Summary

Remove redundant runtime validation of the mode parameter in the WriteFile tool.

Problem

The WriteFile tool in src/kimi_cli/tools/file/write.py contained redundant validation code (lines 84-91) that checked whether the mode parameter was either "overwrite" or "append". This check is unnecessary because:

  1. The Pydantic Literal["overwrite", "append"] type annotation on the Params.mode field already enforces this constraint at the data validation layer
  2. Any invalid value would raise a ValidationError before reaching the tool's __call__ method
  3. The existing test suite includes test_write_with_invalid_mode which confirms this behavior

Solution

Removed the redundant validation block, reducing code complexity while maintaining the same validation guarantees through Pydantic.

Test plan

  • All existing tests pass (test_write_file.py - 13/13 passed)
  • Code formatting passes (ruff format check)
  • Linting passes (ruff check)
  • The test_write_with_invalid_mode test confirms Pydantic ValidationError is still raised for invalid modes

Changes

  • src/kimi_cli/tools/file/write.py: Removed 10 lines of redundant validation code

Remove redundant runtime validation of the `mode` parameter in the
WriteFile tool. The Pydantic `Literal["overwrite", "append"]` type
annotation already ensures that only valid values can be passed.

This change:
- Simplifies the code by removing unnecessary validation
- Maintains the same validation guarantees through Pydantic
- Is validated by existing test suite, including
  `test_write_with_invalid_mode` which confirms Pydantic
  ValidationError is raised for invalid modes
