+### Container image caches
+
+If Docker or Podman is available during harvest, Enroll records local image-cache metadata from `image ls` and `image inspect`. Images that expose registry `RepoDigest` values are reproducible by digest, for example `registry.example.net/app@sha256:...`; those are the references rendered into manifests. Local image IDs and tag-only images are preserved as evidence and notes, but are not treated as exact registry pull references.
+
+For Ansible, digest-pinned Docker images are pulled with `community.docker.docker_image_pull` and digest-pinned Podman images are pulled with `containers.podman.podman_image`; harvested tag aliases are re-applied where possible. The generated `requirements.yml` includes `community.docker` and `containers.podman` alongside any other required collections. In `--fqdn` mode the image list is host-specific inventory data.

 - Flatpak, Snap, and live firewall runtime snapshots are listed as notes when present rather than rendered as Puppet resources.
+- Docker image resources require the `puppetlabs-docker` module to be installed in the Puppet environment.
 - JinjaTurtle templating is currently Ansible-oriented and is not applied to Puppet output.
