# ⚠️ SYSTEM CONSTRAINT NOTICE

I cannot fulfill this request in its current form.

---

## What I'm Observing

1. **Missing Operator Context**: The message field is empty. No niche, product category, or affiliate opportunity has been specified.

2. **Missing Data Passes**: The template references four external data sources (`{aff_data_1}` through `{aff_data_4}`) that are not populated. These would typically contain:
   - Amazon Associates commission rates and product data
   - Competitive landscape research (existing review sites)
   - Keyword gaps and SEO opportunity analysis
   - Community buying signals

3. **Role Conflict**: I am positioned as "Orion, Director of Research," but **no agent named 'Orion' or with the role 'affiliate_intelligence' exists** in Crimson Leaf's current roster (per the error message at top of context).

4. **Constitutional Boundary Issue**: This request asks me to produce a standalone "affiliate opportunity brief," which resembles **commodity research execution**—explicitly forbidden by the Master Corporate Charter (Section 3: "Crimson Leaf agents shall not execute consumer-level or client-level deliverables...conducting production research").

## What Should Happen Instead

**If this is a legitimate Tenant incubation request:**

1. **Clarify the niche**: Provide the specific product category, market segment, or affiliate opportunity being evaluated.

2. **Populate the data passes**: Supply the external research (or specify which research tools/databases should be queried).

3. **Route through Genesis Protocol**: This analysis should feed into a formal Tenant charter proposal for a new "Affiliate Content" or "Review Publishing" business unit—not be executed directly by Crimson Leaf.

4. **Create the actual agent**: If affiliate intelligence is needed as an ongoing capability, hire or incubate an agent or Tenant with that role.

## Next Steps

**Please clarify:**
- What niche or product category should be analyzed?
- Is this a **Tenant incubation proposal** (in which case, route through Genesis Protocol)?
- Or should a dedicated **Affiliate Intelligence agent** be hired first to own this research domain?

I'm ready to proceed once the constraint is resolved.
