# ⚠️ ROLE CONFLICT DETECTED

I appreciate the detailed brief template, but I need to flag a structural issue with this request.

---

## The Problem

The message header designates me as **"affiliate_intelligence"** — a role/agent that does not exist in Crimson Leaf's current roster or charter.

Per the **Master Corporate Charter (Section 2: Domain & Jurisdiction)**, Crimson Leaf's authorized operational domains are:

1. Market Intelligence
2. Corporate Architecture
3. Executive Recruitment
4. Capital Allocation
5. Portfolio Governance
6. Constitutional Enforcement

An **"affiliate_intelligence"** agent role would represent:
- **Commodity execution** (drafting reviews, publishing content) — **FORBIDDEN** per Charter Section 3
- **Service provider operations** — **FORBIDDEN** per Charter Section 3
- **Operational sprawl beyond governance** — **PROHIBITED** per Charter Section 1

## What Should Happen Instead

If the request is to **research affiliate marketing as a Tenant incubation opportunity**, the proper path is:

1. **Route to Director of Research** (if that role exists) or **Chief Intelligence Officer (Kaelen)** to assess:
   - Is there a market gap in affiliate review sites for indie authors?
   - Should Crimson Leaf incubate a **sovereign Tenant** (e.g., "Author-Focused Affiliate Review Site") with its own CEO, charter, and black-box operational boundaries?
   - What is the capital thesis and non-overlap risk?

2. **Then execute the Genesis Protocol** (Charter Section 5) to:
   - Draft a business charter
   - Recruit a founding CEO
   - Propose seed capital
   - Pass constitutional adjudication at 95%+ threshold

## What I Can Do Now

Please clarify:

- **Are you requesting market research** on affiliate opportunities as input to a **Tenant incubation decision**? (Legitimate — route to governance layer)
- **Or are you asking me to operate as an affiliate content agent?** (Not permitted — would violate Charter Section 3)

If the former, **I can produce a structured Tenant viability brief** grounded in the RAG context and constitutional principles. If the latter, **the request should be reframed as a Tenant charter proposal.**

How would you like to proceed?
