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.
What is WorkOS?
WorkOS is building identity infrastructure for the AI agent era, shipping MCP auth and named agent credentials in a single week.
WorkOS has moved decisively beyond SSO-and-SCIM. The product now covers feature flags with custom targeting, SCIM debugging via dashboard-level log inspection, user groups with role assignment, and OIDC hardening (PKCE, Private Key JWT, pinned token-endpoint methods). The Android SDK rounds out its mobile surface. It is a multi-capability auth platform, not just an enterprise login kit.

ToolJet
5.0INFRA · APIS
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.
WorkOS
7.5INFRA · APIS
WorkOS is building identity infrastructure for the AI agent era, shipping MCP auth and named agent credentials in a single week.
◆ Current state
WorkOS has moved decisively beyond SSO-and-SCIM. The product now covers feature flags with custom targeting, SCIM debugging via dashboard-level log inspection, user groups with role assignment, and OIDC hardening (PKCE, Private Key JWT, pinned token-endpoint methods). The Android SDK rounds out its mobile surface. It is a multi-capability auth platform, not just an enterprise login kit.
◆ Where it's heading
The last two weeks show a clear pivot toward agentic workloads: Agent Auth gives AI agents their own scoped, revocable identities, and MCP Enterprise-Managed Authorization lets identity providers control which agents can reach an MCP server. These are architectural additions that position WorkOS as the auth layer for AI systems, not just human users. Feature flags with custom targeting extend the product further into runtime configuration territory.
◆ Prediction
Expect WorkOS to deepen the agent identity model — likely adding agent-specific audit trails, usage metering per agent identity, and federation between agent credentials and existing enterprise SSO trees. The AuthKit Waitlist API suggests growth-stage SaaS tooling is a secondary expansion surface.
