1. A team wants to switch their AI pipeline from Claude to Kimi. According to the migration playbook, what is the MOST important task after changing the SDK base URL and model ID?

   1. Switching all production traffic to Kimi immediately
   2. Removing the old API credentials to prevent confusion
   3. Rewriting all system prompts to match Kimi's expected format
   4. Running a comprehensive evaluation set to detect behavioral differences

2. Why does the lesson recommend keeping the old pipeline live behind a feature flag for at least one week after migrating?

   1. To train the new model on production data
   2. To compare token usage between both models
   3. To enable immediate rollback if metrics show regression
   4. To double the API request costs for safety

3. What does the lesson identify as the highest-risk change when migrating from Claude to Kimi?

   1. Changing the SDK base URL
   2. Modifying tool/function schemas
   3. Updating the model ID and parameters
   4. Rewriting prompts that exploit Claude-specific quirks

4. A developer notices that Kimi produces a different citation format than Claude for the same document. What type of regression is this?

   1. A token-budget regression
   2. A refusal-handling regression
   3. A quiet behavioral regression
   4. A latency cliff

5. Before launching a migration, the lesson recommends deciding and documenting what specific element?

   1. The list of engineers who can approve rollbacks
   2. The exact date and time of the migration
   3. The new pricing tier for the migrated pipeline
   4. The rollback criteria with specific thresholds

6. The lesson warns that the same 500-page document may consume a different number of tokens on Kimi than on Claude. Why does this matter?

   1. It affects how the model processes long documents
   2. It impacts cost and context-budget assumptions
   3. It changes the model's reasoning approach
   4. It alters the document's semantic meaning

7. What is an 'evaluation harness' in the context of this migration workflow?

   1. A tool that automatically switches between AI providers
   2. A system for managing feature flags in production
   3. A monitoring dashboard for API latency metrics
   4. A testing framework that scores model outputs against expected results

8. A migration team sees that Kimi is giving confidently wrong numerical answers where Claude was correct. What should they do according to the playbook?

   1. Add this pattern to their eval set and monitor
   2. Switch back to Claude immediately without evaluation
   3. Ignore it if the confidence is high
   4. Adjust the temperature parameter to zero

9. What does the lesson mean by saying migrating to Kimi is an 'evals-driven change, not an SDK change'?

   1. SDK modifications are the biggest risk factor
   2. Evaluation should happen after switching traffic
   3. The primary work is verifying behavior, not writing code
   4. The code changes are more important than testing

10. When building an eval set for migration testing, what principle does the lesson recommend?

    1. Use exactly 10 test cases for quick validation
    2. Focus only on happy-path success cases
    3. Cover the workflow's real distribution, including edge cases
    4. Copy the eval set from another team's migration

11. What is a 'latency cliff' in the context of long-context AI workflows?

    1. A sudden drop in API availability
    2. A sharp increase in response time when crossing context-window thresholds
    3. A pricing change that makes the service unaffordable
    4. The moment when a model refuses to process a request

12. Why might a prompt that works on Claude fail or behave differently on Kimi even without explicit Claude-specific instructions?

    1. Kimi uses a completely different API version
    2. Claude and Kimi have different tokenization schemes
    3. The prompt may exploit implicit assumptions about Claude's training
    4. Kimi requires all prompts to be rewritten

13. What does the lesson say about the compatibility of tool and function schemas between Claude and Kimi?

    1. They are completely incompatible and must be rewritten
    2. They are mostly compatible with medium risk
    3. They require no changes whatsoever
    4. They are identical in every respect

14. A team migrates 10% of their traffic to Kimi while keeping 90% on Claude. What migration strategy is this?

    1. A/B testing
    2. Blue-green deployment
    3. Feature flag rollout
    4. Canary migration

15. What metrics does the lesson specifically say to watch during a gradual migration?

    1. User feedback scores and session length
    2. API error rate and token count only
    3. CPU usage and memory consumption
    4. Task success, latency, refusal rate, and cost
