The src/cleveragents/domain/models/core/tool.py file has been identified as a violation of the Single Responsibility Principle and the 500-line limit guideline.

Issues:

Mixed Concerns: The file mixes a large number of distinct concerns:
- Data Models: ResourceSlot, ToolCapability, ToolLifecycle, Tool, and Validation.
- Enums: ToolSource, ToolType, ValidationMode, ResourceAccessMode, BindingMode, and CheckpointScope.
File Length: The file is almost 700 lines long, which makes it extremely difficult to read, understand, and maintain.

Recommendation:

Refactor the tool.py file by splitting it into smaller, more focused modules:

Move the enums to src/cleveragents/domain/models/core/enums.py.
Consider separating the Tool and Validation models into their own files (tool.py and validation.py) to improve modularity.
Group the other related models into smaller files as well.

This refactoring will improve the modularity, maintainability, and testability of the tool and validation functionality, and it will also resolve the file length issue.
