Admittedly I don't know Groovy well and I'm a bit biased due to bad experiences with Gradle builds and Jenkinsfiles.
But if you're most comfortable with the JDK, Scala 3 with the Scala CLI provides an unmatched developer experience for small scripts and command line tools. And the output can be self-contained JAR, a GraalVM native image, or even a Scala Native binary if you use compatible libraries.
