I wass able to search this up:

When you run something like:

```bash
puppet apply /path/to/manifest.pp

Puppet loads

puppet.conf

(typically

/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/puppet.conf

) and applies settings from the

[main]

section. This affects things like: -

modulepath

/

basemodulepath

— where Puppet looks for modules -

vardir

,

confdir

,

codedir

— standard directory paths -

environment

— which environment context to use -

certname

— identity of the node (relevant for

$trusted

facts) - Any custom settings, pluginsync paths, etc. ### What does not get read The

[agent]

section is not used by

puppet apply

. That section only applies when running

puppet agent

(the daemon/one-shot client that talks to a Puppet server). Similarly,

[server]

is ignored.``` Does that apply?
