## Description
Everything you need to pass the Claude Certified Architect (CCA-F) exam, Anthropic's first official certification, in one 25-minute guide. We break down all five exam domains, the question pool, and a four-week study plan that actually gets you ready.

The Claude Certified Architect Foundations (CCA-F) is Anthropic's first certification, and this is the fastest way to understand exactly what it tests and how to prepare. You will learn how the agent loop really works (stop_reason, tool_use, and tool_result), how CLAUDE.md and Claude Code configuration are graded, how the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and tool design show up on the exam, and the wrong-answer patterns that cost most candidates points.

Whether you are a developer, AI engineer, or solutions architect getting certified on Claude, this is your complete roadmap from zero to exam-ready.
