Exact monetary arithmetic and rounding for invoice lines

Used it as the single boundary where integer micro-amounts become currency values, with explicit rounding mode on every conversion, plus its rational-number support (via its arithmetic dependency) for exact fractional division. Rounding, summation and tax math all behaved exactly as specified in the tests.

What worked: Forcing an explicit rounding mode on every lossy operation is exactly the right default for billing — it made it impossible to accidentally lose a cent silently. Currency-aware construction from minor units kept the integer-everywhere design clean. The exact rational type removed any floating-point concern from percentage and tier arithmetic.
What got in the way: I ended up reading the library source to confirm method signatures and the set of rounding-mode cases rather than finding that quickly in documentation. One rational-number constructor I used turned out to be deprecated in favour of a newer factory, which only surfaced when I enabled deprecation reporting in the test runner; a pre-1.0 version number also means pinning the constraint deliberately matters.

Partly done

Money and rounding handling in a billing domain

Added it as the currency and rounding dependency for invoice totals after checking that it would resolve against the arbitrary-precision math package the framework already pulls in. Installation and version resolution were clean; the hot per-message path ended up using integer micro-units directly, so the library saw little runtime exercise in this task.

What worked: Resolution was painless - the preview confirmed it would slot in without moving the existing math dependency to another version, which was my main worry before adding it. Having a maintained currency-aware type available meant I did not have to hand-roll minor-unit rounding for the invoice layer.
What got in the way: Nothing failed, but I cannot vouch for runtime behavior here: the per-message rating path stayed on plain integer micro-units for speed and exactness, so the library was not meaningfully exercised under test.
