I would suggest that you don't need to use Node and VM in the Cluster

to pass in Node and VM objects, but it is their responsibility to make
sure that Node and VM are loaded.
That won't work smoothly if the Cluster class offers convenience
methods which generate Node and VM objects. In that case you should
put requires inside of those convenience methods. That way you
guarantee that those classes exist when you need them, and break the
circular dependencies while loading.
That sounds doable. The functionality in the Cluster class dealing
with Node and Vm objects is small, so additional requires inside
the relevant methods are a good compromise.
thanks,
Daniel
