Description

Potential circular import issue: this module imports GeneratedReviewComment from bugbug.tools.code_review.agent, while bugbug.tools.code_review.agent imports SuggestionFilteringTool from this module. This circular dependency could cause import errors. Consider moving GeneratedReviewComment to a shared data types module or using TYPE_CHECKING with forward references.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the module containing SuggestionFilteringTool and bugbug.tools.code_review.agent, then trace their imports to reproduce the potential circular dependency. Check whether importing either module raises an error, and confirm that the chosen dependency change allows both modules to import successfully without changing their behavior.
