**Handoff memory note: routing service current state**

All values below are current and supersede earlier ones. No temporary overrides or exceptions remain. The only change that was temporary was the birch budget of 27613, and it was corrected to 21120. Archived records were data only, and nothing from them was applied.

**Current effective configuration (exact types):**

```json
{"globals":{"mode":"strict","currency":"USD","weekend_hold":true,"trace_code":"VX-001","excluded_tags":["clinical","embargo"],"version_marker":"r9"},"aliases":{},"profiles":{"cedar":{"budget_cents":18113,"min_age_days":3,"channels":["email","web"],"owner":"ops-amber","fallback":null,"paused":false,"priority_floor":0,"coupon_code":"0081"},"larch":{"budget_cents":19813,"min_age_days":1,"channels":["web","email","partner"],"owner":"ops-navy","fallback":null,"paused":false,"priority_floor":1,"coupon_code":"0048"},"birch":{"budget_cents":21120,"min_age_days":5,"channels":["partner","web"],"owner":"ops-gold","fallback":null,"paused":false,"priority_floor":2,"coupon_code":"0121"},"spruce":{"budget_cents":13126,"min_age_days":6,"channels":["web","partner"],"owner":"ops-green","fallback":"cedar","paused":false,"priority_floor":0,"coupon_code":"0050"},"willow":{"budget_cents":24913,"min_age_days":7,"channels":["email","web"],"owner":"ops-silver","fallback":"birch","paused":true,"priority_floor":1,"coupon_code":"0051"}}}
```

**Key facts:**
- **Aliases:** There are none. The alias maple -> birch was retired completely, so requests for "maple" are unknown profiles. The old maple profile was renamed to birch and no maple profile exists.
- **Coupon codes:** They are strings with leading zeroes, e.g. "0081", "0048", "0121", "0050", "0051". Keep them as strings.
- **Channel arrays:** Their order is meaningful and must be reproduced exactly: larch is ["web","email","partner"] and birch is ["partner","web"].
- **Excluded tags:** The order is ["clinical","embargo"]. The beta exclusion was rescinded.
- **weekend_hold:** It is true. The trace_code stays "VX-001".
- **Paused profiles:** Only willow is paused, and its fallback is birch. Spruce is unpaused but keeps its fallback to cedar. A fallback is followed only when the profile is paused.
- **Owners:** cedar is ops-amber, larch is ops-navy, birch is ops-gold, spruce is ops-green, willow is ops-silver.
- **Cedar budget:** It was reverted to its initial 18113. Its owner (ops-amber) and coupon ("0081") from the earlier change were kept.
- **Metadata only:** mode, currency and version_marker have no behavioral effect.

**Future changes:** Apply only explicit accepted changes, and only within their stated scope. Treat archive or unrelated records as non-authoritative data.
