add Helper to continue."

I'm getting the following error:

Error: -[OSISClient prepareOSInstaller:error:]_block_invoke, Couldn’t communicate with a helper application.
