What is Microcks?

Microcks is quietly wiring LLM example generation into an API mocking tool built for Kubernetes.

Three release candidates are visible — 1.14.0-rc1 and rc2 in March 2026, then 1.15.0-rc1 in June. The 1.14 line added Sync-to-Async triggers with trigger info propagated to the async minion, pushed the Helm chart as an OCI artifact, fixed API health checks under bad connection configuration, and extended OpenAI-based example generation to the GPT-5 family. 1.15.0-rc1 is largely platform upkeep: Angular upgraded to v21, netty explicitly embedded in the native image, GraphQL extensions, paginated topic ARN lookup, and a corrected OpenAPI overlay export shape.

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.

Microcks is quietly wiring LLM example generation into an API mocking tool built for Kubernetes.

◆ Current state

Three release candidates are visible — 1.14.0-rc1 and rc2 in March 2026, then 1.15.0-rc1 in June. The 1.14 line added Sync-to-Async triggers with trigger info propagated to the async minion, pushed the Helm chart as an OCI artifact, fixed API health checks under bad connection configuration, and extended OpenAI-based example generation to the GPT-5 family. 1.15.0-rc1 is largely platform upkeep: Angular upgraded to v21, netty explicitly embedded in the native image, GraphQL extensions, paginated topic ARN lookup, and a corrected OpenAPI overlay export shape.

◆ Where it's heading

Two threads run in parallel. The deployment story keeps getting tightened for Kubernetes — OCI-packaged Helm charts, native-image reflection registration, an Uber distribution — which is where a mock server has to live to be useful in CI. The more interesting thread is example generation: authoring realistic mock data is the actual work of using a mocking tool, and Microcks is putting a model behind it rather than asking users to write it. That work is still surfacing as commit lines rather than headline features.

◆ Prediction

The 1.15 line should reach a final release given the pre-release pattern, and the LLM example generation is the thread most likely to move from plumbing to a named capability if it keeps expanding.

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.
