I’m pretty confident that thiazolidinediones don’t act on the pancreas at all, but I’m uncertain about the others.

That's correct! Sulfonylureas stimulate the release of insulin from beta cells in the pancreas, while GLP-1 receptor agonists increase insulin secretion and decrease glucagon secretion.
