Methods and tools for reading culture at scale.

Forty-four exam-style drills for the Claude Certified Architect — Foundations (CCA-F) exam, organized by the five exam domains and grounded in the real infrastructure of this server: its Django apps, MCP servers, SQLite and Postgres databases, systemd units, and Docker services. Every drill pairs a scenario multiple-choice question with a hands-on coding exercise, a reference solution, a full exam rationale, and notes on applying the concept to a production system you can actually touch.

How does an AI assistant stop hallucinating and start knowing? This graduate course teaches the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — the open standard that connects language models to real tools and data — using CourseHub's own live MCP infrastructure as the case study and Remi as your laboratory. You will interrogate a frozen language model, call scholarly APIs by hand, probe retrieval (RAG), speak raw MCP over the wire, trace one question through seven infrastructure hops, compare four integration architectures on one research question, dissect the security and politics of tool curation, and design an MCP tool surface for a source from your own research.
