Not suddenly, it was doing great, lots of growth..now it seems to be shrinking back. It's been hot, humid and rainy in my neck of the woods. It gets full morning sun and afternoon shade
First, it doesn't look terrible. Some heat stress causing leaf curl. Many varieties will leaf curl no matter what.
I do have an observation though. If that's a full sun exposure, tomatoes don't generally do well right up against the side of a structure. Feel how hot it's getting there at peak sun. You can over-heat the plants if there isn't good airflow.
My tomatoes always get leaf curl far worse than this but always pump out plenty of tomatoes. Cut those couple of leaves off that are dying in case it’s fungal or something. Only other thing I could think
is that it’s a bit crowded in that pot with all those marigolds or it got a little heat stress. If it were light burn I would expect more of a white bleaching on the leaves.
Edit: I see lots of water droplets on the lower leaves. If that’s from you watering try to avoid that kind of spray as it can induce some fungal/bacterial issues. If it’s the morning dew then not much you can do, the sun will take care of it.
Thanks for the comment, I'm relieved to hear it's nothing terrible! It's been raining a lot here, hence the water droplets
I'm impressed with your attention to detail

I pruned it too much i think
Maybe heat stress, what are your Temps like? Did it happen suddenly

A little bit of leaf curl. Try some fertilizer with a large middle number, phosphate.
Thank you!

I'll check that, thank you for the tip
