KUPAS MASTER: Distilling the Tacit Expertise of Master Practitioners into Agent-Ready Experience Corpora

Abstract:Experienced professionals know more than just facts and conclusions. They know which cues matter, why a judgment is reasonable, and which action to take. Routine work records often leave out this tacit knowledge, making it difficult for Large Language Model (LLM) agents to use professional experience effectively. We introduce KUPAS MASTER, an experience engineering platform built around nine-layer cognitive corpus construction. It turns heterogeneous work records and practitioner interviews into traceable, reusable experience corpora for agents. Six case elements preserve the task process: context, cues, judgment, action, boundaries, and outcomes. Nine-layer cognitive corpus construction organizes tacit experience along nine extraction dimensions and stores the resulting assets in six libraries: rules, constraints, best practices, negative examples, corner cases, and skills. Semantic alignment, individual experience distillation, organizational consolidation, and cross-review preserve source evidence, conditions of use, and unresolved disagreements. The platform packages these assets into callable skills with explicit inputs, steps, dependencies, and stopping conditions, connecting experience collection to task execution and evaluation feedback. Using authorized samples from 20 randomly selected practitioners, the platform processed 1,576 source files into 23,024 individual experience records and 13,113 organizational assets. The evaluation spans multiple professional domains. Under common task inputs and scoring criteria, the base model, raw corpus retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and KUPAS MASTER agent scored 70.63, 79.75, and 89.58, respectively. The KUPAS MASTER agent improved on raw-corpus RAG in all seven scoring dimensions. The platform provides a practical path from individual tacit experience to organizational knowledge and agent capabilities.
