Anthropic Claude Certified Architect – Foundations - CCAR-F Free Exam Questions

A. Request A, the function rename task

B. Request B, the error handling task

C. Both requests benefit equally

D. Neither request benefits significantly

A. Add a post-processing step using a second LLM call to verify each extracted value exists in the source document.

B. Add prompt instructions to return null for any field where information is not directly stated in the source.

C. Make all schema fields required (non-nullable) with strict validation rules to ensure the model only outputs verifiable data.

D. Upgrade to a more capable model tier with improved instruction-following to reduce hallucination tendencies.

A. You check whether Claude's response contains a text content block-if text is present, the agent has produced its final answer and the loop should exit.

B. You check the stop_reason field in each API response-the loop continues while it equals "tool_use" and exits when it changes to "end_turn" or another terminal value.

C. You track the number of tool calls made and exit the loop once a preconfigured maximum is reached.

D. You manually set the tool_choice parameter to "none" after the final expected tool call to force Claude to stop requesting tools.

A. Add documentation of each pattern to your CLAUDE.md file, establishing them as project conventions that Claude will apply automatically.

B. Describe the patterns from the three modules in natural language in your prompt, explaining the transaction handling approach, error format, and logging conventions Claude should follow.

C. Use @ references to include the three modules directly in your prompt, giving Claude concrete code examples of the patterns to follow.

D. Ask Claude to explore your codebase to find and understand the transaction, error handling, and logging patterns before generating the new module.

A. Create a fixed testing schedule upfront based on directory structure, allocating equal effort to each top- level directory regardless of code complexity or business importance.

B. Use Glob and Grep to map codebase structure, identify heavily-coupled modules, create a prioritized plan for high-impact areas, and revise as dependencies are discovered.

C. Systematically read all 200 files to create a complete function inventory before writing any tests, ensuring the testing plan accounts for every function before beginning.

D. Start writing tests for the first module alphabetically, using test failures and imports to discover related files organically.

A. Set temperature to 0 to eliminate output variability and ensure consistent formatting.

B. Pre-process source documents to standardize problematic formats before sending them for extraction.

C. Implement a secondary pipeline using a larger model tier to reprocess documents that fail validation.

D. Send a follow-up request including the validation error, asking the model to correct its output.

A. Implement automatic retries with exponential backoff for process_refund , keeping the conversation open until the refund is successfully processed.

B. Explain the billing, confirm refund eligibility, acknowledge the system issue preventing immediate processing, and offer escalation or retry later.

C. Escalate immediately to a human agent since the refund action cannot be completed.

D. Confirm the refund will be processed and close the conversation, since the system has all necessary information to complete it automatically.
