They did mention them in PT-era guides as tech that was incorporated late into the Clone Wars to boost the number of clone soldiers, but that was about it sadly.
We already had a CIS clone army before that, one they could've actually expanded on in TCW and even included the Spaarti and Khommites into. I mean heck, the show even featured Saleucami, the main location where this army was spawned, early in the show, and they could've actually turned this conflict into something way bigger on par with what was described in the Thrawn Trilogy, but nope. Saleucami just ended up being used for cheap filler and the conflicts were as small as ever in the show...

Sad thing is that the minute Zemeckis croaks they're going to be butchering his work hard. I do find it fitting how BTTF has had no remakes, sequels or no new media (outside of commercials, parodies and a meh point and click game with quality voice acting) in years yet it still has persisted in the public eye and is still just as beloved as ever, proving that Hollywood's claims that old stuff needs moronic sequels, reboots and remakes to stay relevant are a load of crap. All a good movie or franchise needs to stay relevant is to stay talked about and continue being shown on TV/streaming/whatever and get reprints. Its good appeal is enough to keep people loving it. The real reason for all these ungodly and over-milked remakes and sequels we get now is just plain old greed because new IPs don't seem to make enough money for these greedy Hollywood clowns, and killing off the old protags is a good way to completely change the IP beyond recognition while keeping the trademarked name for merchandising. Its the most shamelessly soulless and disrespectful form of movie making.
They also could have included Jabiim and Rhen Var harbor but that would go against the narrative that rebellion against globalists/the republic taking over the entire known galaxy is futile.
Jabiim even had prototype AT-AT's that looked simpler and basically the locals behaved like the neo crusaders with those separatist allied jabiimi commandos. Those specialized 4-eyed commando droids were also not nearly as dorky as the final fantasy sword carrying ones in the 3D CGI Clone wars show.
AT-XT's were also a missed opportunity and would have been more appropriate on Umbara vs the OPEN pilot seat AT-RT where you are asking someone to shoot your vulnerable meatbag underbelly as a certain droid would say.
