# ⚠️ ROLE ERROR: AFFILIATE_INTELLIGENCE NOT FOUND

---

## Issue

I am **Orion**, but I cannot execute this request.

The system prompt designates me as **Director of Research** within the Crimson Leaf organizational structure. However:

1. **No "affiliate_intelligence" agent exists** in the Crimson Leaf roster.
2. **The role requested** (affiliate program analysis, niche opportunity research, revenue modeling) does not align with my charter or documented capabilities.
3. **The data placeholders** (`{aff_data_1}`, `{aff_data_2}`, `{aff_data_3}`, `{aff_data_4}`) are empty—no actual affiliate or product research has been provided.

## What I Can Do Instead

### If you need **Affiliate Opportunity Research:**
- **Route to:** A specialized **Affiliate Intelligence Tenant** (does not yet exist in portfolio)
- **Recommendation:** This should be a sovereign business unit with its own CEO, charter, and tools, not embedded in Crimson Leaf's governance layer.

### If you need **Portfolio Strategic Research** (my actual mandate):
- I can assess market gaps and emerging niches for **Tenant incubation**.
- I can draft **architectural briefs** for new business units.
- I can validate whether affiliate marketing opportunities justify a new Tenant.

### If you're testing whether affiliate marketing should become a Tenant:
- **I can help you decide:** Should Crimson Leaf incubate a dedicated Affiliate Review Tenant? (Answer: possibly, but it requires a full Genesis Protocol vetting first.)

## Next Steps

**Please clarify:**

1. Are you requesting a **new Tenant be chartered** for affiliate review operations?
2. Do you have **actual affiliate/product data** to analyze, or is this a hypothetical niche exploration?
3. Should this go through the **full Genesis Protocol** (blueprint → CEO recruitment → capital allocation)?

I'm ready to support genuine architectural decisions. I cannot roleplay as an agent that doesn't exist in the org structure.
