Question 18
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: Claude Code for Continuous Integration - Your code review component is iterative: Claude analyzes the changed file, then may request related files (imports, base classes, tests) via tool calls to understand context before providing final feedback. Your application defines a tool that lets Claude request file contents; Claude calls the tool, gets results, and continues analysis. You’re evaluating batch processing to reduce API cost. What is the primary technical limitation when considering batch processing for this workflow? What is the primary technical limitation?
- ABatch processing does not include correlation IDs to map outputs back to input requests.
- BThe asynchronous model cannot execute tools mid-request and return results for Claude to continue analysis.
- CThe Batch API does not support tool definitions in request parameters.
- DThe batch processing latency of up to 24 hours is too slow for pull request feedback, although the workflow would otherwise function.
