What is Dokploy?

A self-hosted PaaS spending its releases on secrets, injection fixes and plan limits.

Dokploy cuts patch releases every one to two weeks, and the recent stream is dominated by hardening rather than features. v0.29.12 added AES-256-GCM encryption for environment variables at rest and made backups carry the full keyring; v0.29.13 closed an OS command injection in git clone across all providers. The newest tag says outright that it is bug fixes only. Alongside that, plan limits landed in v0.29.10.

What is ToolJet?

ToolJet ships AI Builder release 4 to its LTS line, with Gemini 4 Argon support.

ToolJet's LTS v3.20.250 brings AI Builder release 4 into the enterprise edition, with cancellation handling and Gemini 4 Argon as a model option; v3.20.248 added workspace MCP OAuth with SSO login. The beta line spent the week on Node 22.23.4 for the October security release, file-permission and license-check fixes, a page-panel crash fix, and an environment flag that limits ToolJet Database edits to admins.

6.3

A self-hosted PaaS spending its releases on secrets, injection fixes and plan limits.

◆ Current state

Dokploy cuts patch releases every one to two weeks, and the recent stream is dominated by hardening rather than features. v0.29.12 added AES-256-GCM encryption for environment variables at rest and made backups carry the full keyring; v0.29.13 closed an OS command injection in git clone across all providers. The newest tag says outright that it is bug fixes only. Alongside that, plan limits landed in v0.29.10.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is a self-hosted platform trying to earn production trust: encrypted secrets, injection fixes, a pinned install script tied to each release, and Postgres query rewrites to stop hitting the 100-argument limit on rollbacks, schedules and backups. Plan limits point the other way — toward a commercial tier layered on the open-source core. Both arcs suggest the project is past feature-chasing and into making the platform defensible.

◆ Prediction

Expect the hardening thread to continue into the rest of the 0.29 line, with the plan-limits work being the seed of a paid tier that gets more definition before a 0.30 release.

5.0

ToolJet ships AI Builder release 4 to its LTS line, with Gemini 4 Argon support.

◆ Current state

ToolJet's LTS v3.20.250 brings AI Builder release 4 into the enterprise edition, with cancellation handling and Gemini 4 Argon as a model option; v3.20.248 added workspace MCP OAuth with SSO login. The beta line spent the week on Node 22.23.4 for the October security release, file-permission and license-check fixes, a page-panel crash fix, and an environment flag that limits ToolJet Database edits to admins.

◆ Where it's heading

The AI Builder work that sat in beta is now reaching LTS customers, alongside MCP connections that respect SSO. Most other changes on both lines are security bumps and hardening, which fits a product selling to enterprises that run the LTS track.

◆ Prediction

Expect AI Builder to keep adding models and EE controls on LTS, and more admin-level permission flags like the database-edit restriction.
