Thanks. calibre -s; zip -r /path/to/plugin/zip/file.zip *; calibre is much better than my rather manual method.

I went looking for a zip utililty with a command line to use with this script and found 7-Zip for Windows to be very useful. A couple of features in particular help in this context:

1) 7-Zip can be made the default program to open .zip files.

2) 7-Zip allows files within the zip to be edited directly, unlike the Windows built-in option.
