You are comparing patterns for a batch document-classification job that follows fixed steps: extract metadata, classify, summarize, and persist.
Which pattern is the best fit and why?

• A. A workflow pattern, because the steps are well-defined and predictable per-request token cost is preferred over flexibility.
• B. A workflow pattern, because agentic patterns do not support tool invocations and therefore cannot execute the persist step that writes results to the downstream store.
• C. An agentic pattern, because the open-ended planning capability of agents produces more consistent structured outputs than a fixed workflow graph on classification tasks.
• D. An agentic pattern, because agents are categorically more accurate than workflows and therefore always preferable regardless of step predictability.

During an architectural review, the security team identifies a risk that adversarial content injected into retrieved documents could manipulate the model's behavior.
Which mitigation most directly addresses this threat?

• A. Score outputs against a stable adversarial evaluation set on each model-version change.
• B. Treat all retrieved content as untrusted input and apply input classifiers with output validation.
• C. Require citations for each claim and constrain responses to source-supported content.
• D. Restrict outbound tool calls to an approved destination allow-list.

You are reviewing a peer's end-to-end design for a Claude-based platform expected to scale to thousands of concurrent users.
For each statement, indicate Yes if it reflects sound architectural practice. Otherwise, select No.

You are integrating human review into a high-volume classification pipeline where reviewing every output is infeasible.
Which sampling strategy best balances throughput with quality oversight?

• A. No sampling, relying entirely on user complaints to reveal quality and safety problems after they affect users.
• B. Inverse sampling that reviews only high-confidence routine outputs and skips low-confidence and high- impact outputs.
• C. Risk-stratified sampling that reviews all low-confidence and high-impact outputs and a smaller random sample of high-confidence routine outputs.
• D. Universal review of every output regardless of confidence or throughput impact.

A solutions architect is analyzing stakeholder feedback collected after the first quarter of a Claude-powered procurement automation deployment. The feedback includes four statements: (1) "Our procurement team is processing 3x more purchase orders per analyst per day." (2) "We have eliminated the manual data entry role entirely and redeployed those staff to vendor relationship management." (3) "The API integration costs are running 40% over the projected per-transaction budget." (4) "Response latency during end-of-month batch runs is averaging 11 seconds, against our committed 5-second SLA." Which of the following correctly identifies the primary business value pillar each stakeholder statement represents?

• A. Statement 1: Efficiency; Statement 2: Productivity; Statement 3: Performance SLA; Statement 4:
  Solution Cost
• B. Statement 1: Transformation; Statement 2: Productivity; Statement 3: Solution Cost; Statement 4:
  Efficiency
• C. Statement 1: Efficiency; Statement 2: Transformation; Statement 3: Solution Cost; Statement 4:
  Performance SLA
• D. Statement 1: Productivity; Statement 2: Efficiency; Statement 3: Solution Cost; Statement 4:
  Performance SLA
