Terragrunt vs ToolJet
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Terragrunt and ToolJet — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Terragrunt vs ToolJet: at a glance
What is Terragrunt?
Terragrunt graduated six experiments at once and has spent three candidates stabilising them
Terragrunt is running the v1.1.0 release-candidate cycle, now at rc3. The first candidate completed six experiments simultaneously — stack-dependencies, a content-addressable store, a catalog redesign, mark-many-as-read, opt-out-auth and DAG queue display. The two candidates since have added only bug fixes for those features plus improvements to how releases are published and verified.
What is ToolJet?
ToolJet bundles MCP, multi-LLM switching, and PATs in a single beta — shifting from app builder to AI development platform
ToolJet v3.21.71-beta landed the platform's most consequential feature batch in recent memory: Personal Access Tokens, two-factor authentication, LLM provider switching with AI query transformation, MCP authentication via PATs, OneNote integration, CSV import into ToolJet DB, multi-model build support with a redesigned model picker, OTel observability on semantic conventions, and an AI-powered content generation option. The LTS branch ships more conservatively, receiving MCP bundling in the EE image and AI build cancellation support.

Terragrunt graduated six experiments at once and has spent three candidates stabilising them
◆ Current state
Terragrunt is running the v1.1.0 release-candidate cycle, now at rc3. The first candidate completed six experiments simultaneously — stack-dependencies, a content-addressable store, a catalog redesign, mark-many-as-read, opt-out-auth and DAG queue display. The two candidates since have added only bug fixes for those features plus improvements to how releases are published and verified.
◆ Where it's heading
The experiment-graduation model is doing what it is supposed to: features developed behind flags land together in one minor, and the candidate cycle is purely stabilisation. The release-publishing and verification work appearing in rc2 suggests supply-chain provenance is being treated as release-blocking rather than as a follow-up.
◆ Prediction
With three candidates carrying identical feature lists, v1.1.0 final is the likely next release, followed by a fresh batch of experiments opening for v1.2.

ToolJet bundles MCP, multi-LLM switching, and PATs in a single beta — shifting from app builder to AI development platform
◆ Current state
ToolJet v3.21.71-beta landed the platform's most consequential feature batch in recent memory: Personal Access Tokens, two-factor authentication, LLM provider switching with AI query transformation, MCP authentication via PATs, OneNote integration, CSV import into ToolJet DB, multi-model build support with a redesigned model picker, OTel observability on semantic conventions, and an AI-powered content generation option. The LTS branch ships more conservatively, receiving MCP bundling in the EE image and AI build cancellation support.
◆ Where it's heading
ToolJet is repositioning from a low-code internal tool builder to an AI-native development platform. The MCP integration and multi-LLM provider switching indicate they're building for a world where AI agents are first-class citizens in app logic. The PAT + MCP combination creates a developer-facing API surface that third-party tools can call against ToolJet-managed apps, which is a meaningfully different product direction.
◆ Prediction
The beta's LLM-switching and MCP foundation will likely surface as a differentiated 'AI workflows' tier in a future pricing change, separating standard app-building from agentic AI features that consume LLM credits.
