+"""Synapse layer L2.6 — Agent Experience injection.
+
+When the user prompt contains `[arka:dispatch] <from> -> <target>`, this
+layer queries `core.governance.agent_experiences` for the target agent's
+recent experiences (REJECTED verdicts, lessons captured by the QG loop)
+and injects them as context so the dispatched specialist inherits prior
+failures across sessions.
+
+Designed as a standalone `Layer` subclass — engine wiring happens in a
+follow-up release (v3.74.1). For PR3 v1, callers (the UserPromptSubmit
+hook, or a manual dispatch wrapper) invoke `compute()` directly.
+
+Cache TTL: 30s. The experience file is appended-to, not rewritten, so a
+short TTL keeps newly-recorded lessons visible to the immediately-next
+dispatch.
