What is Sonarr?

Sonarr 5.0 builds add Trakt Smart Lists, OIDC Remember Me and more accessibility fixes.

Sonarr is publishing 5.0 test builds every few days. Recent ones added a Trakt Smart List import, an option to pass seed time to qBittorrent as an inactive-seeding limit, Remember Me for OIDC login and lower-memory media info migration. Accessibility work continues, with screen-reader feedback for form errors, named icon-only controls and an accessible Calendar.

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.

5.0

Sonarr 5.0 builds add Trakt Smart Lists, OIDC Remember Me and more accessibility fixes.

◆ Current state

Sonarr is publishing 5.0 test builds every few days. Recent ones added a Trakt Smart List import, an option to pass seed time to qBittorrent as an inactive-seeding limit, Remember Me for OIDC login and lower-memory media info migration. Accessibility work continues, with screen-reader feedback for form errors, named icon-only controls and an accessible Calendar.

◆ Where it's heading

5.0 is in a polish phase: each build mixes small features from contributors with accessibility and UI fixes, after the earlier builds removed Basic Auth and tightened file safety. The pace suggests the team is converging on a stable 5.0.

◆ Prediction

Expect more accessibility and migration fixes before 5.0 reaches the stable channel; new large features look unlikely this late.

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.
