Default Compost?

...
Last spring I filled my outside plant pots with compost, that bagged up
stuff for a couple of quid per bag.
Nothing spectacular was grown in them.
Will the compost still be okay for next year or should I renew it?
I can't find much on Google about this.
If it will still be okay, do I leave the compost outside in the pots, or
do I put it in a container and store in the garage?

Thanks

I often reuse it, adding blood, fish and bone, and a tad of chicken manure
from my own birds as I assume the previous crop has used all the nutrients
in it.
Works OK for me.
