Well there is no such thing as puppet in the arena of geopolitics, if we go by that definition then probably the sole sovereign state would be the US as the global power and to some lesser extent China or Russia.
Countries make decisions based on their national interests and its in the Afghan interest to host American bases an that is why we have signed a strategic agreement with them which was ratified by the Afghan parliament.
Pakistan had hosted US forces in Pakistan in some of your air bases to operate drones in Afghanistan and also target Pakistani citizens TTP in Pakistani territory, so as you see discussion of being a puppet an being sovereign becomes very muddy very soon.
A puppet regime is a puppet regime when it is created by a foreign power that forcibly takes over a state and secondly when it starts to work for it's masters national interest rather than it's own.
Your regime fulfills both of these criteria's hence the Kabul state is a puppet regime.
As I have stated and will continue to state this again, your regime posts an existential threat to Pakistan, we will never accept an Indian threat on our western borders.
