1. Have the agent propose the call: Which approach best meets the requirement?

Medium
A manufacturer wants an agent to create maintenance orders, but every order must pass authorization and validation before execution. Which approach best meets the requirement?
  1. Require employees to manually recreate every model recommendation in the maintenance system.
    Manual recreation avoids automation but fails the requirement for controlled agent-assisted order creation.
  2. Have the agent propose the call, then let an authorized runtime validate and execute it. ✓
    A surrounding runtime should authorize, validate, execute, and return results for impactful business actions.
  3. Grant the agent unrestricted access to the maintenance database and audit results afterward.
    Unrestricted access violates least-privilege principles and moves control after potentially damaging execution.
  4. Let the model directly submit maintenance orders through its generated tool call.
    The model proposes calls, but direct execution bypasses required authorization and validation controls.
The trap
Removes useful automation instead of controlling execution. Treats post-action auditing as a substitute for prevention. Confuses proposed tool calls with authorized application execution.

Use the model for proposals; keep authorization, validation, and execution in the surrounding application runtime.

2. Whether it can retrieve and generate answers: Which evaluation criterion is most relevant when selecting Agent

Medium
A media company wants answers over licensed articles, transcripts, and internal archives while respecting user permissions. Which evaluation criterion is most relevant when selecting Agent Search?
  1. Whether it can retrieve and generate answers from configured enterprise sources with access controls. ✓
    Agent Search is evaluated on configured enterprise retrieval, generated answers, and permission-aware access.
  2. Whether it searches public web pages without requiring private corpus configuration.
    Public web search does not by itself provide retrieval from the company’s private licensed corpus.
  3. Whether it replaces editorial permissions with a single unrestricted search index for convenience.
    Removing permissions conflicts with the company’s requirement to protect licensed and internal content.
  4. Whether it fine-tunes foundation-model weights on every newly published article automatically.
    Enterprise retrieval supplies current source content at inference rather than automatically retraining model weights.
The trap
Mistakes retrieval for continuous model retraining. Treats convenience as more important than governed access. Confuses public search grounding with enterprise retrieval.

Assess configured private-source retrieval, generated answers, and permission handling—not merely public web coverage.

3. Model Garden, because it provides discovery and access: Which component is responsible for model discovery and

Medium
A retailer’s workflow requires comparing open and partner models, then deploying the selected model through governed cloud tooling. Which component is responsible for model discovery and access?
  1. RAG, because it changes model weights whenever the retailer adds new product information.
    RAG retrieves external information during inference and does not ordinarily alter model weights.
  2. Agent Search, because it is the general catalog for every deployable model and license.
    Agent Search focuses on retrieval and generated answers, not universal model cataloging or licensing.
  3. AutoML, because it automatically trains every selected foundation model from retailer data.
    AutoML trains suitable custom models from labeled task data; it is not universal foundation-model training.
  4. Model Garden, because it provides discovery and access to supported Google, partner, and open models. ✓
    Model Garden supports discovering and accessing multiple model sources within the broader managed platform.
The trap
Assigns enterprise search responsibilities to model discovery. Confuses retrieval with fine-tuning or model training. Confuses supervised custom training with model marketplace access.

Model Garden supports discovery and access across supported Google, partner, and open model choices.

4. Create a Gem with reusable instructions for the recurring: Which capability best fits?

Medium
A logistics company wants dispatchers to reuse a consistent instruction set for summarizing shipment exceptions inside their conversational assistant. Which capability best fits?
  1. Deploy a custom Agent Platform agent with tools, orchestration, and production monitoring.
    A custom agent is broader than needed when the requirement is reusable conversational instructions.
  2. Create a Gem with reusable instructions for the recurring exception-summary task. ✓
    Gems configure reusable instructions for recurring assistance without requiring model-weight changes.
  3. Use Gemini for Google Workspace to embed shipment summaries into every supported office application.
    Workspace integration addresses embedded work-product assistance, not necessarily reusable assistant instructions.
  4. Use Gemini Enterprise to search all company sources before every dispatcher conversation.
    Enterprise search addresses cross-source discovery, not primarily reusable task instructions for one assistant.
The trap
Selects enterprise retrieval when instruction reuse is decisive. Confuses embedded productivity assistance with configured conversational behavior. Chooses production orchestration for a simpler reusable-instruction need.

A Gem packages reusable instructions for recurring assistance, whereas the other choices address broader workflows.

5. Use Agent Platform with retrieval: What should it do next?

Medium
A finance team needs current policy documents retrieved during answers, must evaluate response quality, and wants managed deployment and governance. What should it do next?
  1. Use Agent Platform with retrieval, evaluation, governed deployment, and monitoring for the policy assistant. ✓
    Agent Platform supports managed development, retrieval, evaluation, deployment, governance, and optimization workflows.
  2. Train an AutoML model because labeled policy documents are equivalent to retrieval sources.
    AutoML supports suitable supervised custom models, while current policy lookup requires retrieval at inference.
  3. Use public Google Search grounding because financial policies should be broadly discoverable.
    Public grounding cannot substitute for controlled retrieval from private finance policy sources.
  4. Fine-tune immediately on historical policies and assume future policy changes will be absorbed automatically.
    Fine-tuning changes behavior from examples but does not automatically incorporate future live policy content.
The trap
Treats fine-tuning as a continuously updated knowledge repository. Substitutes public information for governed internal knowledge. Confuses labeled training data with live retrieval requirements.

Agent Platform combines managed retrieval, evaluation, deployment, governance, and monitoring for this controlled assistant.

6. Validate required tool arguments in the application before: Which approach is best?

Easy
A nonprofit wants an agent to draft donation-record updates, but the application must reject missing donor IDs before any database write. Which approach is best?
  1. Validate required tool arguments in the application before executing the update. ✓
    Application-side validation can reject incomplete arguments before an impactful database operation occurs.
  2. Write the update first, then flag incomplete records for later correction.
    Post-write correction fails the explicit requirement to reject missing identifiers beforehand.
  3. Give the agent broad database permissions so it can resolve missing identifiers itself.
    Broad permissions increase risk and do not guarantee validated arguments before writing.
  4. Ask the model to remember donor IDs and trust its generated arguments.
    Model output alone does not guarantee required fields or safe execution.
The trap
Treats natural-language generation as deterministic validation. Uses excessive access instead of explicit validation. Moves validation after the irreversible action.

Validate tool arguments in the application before execution, preserving control over database writes.

7. It cannot provide private case-file retrieval through: What limitation applies to public search grounding?

Medium
A city department compares two approaches for resident answers.

Exhibit:
- Public search grounding: current public web information; no private case-file connector.
- Agent Search: configured department documents and structured data; permissions apply.

The department needs answers from restricted case files. What limitation applies to public search grounding?
  1. It cannot answer questions about any current information available on the public web.
    Public search grounding is specifically intended to use current public or world information.
  2. It automatically bypasses department permissions when restricted files appear in search results.
    Public grounding does not retrieve restricted case files or automatically bypass enterprise permissions.
  3. It retrains the department’s model whenever residents publish relevant public information.
    Grounding provides information during response generation rather than automatically retraining model weights.
  4. It cannot provide private case-file retrieval through public grounding alone. ✓
    Public search grounding supplies world information, not a private enterprise document connector by itself.
The trap
Invents unrestricted access to private department records. Confuses grounding with continuous model training. Overstates the limitation beyond private enterprise content.

Public grounding covers public information; private case files require configured enterprise retrieval and permissions.

8. Compare license terms: Which next step best supports a defensible deployment decision?

Medium
A manufacturer has shortlisted an open-weight model and a managed partner model for a regulated production assistant. Both meet its initial quality target. Which next step best supports a defensible deployment decision?
  1. Compare license terms, data handling, controls and operating responsibilities. ✓
    Both candidates need a deployment-specific review of rights, governance and operational ownership before selection.
  2. Compare leaderboard ranks and select the model with the highest overall score.
    General rankings do not resolve the stated enterprise deployment and governance responsibilities.
  3. Compare inference rates and choose the model with the lowest token price.
    Price is relevant but does not by itself address regulated use, governance and supportability.
  4. Compare parameter counts and choose the larger model for this workload.
    Parameter count alone does not establish suitable licensing, controls, support or operational fit.
The trap
Replacing deployment-specific evaluation with a general ranking. Treating model scale as evidence of deployment suitability. Reducing a regulated deployment decision to unit cost.

Compare deployment responsibilities and controls for both candidates.

9. Create a Gem containing the reusable briefing instructions: Which approach best meets the requirement?

Medium
A media company wants editors to reuse a standard instruction set for converting interview transcripts into a consistent briefing format within their conversational assistant. Which approach best meets the requirement?
  1. Build a custom production agent with multiple tools and independent orchestration.
    Custom agents suit broader workflows; this requirement only needs consistent reusable task instructions.
  2. Create a Gem containing the reusable briefing instructions. ✓
    A Gem packages reusable instructions for repeated assistance without changing foundation-model weights.
  3. Fine-tune a foundation model on every editor’s preferred briefing format.
    Fine-tuning is unnecessary for reusable instructions and introduces a broader model-development workflow.
  4. Deploy enterprise search across all company sources before applying the briefing format.
    Enterprise search addresses cross-source retrieval, not primarily reusable formatting instructions.
The trap
Confuses source discovery with instruction reuse. Selects a larger platform solution than the stated need. Uses model training for a configuration problem.

Gems provide reusable instructions for recurring conversational tasks such as consistent transcript briefings.

10. Whether the model’s supported languages: Which evaluation criterion is most relevant?

Easy
A retailer is selecting a model for a multilingual product-support assistant. The team can consider Google, partner, and open models through its managed cloud environment. Which evaluation criterion is most relevant?
  1. Whether every available model has identical capabilities, licenses, and deployment locations.
    Google, partner, and open models differ in capabilities, licenses, and deployment options.
  2. Whether Model Garden removes the need for testing because listed models are universally production-ready.
    Model discovery does not replace application evaluation, testing, governance, or production readiness assessment.
  3. Whether the model is open source, regardless of multilingual quality or business requirements.
    Openness alone does not establish language quality, suitability, licensing, or operational fit.
  4. Whether the model’s supported languages, quality, licensing, and deployment fit match the retailer’s needs. ✓
    Model selection should assess task quality, language support, licensing, deployment fit, and operational requirements.
The trap
Assumes model choices are interchangeable. Uses one attribute instead of evaluating the complete requirement. Treats catalog availability as proof of suitability.

Evaluate language capability, quality, licensing, deployment fit, and operational suitability for the specific assistant.

11. Cloud Storage holds the policy objects: Select TWO components responsible for this workflow.

Hard
A customer support team wants an assistant to retrieve approved policy files from object storage during conversations. Select TWO components responsible for this workflow.

Select two. More than one option is correct — every correct one is ticked below.

  1. Cloud Run independently supplies policy answers
    Cloud Run runs application services but does not independently provide object retrieval or grounded answers.
  2. Document AI automatically stores every policy object
    Document AI extracts and analyzes documents; it is not the object-storage service in this workflow.
  3. Cloud Storage holds the policy objects ✓
    Cloud Storage provides durable object storage for the approved policy files the assistant must retrieve.
  4. An authorized Agent Platform retrieval tool fetches matching objects ✓
    A configured retrieval tool connects the agent to permitted data and returns relevant content during inference.
  5. A database replaces object storage for unstructured policies
    Databases manage structured, queryable state, whereas the scenario identifies policy files as stored objects.
The trap
Confuses document processing with durable object storage. Confuses application hosting with the configured retrieval responsibility. Applies structured database storage to unstructured file retrieval.

Cloud Storage stores the files, while an authorized retrieval tool obtains relevant objects for the assistant.

12. Conversational Agents for customer-facing self-service: Which capability should the leader prioritize?

Easy
A consulting firm wants customers to resolve routine questions on its website without waiting for representatives. Which capability should the leader prioritize?
  1. Conversational Insights for aggregate interaction analysis
    Conversational Insights analyzes conversations and trends; it does not conduct the primary customer dialog.
  2. Agent Assist for representative suggestions during live interactions
    Agent Assist supports human representatives rather than replacing the customer-facing self-service conversation.
  3. Conversational Agents for customer-facing self-service conversations ✓
    Conversational Agents support customer-facing dialog and self-service, matching the firm's requirement to answer routine questions.
  4. CCaaS for omnichannel contact-center operations and routing
    CCaaS manages contact-center operations, while the explicit requirement is automated customer self-service.
The trap
Selects broader contact-center operations instead of self-service. Confuses conversation analytics with customer-facing dialogue. Targets representatives instead of unattended customer self-service.

Conversational Agents directly support customer-facing self-service, unlike representative assistance or analytics capabilities.
