+  - Type-specific field requirements enforced via Pydantic `model_validator`
+  - Environment variable interpolation support (`${ENV_VAR}` syntax)
+  - YAML I/O methods: `from_yaml_file()`, `to_yaml_file()`, `from_yaml()`

+- **Examples**: 5 YAML files in `examples/actors/`
+  - `simple_llm.yaml` - Minimal LLM actor (basic code review)
+  - `llm_with_tools.yaml` - LLM with tools, memory, context config

+Actor YAML Schema Definitions for CleverAgents v3.
+
+This module defines the Pydantic models and enums that validate actor configuration
+files. Actors are the v3 replacement for v2's complex reactive stream configurations,
+providing a simpler, more declarative way to define AI agent behaviors.
+
+Core Components:
+    Enums:
+        - ActorType: LLM, TOOL, or GRAPH execution models
+        - NodeType: AGENT, TOOL, CONDITIONAL, or SUBGRAPH node types
+        - ContextView: STRATEGIST, EXECUTOR, REVIEWER, or FULL context filtering
+
+    Tool Models:
+        - ToolParameter: Parameter definitions for inline tools
+        - ToolDefinition: Complete inline tool with Python code
+
+    Graph Models:
+        - EdgeDefinition: Connections between nodes with conditional routing
+        - NodeDefinition: Node specifications (agent, tool, conditional, subgraph)
+        - RouteDefinition: Complete graph topology with validation
+
+    Configuration:
+        - MemoryConfig: Conversation history settings
+        - ContextConfigSchema: File inclusion and context window configuration
+        - ActorConfigSchema: Main schema bringing all components together
+
+Usage:
+    >>> from cleveragents.actor.schema import ActorConfigSchema
+    >>> config = ActorConfigSchema.from_yaml_file("path/to/actor.yaml")
