Question 116
CCA-F is a newly released exam. These practice questions reflect our best current understanding — the exact wording and question formats may change in the live exam until the certification matures. Use them to learn the concepts, not to memorize.
Scenario: Context Management and Reliability - A search subagent catches a timeout internally and returns an empty result set marked as success. The coordinator concludes "no matches found" and moves on, unaware that the search actually failed. What is the underlying anti-pattern?
- ASilent suppression: a failure was disguised as a valid empty result, so the coordinator cannot distinguish "no matches" from "search failed."
- BExcessive escalation of routine errors to the coordinator.
- CInfinite retries inside the subagent.
- DOver-narrow task decomposition by the coordinator.
