a) Use an exec resource to grep -q the relevant line. This will push
the success/failure of the grep to the exit status, so the exec will
fail if the line is missing. Put this in a class and make all the
relevant resources require that class.

or

b) Push the search to the puppet pre-run command.

    # A command to run before every agent run.  If this command
returns a non-zero
    # return code, the entire Puppet run will fail.
    # The default value is ''.
    # prerun_command =
