What changed

Adds Chapter 12, Get Certified — Turn Agentic Skill into Defensible Proof, to Build With AI.

New curriculum

  • Chapter guide with six linked lessons.
  • Timestamped companion-video watch map for the Claude Certified Architect — Foundations course.
  • Certification readiness brief and domain study matrix.
  • Agent loop, Agent SDK, tool-contract, stop-reason, and synthetic-fixture labs.
  • MCP, context, permission, prompt-injection, and trust-boundary lab.
  • End-to-end Community Workshop Digest certification evidence pack.
  • Scenario-defense exercises with worked patterns.
  • Workshop/video production rhythm that turns each segment into watch → translate → build → break → verify → defend → reflect.
  • Capstone bridge and precise claim ledger so learners do not confuse course completion, project evidence, and provider-issued certification.

Course integration

  • MkDocs navigation includes Chapter 12 and the certification source log.
  • README, syllabus, overview, repository inventory, and workload estimates updated from 54/11 to 60/12.
  • Assessment path, paired diagnostics, competency map, and Chapter 12 checkpoint updated.
  • Maintenance guide now points to the dated certification source log.

Source discipline

The chapter uses:

Provider-specific exam details are labeled as video-reported and include a “verify before scheduling” boundary.

Validation

  • Confirmed branch diff is limited to the new Chapter 12 curriculum, source log, navigation, inventory, assessment, diagnostics, and maintenance updates.
  • Checked all new lesson files for a source-level H1.
  • Checked chapter links, source links, timestamp links, lesson counts, checkpoint integration, and accidental literal newline artifacts.
  • Performed beginner, experienced-engineer, and career-switcher review passes for accessibility, simulation fallback, technical depth, evidence quality, and claim boundaries.
  • A local MkDocs build was not run because this workspace did not contain a checkout of the repository; the connected repository diff is ready for the repository’s normal CI/build checks.

Review focus

Please review the chapter’s tone, the CCA-F-specific framing, the desired lab depth, and whether the Chapter 12 checkpoint should be adjusted before merge.
