Question 14
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: Multi-agent Research System - In testing, the combined output of the web-search agent (85K tokens including page content) and the document analysis agent (70K tokens including chains of thought) totals 155K tokens, but the synthesis agent performs best with inputs under 50K tokens. Which solution is most effective? Which solution is most effective?
- AModify upstream agents to return structured data (key facts, quotes, relevance scores) instead of verbose content and reasoning.
- BAdd an intermediate summarization agent that condenses findings before passing them to synthesis.
- CHave the synthesis agent process findings in sequential batches, maintaining state between calls.
- DStore findings in a vector database and give the synthesis agent search tools to query during its work.
