  "summary": "It replaces naive retrieval over raw work records with a curated experience corpus (rules, constraints, negative examples, corner cases, callable skills) built from practitioner records and interviews through a nine-layer extraction process. The cost is primarily human and engineering effort: interviews, semantic alignment, cross-review, and ongoing consolidation of 1,576 source files into tens of thousands of curated assets, rather than GPU or model-training spend. It can fail when expert time is unavailable, when domains drift so curated rules and boundaries go stale, or when the reported gains do not transfer since evaluation is internal, sample-based (20 practitioners), and lacks independent replication or public tooling.",
  "rationale": "The quality gain over raw RAG is substantial and achievable without foundation-model training, but the method depends on costly expert curation and an unvalidated internal pipeline, so a small-scale pilot on one domain is warranted before production adoption.",
