We just added a simple scripting feature to MonsterMQ.com.

Instead of building a MonsterMQ workflow for every small transformation, you can now create simple JavaScript scripts that run directly in the broker. For many use cases, that is much easier: subscribe to one or more input topics, process the data, publish the result.

And it goes beyond MQTT topics: scripts can also use database connections to read and write data directly from PostgreSQL, MySQL, Neo4J, making it possible to enrich, correlate, or persist data directly.

There is also AI generation support built in. Just describe what you want, for example: “take the JSON payload of the trigger topic and publish every single JSON item to a separate topic on output/expand/<item>” and the script gets generated for you.

Personally, I think this makes the MonsterMQ workflows unnecessary. For a lot of broker-side automation, a small script is simpler and easier to understand, especially when AI can help generate it.
