Answer A is incorrect because this choice would give one agent every tool and permission so orchestration boundaries are unnecessary. That can address a neighboring concern, but it does not implement failed task despite a successful final model response; the decisive requirement in the stem therefore remains unresolved.

Answer B is incorrect because this choice would retry a side-effecting tool call without idempotency or completion checks. That can address a neighboring concern, but it does not implement failed task despite a successful final model response; the decisive requirement in the stem therefore remains unresolved.

Answer C is incorrect because this choice would treat tool invocation as proof that the business task completed successfully. That can address a neighboring concern, but it does not implement failed task despite a successful final model response; the decisive requirement in the stem therefore remains unresolved.

Answer D is incorrect because this choice would pass free-form model text directly into a tool that expects structured arguments. That can address a neighboring concern, but it does not implement failed task despite a successful final model response; the decisive requirement in the stem therefore remains unresolved.

 

Question 41

An agentic application must handle wrong-tool selection located from execution traces. Which control or implementation should the developer use?

1. Put tool credentials directly in the prompt instead of using an identity boundary.
2. Execute irreversible actions immediately without approval or argument validation.
3. Pass free-form model text directly into a tool that expects structured arguments.
4. Use execution traces to identify where the wrong tool was selected.
5. Hide tool errors from the coordinator agent and continue as though the step succeeded.

Correct Answer: D

Correct Answer

Question 42

A runtime design must distinguish agent evaluation for task completion from tool-call accuracy. Which implementation uses the correct capability for the requirement?

1. Treat tool invocation as proof that the business task completed successfully.
2. Put tool credentials directly in the prompt instead of using an identity boundary.
3. Evaluate end-to-end task completion separately from whether individual tool calls were formatted correctly.
4. Hide tool errors from the coordinator agent and continue as though the step succeeded.
5. Retry a side-effecting tool call without idempotency or completion checks.

Correct Answer: C

Question 43

An agentic application must handle repeated tool attempts diagnosed from a trajectory. Which control or implementation should the developer use?

1. Put tool credentials directly in the prompt instead of using an identity boundary.

3. Pass free-form model text directly into a tool that expects structured arguments.
4. Execute irreversible actions immediately without approval or argument validation.
5. Retry a side-effecting tool call without idempotency or completion checks.
