Is COE Toolkit worth investing?

We recently started using CoE Tool Kit and it's been great for visibility across our Power Platform environment, but the last GitHub release was February 2026 and nothing since. For a toolkit that used to drop monthly, that silence feels odd.

With PPAC getting stronger every release — inventory views, capacity reporting, usage dashboards — a lot of what the CoE Toolkit does is starting to feel like it's being absorbed into the platform natively.

For those running it in production, are you still actively using COE i?or

Would love to know where people are landing on this

Thanks

Hey @Vish WR

My take on this would be that whilst the new inventory in PPAC is welcome, its not as comprehensive as the COEStarterKit data. I personally think the CoEStarterKit still adds meaningful value around governance workflows and the maker nurture side of things.

Totally agree that it would be nice to see an updated roadmap for the COEStarterKit.

Thanks!

Yes, with the Inventory API, I foresee the future of the COE toolkit's end of life soon

Really great article @Vish WR

The Agentic Centre of Enablement will be very interesting to see.

I think for me though, if I've built customisations and extended the COEStarterKit then there is still tremendous value in keeping that operational. Also, even just in the base CoEStarterKit, its more than just inventory. There is a Env Req App, a DLP app, etc

Back to your orignal question - Yes, for the time being atleast (or until there is concrete news on the COEStarterKit), then the COEStarterKit is still worth investing in.

True, but the problem is that there is an issue or a security issue in the core component, and there is no support from the COE team, which is a risk

When I check the issue backlog, the issues were never assigned to anyone till feb it was always assigned to someone within1-2 days
