This could be done with additional parameters:

[Parameter()]
[Hashtable[]]
$AdditionalPackages,

[Parameter()]
[Hashtable[]]
$AdditionalConfiguration

We could then just act on it at the end of ClientSetup:

if($AdditionalPackages){
  #action here
}

if($AdditionalConfiguration){
  #Action here
}

If doing AdditionalPackages can I suggest that we trigger the Jenkins job (like we do in Azure / Ansible) rather than adding further logic?

This is on the client side. When setting up a workstation with C4b this would allow you to add additional things to be installed, on top of what is predefined in the ClientSetup.ps1. At this stage, trigger the jenkins job doesn't quite make sense?

Ah, very true - for some reason I was thinking of that being similar to the additional packages in Azure. Disregard me!
