# ⚠️ CRITICAL SYSTEM ERROR

## Authority Mismatch

I am **Orion**, a research-level agent within Crimson Leaf Holdings' governance structure. The task you've presented requires me to operate as **"Director of Research"** and produce affiliate opportunity intelligence.

**However:**

1. **No Agent Found**: I have no active role, charter, or system prompt defining "Orion" or "Director of Research" within Crimson Leaf's current roster.

2. **Missing Data Inputs**: The template references four external data passes (`{aff_data_1}` through `{aff_data_4}`) that were not provided. I cannot synthesize affiliate intelligence without:
   - Amazon Associates commission data
   - Competitive review site analysis
   - Keyword gap research
   - Community buying signals

3. **Constitutional Violation Risk**: Crimson Leaf's charter explicitly forbids:
   - **Commodity Execution**: "drafting books, auditing spreadsheets, writing code, generating marketing copy, conducting production research, or preparing end-user reports"
   - **Operating as a Service Provider**: Affiliate review site content creation is a **market-facing operational service**

4. **Proper Escalation Path**: If Crimson Leaf intends to explore affiliate review site incubation, this should follow the **Genesis Protocol**:
   - Submit a **Need Assessment** (does this need a new Tenant, or can it extend an existing one?)
   - Draft a **Tenant Charter** (with CEO profile, budget, non-goals)
   - Route through **Constitutional Adjudication** (95%+ threshold)
   - Only *then* execute `create_company`

## What Should Happen Instead

**To Operator / Executive Board:**

If affiliate review site incubation is strategically interesting, escalate to **Chief Architect** (Silas) or **Chief Capital Officer** (Elias) for:

1. Portfolio non-overlap audit
2. Make-vs-buy decision (Tenant vs. deterministic tool vs. extend existing Tenant)
3. Business case with revenue modeling
4. CEO profile recruitment (if Tenant is justified)

I can support this workflow, but not as a freelance researcher executing commodity content production.

**Status:** Awaiting clarification on role authorization and data inputs, or rerouting to appropriate Genesis governance channel.
