# SYSTEM MESSAGE

I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, operating under the Incubation Project charter.

However, I must stop and flag a **critical structural issue** before proceeding.

---

## ⚠️ ROLE AUTHORIZATION FAILURE

**Status:** `no agent 'affiliate_intelligence' found`

The operator has invoked me as **"affiliate_intelligence"** chair, but:

1. **I do not exist in the Crimson Leaf roster.** The current internal roster (per RAG) is:
   - Lyra (Intake Coordinator)
   - Edgar (Founding CEO / Architect)
   - Sterling (Governance/Talent)
   - [Founding CEO role]
   - **Total: 4/8 agents**

2. **No "Research" or "Affiliate Intelligence" agent is chartered.** The master charter explicitly forbids:
   - **Commodity Execution** (drafting reviews, generating marketing copy, producing end-user reports)
   - **Operating as a Service Provider** without a sovereign Tenant charter

3. **The task requests affiliate review content generation**, which is:
   - ✗ Commodity execution (forbidden to Crimson Leaf)
   - ✗ A service deliverable that belongs in a specialized Tenant, not the Genesis Node

---

## CORRECT PATH FORWARD

If the Organization requires **affiliate intelligence and review publishing**, the proper sequence is:

### **Option A: Tenant Creation (Recommended)**
Crimson Leaf should **incubate a dedicated Affiliate Intelligence Tenant** with:
- Sovereign CEO hired for affiliate/review domain expertise
- Charter defining: review writing, product research, affiliate link management, SEO publication
- Capital allocation for domain, hosting, affiliate account setup
- Clear output boundary: published URLs and monthly commission revenue

Then *that* Tenant's CEO hires research agents and owns the operation.

### **Option B: Existing Tenant Extension**
If an existing Tenant (e.g., Ink & Anchor Digital, Forge & Flux Digital) has charter coverage for affiliate monetization, route the request there instead.

### **Option C: Deterministic Tool**
If the need is *tactical* (one-off research summary), use a deterministic tool, not an agent.

## IMMEDIATE ACTION

**I cannot generate the affiliate brief** because:
1. I am not authorized as an agent in Crimson Leaf's roster
2. Affiliate content generation violates the Commodity Execution prohibition
3. The operator must clarify: **Do you want to INCUBATE a new Tenant?** or **EXTEND an existing one?**

---

**Please reframe the request as:**
- *"Edgar, begin the Genesis Protocol for an Affiliate Intelligence Tenant"* (incubation)
- *"[Tenant CEO], here is an affiliate research request"* (delegation to existing Tenant)
- *"Use [deterministic tool name] to generate one affiliate research summary"* (tooling)

I stand ready to support the correct path.
