you can find out by trying ...

the lookup is using the third argument, the replacement is the fourth
auffasste => auf\zwnj fasste
when not hyphenated (without the () the third one is the replacement)
\enabletrackers[hyphenation.applied.visualize]
\startexceptions[de]
au{f-}{f}{ff}as-ste
au{f-}{f}{ff}(f!f)ax-xte
\stopexceptions
\mainlanguage[de]
\dorecurse{100}{#1 auffasste auffaxxte }
