I'm preparing for CCAR-F Domain 1: Agentic Architecture & Orchestration, the largest domain at 27% of the exam. We'll break down what Anthropic expects us to understand about agentic loops, multi-agent orchestration, subagents, task decomposition, workflows, Agent SDK hooks, and session management — in plain English, with examples, illustrations, hands-on experiments, and the architectural trade-offs that actually matter.
I'm preparing for the Claude Certified Architect – Foundations (CCAR-F) exam and documenting the journey along the way. I'll break down the 5 exam domains (what we actually need to know), the 6 scenarios (where we'll need to apply it), the exam format and weighting, the free resources I'm using, and my week-by-week preparation plan. All in plain English, with examples, illustrations, and hopefully without making us open 27 browser tabs just to answer one simple question.
