Droid picks up the task, pulls Jira and Confluence context via Atlassian MCP, runs the engineering work in a chosen environment, streams progress into the Jira chat, and writes results back to the ticket. The integration runs as a Forge Remote Agent using the A2A protocol. Factory is model-independent and can run on Factory-managed compute, customer infrastructure, or fully air-gapped environments. It requires Jira Cloud with Rovo enabled, and each Factory organization links to one Jira site. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### Can I run an AI coding agent directly from a Jira ticket? Yes, Factory's Droid coding agent can be invoked from a Jira work item through Rovo Chat. It picks up the Jira task, pulls Jira and Confluence context through Atlassian MCP, runs the engineering work in a configured environment, streams progress into Jira chat, and writes results back to the ticket as a Forge Remote Agent using the A2A protocol. _Teams weighing AI agent workflows for ticket-driven development can track integrations like this on daily.dev._ ### Does Factory's Droid agent support air-gapped or on-premise deployments? Yes, Factory is model-independent and deploys across Factory-managed compute, customer infrastructure, or fully air-gapped environments. This lets enterprises keep control over where agents run and which AI models they use, which matters for regulated industries with strict infrastructure requirements. _Engineers evaluating secure AI agent deployment options can follow coverage of tools like this on daily.dev._ ### What are the requirements to use the Factory Droid and Jira integration? The Forge Remote Agent integration requires Jira Cloud with Rovo enabled. Each Factory organization links to exactly one Jira site, and Droid is configured on first use by selecting a compute environment, model settings, and service accounts, which can then become defaults for future tasks. _Developers planning AI agent rollouts in Jira can keep tabs on setup requirements via daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Rovo at Work: AI agents in action](https://daily.dev/posts/rovo-at-work-ai-agents-in-action-phtngdfbr) · Atlassian · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Atlassian MCP Server: Quick Start with Your Favorite Agent](https://daily.dev/posts/atlassian-mcp-server-quick-start-with-your-favorite-agent-kd08iimdf) · Docker · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Beyond the Jira board: how autonomous workflows unlock engineering velocity](https://daily.dev/posts/beyond-the-jira-board-how-autonomous-workflows-unlock-engineering-velocity-g3s2s4agr) · Atlassian · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Dynatrace MCP Server for Atlassian Rovo: Investigate production problems without leaving Jira or JSM](https://daily.dev/posts/dynatrace-mcp-server-for-atlassian-rovo-investigate-production-problems-without-leaving-jira-or-jsm-vcgftae2f) · Dynatrace · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Atlassian Underpins Code Creation With New Agentic Insight Channels](https://daily.dev/posts/atlassian-underpins-code-creation-with-new-agentic-insight-channels-jubmprpyk) · DevOps.com · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#ai-agents](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-agents), [#mcp](https://daily.dev/tags/mcp), [#atlassian](https://daily.dev/tags/atlassian), [#jira](https://daily.dev/tags/jira) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/factory-brings-autonomous-coding-work-into-jira-rz0kpvsoi) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Factory brings autonomous coding work into Jira","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/factory-brings-autonomous-coding-work-into-jira-rz0kpvsoi","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/factory-brings-autonomous-coding-work-into-jira-rz0kpvsoi"},"datePublished":"2026-10-27T20:15:50.874Z","dateModified":"2026-10-27T20:33:40.931Z","description":"Factory's Droid coding agent can now be invoked directly from a Jira work item through Rovo Chat.
