Question 1

A Claude application is producing outputs that drift away from the expected JSON format afterseveral conversation turns. The first few turns produce correctly formatted output, but later turnsgradually lose structure.How would you address the drift?

Options :

A : Identify the failure mode as format drift, examine how the conversation context evolves over turns, and address the drift through context management or output validation.

B : Truncate every response to the first few characters, validate that the truncated output matches the expected JSON structure, and log any mismatches for review.

C : Restart the application after every turn and monitor whether the format remains consistent across subsequent interactions.

D : Switch to a smaller Claude model and re-test the application to determine whether the drift persists across conversation turns.

Answer: A

Question 2

Your Claude agent has too many tools, and many of them have overlapping functionality. The agentoften picks an inappropriate tool when several could plausibly handle a request.How would you address the tool selection problem?

Options :

A : Add more tools to cover every variation of the requests the agent handles, on the grounds that more tools give the agent more accurate options to choose from.

B : Remove all tools and rely on the agent's general capability instead, with the application losing the workflows that previously relied on tools.

C : Add detailed examples to each tool's description so the agent can match incoming requests to the right tool by example, treating the examples as the team's selection mechanism.

D : Restructure the tool set by consolidating overlapping tools, removing unused tools, and clarifying tool descriptions so each tool has a distinct purpose.

Answer: D

Question 3

You are starting a new Claude application and have a small set of well-labeled examples thatdemonstrate the desired output format. You want to use these examples to guide Claude's behavior.How would you guide the application's behavior?

Options :

A : Use multi-shot prompting by including the labeled examples in the prompt so Claude can match the desired output format on each request.

B : Use zero-shot prompting and rely on the model's general capability to produce the desired output format consistently across all incoming requests.

C : Embed the examples in a database and retrieve them at runtime as reference material for the team.

D : Train a custom model on the labeled examples before deployment so that the application does not need to include the examples in any prompt during operation.

Answer: A

Question 4

You are setting up a Claude application that requires API keys for several external services. What is the best way to store the keys?

Options :

A : Put the keys in the application's configuration file and check the configuration file into the team's repository alongside the rest of the source code.

B : Store the keys in a secrets manager or environment-specific configuration that is not checked into source code, and load them at runtime.

C : Use a single shared key across all external services, so any developer working on the application can find the keys easily during development.

D : Email the keys to each developer as needed and have each developer paste the keys into their local environment when they begin working on the application's code.

Answer: B

Question 5

You are building a Claude application that needs to deliver model output to end users as it isgenerated, instead of waiting for the full response to complete.The Claude API mechanism you would use is...

Options :

A : Structured JSON output, which delivers responses only after the model has finalized the JSON shape across the entire response.

B : Streaming responses, which deliver tokens incrementally as the model generates them so users see output progressively.

C : The Batch API, which delivers full responses after a delay suitable for non-interactive workloads.

D : Prompt caching, which speeds up the cost profile of future requests and does not affect the delivery timing of the first response.
