Take a look at ameliorated.io
If you don’t want to put in the effort, the most time efficient way is just to install windows 10 LTSC (long term support), and slapping portmaster or adguard on it, with some telemetry-blocking DNS.
Feel free to ask for more info if you’d like to know more

I don’t know about ansible, sorry
Ame provides a wizard that runs with fairly elevated permissions to apply a set of scripts to the system.
The changes are more or less radical depending on the playbook (the set of scripts) you choose.
I’ve been using AME 10 for some years now and I’ve been really enjoying it. It removes windows update, ms store, XBOX apps and all windows telemetry and ads.
Very polished experience overall, but not recommended to those who do not want or know how to mantain their system (stuff installed through chocolatey needs to be manually updated through CLI, even auto updating software, and you might need to find alternative apps to do stuff if the original ones are too integrated into the system, like Minecraft launcher)
I use a simple bash script on my parents pc and schedule cup all -y with windows scheduler. No longer on call IT support :)
