Prowler vs Terragrunt: at a glance
What is Prowler?
Prowler's assistant decides what to do with findings; the patches keep the scanner honest
Prowler is shipping a minor release roughly weekly with patches filling the gaps. The agentic layer, Lighthouse, has moved from explaining findings to acting on them, with named skills attached to individual findings and every write path bound to the asking user's RBAC. Alongside that, 5.39.1 fixes an install path that had been quietly broken: 5.38.0 declared a cryptography floor its own dependencies capped below, so pip install prowler silently resolved back to 5.37.1.
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.

◆ Current state
Prowler is shipping a minor release roughly weekly with patches filling the gaps. The agentic layer, Lighthouse, has moved from explaining findings to acting on them, with named skills attached to individual findings and every write path bound to the asking user's RBAC. Alongside that, 5.39.1 fixes an install path that had been quietly broken: 5.38.0 declared a cryptography floor its own dependencies capped below, so pip install prowler silently resolved back to 5.37.1.
◆ Where it's heading
Two tracks run in parallel and rarely overlap. The minor releases push the commercial agentic surface forward — triage skills, page context, the MCP tool set — while the patches defend the parts everyone uses: dependency resolution, container CVEs, and check correctness. That second track matters more than its version numbers suggest, because a security scanner reporting PASS when an API call failed is worse than one that errors. 5.39.1 fixes exactly that in the ECS task-definition checks, and makes the SES public-access check evaluate every identity policy rather than stopping at the first.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next minor to extend Lighthouse skills to groups of findings rather than one at a time, with patch releases continuing to absorb Trivy and base-image CVE churn.

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.
