Summary

src/cleveragents/infrastructure/database/models.py has a SyntaxError that prevents the module from being compiled. The file has from .new_models import (...) at line 2, followed by the module docstring and then from __future__ import annotations at line 41. Python requires from __future__ imports to appear at the very beginning of a file (before any other code), so this causes a SyntaxError that crashes the entire behave test suite on startup.

What Was Tested

  • File: src/cleveragents/infrastructure/database/models.py
  • Impact: All behave tests that import from cleveragents.application.container (which transitively imports database/models.py)

Expected Behavior

The module should compile without errors. from __future__ import annotations must be the first statement in the file (after the module docstring, if any).

Actual Behavior

SyntaxError: from __future__ imports must occur at the beginning of the file (models.py, line 41)

This error propagates through the import chain:

behave → features/steps/acms_backends_steps.py
  → cleveragents.application.container
    → cleveragents.actor.registry
      → cleveragents.application.services.actor_service
        → cleveragents.infrastructure.database.unit_of_work
          → cleveragents.infrastructure.database.__init__
            → cleveragents.infrastructure.database.models
              → SyntaxError at line 41

This causes the entire behave test suite to fail to load, meaning zero tests can run.

Root Cause

The file begins with:

# Line 1: (blank)
# Line 2-7: from .new_models import (...)
# Line 8-39: module docstring
# Line 41: from __future__ import annotations  ← INVALID POSITION

The from .new_models import (...) statement was inserted at the top of the file (likely by an automated tool or merge conflict resolution), pushing the from __future__ import annotations import to line 41 where it is no longer valid.

Verified with

import py_compile
py_compile.compile('/app/src/cleveragents/infrastructure/database/models.py', doraise=True)
# py_compile.PyCompileError: SyntaxError: from __future__ imports must occur at the beginning of the file (models.py, line 41)

Impact

  • Critical: The entire behave test suite fails to start — zero BDD tests can run
  • All 500+ behave scenarios that import from the container are broken
  • CI/CD pipeline for BDD tests is completely broken
  • Any developer running behave locally gets an immediate crash

Fix

Move the from .new_models import (...) statement to after the from __future__ import annotations import, or restructure the file so that:

  1. from __future__ import annotations is the first statement
  2. Module docstring follows
  3. Other imports follow

Correct structure:

"""SQLAlchemy database models for CleverAgents.
...
"""
from __future__ import annotations

from .new_models import (
    ResourceModel,
    ResourceEdgeModel,
    DecisionModel,
    DecisionDependencyModel,
)

import json
import logging
...
