Talk me through your thinking if you like. When you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes).
Walk through how you would optimize token usage and latency for a high-throughput chat application using Claude models.
Discuss prompt caching, conversation-history management, model selection, streaming, concurrency, and request-level controls. Explain how you would measure quality, latency, throughput, cost, hallucinations, and prompt-injection resilience before and after each change. Include a practical implementation outline and identify the tradeoffs among latency, cost, context retention, and answer quality.
