"description": "A Strategy is the executable unit under a Campaign. It carries the budget, the schedule, the targeting object, and the creatives Vibe will deliver.\n\nA strategy has no publication state of its own. Publishing its campaign does not change the strategy's `active` state; use the `PAUSE` and `ACTIVATE` actions to toggle its delivery. A strategy can only be deleted while its campaign is still in `DRAFT`.\n\n> 💡 **Developer note**\n>\n> Replace a strategy's creative associations to swap them atomically — that endpoint replaces the full set in one call. Do not loop over per-creative attach/detach endpoints."
