Summary

puppet doc is explicitly documented as deprecated and planned for removal.

Evidence

• lib/puppet/application/doc.rb:66 marks command output as deprecated.
• lib/puppet/application/doc.rb:77 says it is a deprecated command.
• lib/puppet/application/doc.rb:86 states it will be removed.

Proposed OpenVox 9 Change

• Remove Puppet::Application::Doc implementation and command registration.
• Remove related man/reference docs generated for puppet doc.
• Keep replacement path documented (puppet-strings) in release notes/migration notes.

Compatibility / Risk

• Breaking change for users/scripts still invoking puppet doc.
• Low runtime risk to core agent/server paths.

Implementation Notes

• Remove command source and any command discovery/registration hooks.
• Remove tests that target puppet doc; add one test that verifies command is unavailable (or omitted from help).

Acceptance Criteria

• puppet doc is no longer a valid subcommand.
• Command help/manpage output no longer advertises puppet doc.
• No dead references remain in references docs.

Suggested Tests

• CLI smoke test: command list does not include doc.
• Negative test: puppet doc exits with unknown-command behavior.
