A strategy manager is reviewing a Claude-generated recommendation to consolidate the company's two regional warehouses into one. The recommendation cites three sources that estimate cost savings and one source confirming that consolidation is operationally feasible. Two source documents also contain estimates of one-time transition costs and a stakeholder concern about regional service levels, neither of which appears in the recommendation.
Which concern is most warranted?

• A. The recommendation is sound because every source it cites supports the consolidation conclusion.
• B. The recommendation reflects selective use of the source documents and should be re-prompted to address the transition costs and the service-level concern before it is used.
• C. The recommendation is acceptable for an initial round, but the missing material should be added in a separate appendix rather than re-prompting the original output.
• D. The recommendation should be rejected because it relies on only four sources, which is insufficient for a decision of this size.

A product manager is using Claude to ideate options for a new self-service portal. The team needs breadth before narrowing and will evaluate trade-offs across the options in a separate session.
Which prompting strategy fits this stage?

• A. Request multiple distinct options with stated trade-offs, and avoid committing to a single recommendation in this round.
• B. Request multiple distinct options and ask Claude to recommend the strongest one with reasoning, so the team starts the trade-off discussion from a leading candidate.
• C. Request multiple distinct options ordered by Claude's assessment of feasibility, so the team can focus its trade-off discussion on the most feasible options first.
• D. Request a single recommended option with strong reasoning, since well-reasoned single options give the team a clearer starting point than several weakly reasoned alternatives.

A manager is deciding what changes to make while conducting a Memory maintenance review for a long- running workflow.
Which two actions best support Memory quality over time? (Select two.)

• A. Leave all memories untouched on the basis that the workflow has been running consistently and no output-quality issues have been reported.
• B. Delete all memories as the maintenance action to ensure a clean slate, then allow Claude to rebuild context organically through subsequent workflow runs.
• C. Disable Memory entirely to eliminate the risk of stale entries surfacing in future workflow runs.
• D. Export the current memories as a backup before making changes, so prior context can be restored if a maintenance edit unintentionally removes information the workflow still depends on.
• E. Identify and edit or delete entries that are stale, inaccurate, or no longer relevant, and add context Claude has not automatically captured but the workflow continues to need.

You have iterated a Claude prompt eight times, and the output quality has plateaued for the last four attempts.
Which conclusion is most appropriate?

• A. Iteration should continue indefinitely because more attempts always improve quality.
• B. Iteration should stop and the task should be abandoned without communicating to stakeholders.
• C. Iteration should stop and the current output should be accepted as-is regardless of remaining issues.
• D. Iteration has reached diminishing returns and the next step is human review or a different approach.

You are an analyst fact-checking a Claude-generated report. Two cited sources give conflicting dates for the same event.
Which approach is correct?

• A. Average the two conflicting dates and use the average.
• B. Locate a primary or authoritative source for the event and use the date that source confirms.
• C. Publish both dates without resolving the conflict and let the reader choose.
• D. Choose the more recent date on the basis that later sources typically reflect updated or corrected information.
