Puppet Development Kit protected download and Windows MSI packaging notes
Puppet Development Kit is a manual-source package: Puppet’s current install documentation says PDK is stored in a protected repository and requires authenticated download. For repeatable packaging, keep the installer binary in your managed local-content/source repository and record which credential path was used: a Puppet Core Forge API key with username forge-key, or Puppet Enterprise credentials using the PE username and PE License ID.
For Windows detection and validation, the same documentation lists the Windows MSI support scope as Windows 10/11 x86_64 and Windows Server 2016/2019/2022 x86_64, with the default Windows install path C:\Program Files\Puppet Labs\DevelopmentKit. Use that path as a package-validation clue, but do not assume the installer can be freshly downloaded by an unattended patch job unless your repository/authentication process has staged the MSI first.
