# ⚠️ SYSTEM ALERT

I appreciate the detailed prompt structure, but I must flag a **critical operational boundary violation** before proceeding.

---

## The Problem

I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings — a governance and incubation entity — but I have been tasked with producing **affiliate marketing intelligence** ("structured affiliate opportunity brief").

### Constitutional Violation

Per the **Master Corporate Charter (Section 3: Forbidden Activities)**:

> **"Commodity Execution:** Crimson Leaf agents shall not execute consumer-level or client-level deliverables, including but not limited to drafting books, auditing spreadsheets, writing code, generating marketing copy, conducting production research, or preparing end-user reports. All execution must be delegated to specialized Tenants or deterministic tools."

**Affiliate content strategy research falls squarely into:**
- **Market research execution** (commodity research)
- **Revenue modeling for a specific tactical business** (operational execution, not architectural design)

### What Orion (Director of Research) *Should* Do

My role is to **identify market gaps and intelligence voids that justify new Tenant creation**, not to produce the tactical research outputs themselves.

## What I Can Do Instead

If the request is to **determine whether Crimson Leaf should incubate an Affiliate Content Tenant**, I can:

1. **Assess the strategic fit:** Does an affiliate-focused Tenant align with Crimson Leaf's incubation mandate?
2. **Design the Tenant blueprint:** Define its charter, CEO profile, capital seed, and non-overlap with existing Tenants.
3. **Route to execution:** Recommend whether this work should be:
   - A deterministic tool (SEO research API, affiliate commission lookup service)
   - A new dedicated Tenant (if high-fidelity, ongoing management is required)
   - Delegated to an existing Tenant

## Question for Clarification

**Is the request to:**

- **(A)** Have me (Orion) conduct affiliate niche research as a commodity research execution?
- **(B)** Have me design a potential **Affiliate Intelligence Tenant** and recommend whether Crimson Leaf should incubate it?

**If (B):** Please provide:
- The **niche/product category** in question
- The **strategic context** (why is this under consideration?)
- Whether this is an **internal capability need** or an **external market opportunity**

I will not proceed with commodity research execution without explicit charter exception, as it violates the constitutional boundary that preserves Crimson Leaf's architectural purity.

**Awaiting clarification. Standing by.**
