Closed-Loop Autonomous Software Development via Jira-Integrated Backlog Orchestration: A Case Study in Deterministic Control and Safety-Constrained Automation

ArXi:2604.05000v1 Announce Type: cross This paper presents a closed-loop system for software lifecycle management framed as a control architecture rather than a code-generation tool. The system manages a backlog of approximately 1,602 rows across seven task families, ingests 13 structured source documents, and executes a deterministic seven-stage pipeline implemented as seven scheduled automation lanes.
