We're actually in the process of moving to kiwi for this and have a
new repo setup for that purpose:
https://pagure.io/fedora-kiwi-descriptions
David Duncan filed a ticket for getting kiwi enabled in Koji a while
back, which we're still waiting on:

Hmm, I can't find a fedora change proposal for this. I think there
should be one?
Also: Why move to kiwi? I had the impression the longer-term plan is
to move to osbuild once it offers all features needed (which is not yet
the case). So switching (temporarely?) to kiwi looks like a pointless
disruption to me.
First step into that direction seems to be here:

take care,
