AdvancedPowerShellToolkit

This repository contains a refactored, robust, and powerful collection of PowerShell scripts originally gathered by nickrod518. The scripts have been structured into a standard PowerShell Module format.

Features

• Massive Enterprise Scale: Contains over 14,000 advanced PowerShell functions covering Active Directory, Azure, Exchange, Networking, CyberSecurity, and more.
• Categorized Modules: Logically grouped by domain to make finding tools easier.
• Compiled Module Design: A Build-Module.ps1 script aggregates all tools into a single fast-loading AdvancedPowerShellToolkit.psm1.
• Standardized Cmdlets: Converted loose scripts into advanced functions using [CmdletBinding()].
• Pipeline Support: Many functions natively accept pipeline input for batch processing.
• Robust Error Handling: Added try/catch blocks and proper error logging.
• CIM over WMI: Updated older WMI calls to use modern CIM instances (Get-CimInstance).
• CI/CD Integration: Includes a GitHub Action to automatically run PSScriptAnalyzer on every push to ensure code quality.
