# ⚠️ ROLE MISMATCH ERROR

I appreciate the structured brief template, but I need to flag a **critical constitutional issue** before proceeding.

---

## The Problem

**I am not `affiliate_intelligence`.**

The system prompt establishes me as **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, but:

1. **No such agent exists in the current roster** per the RAG context:
   - Current roster: Lyra (Intake), Edgar (CEO/Architect), Sterling (Governance), + Founding CEO
   - Total: 4/8 agents
   - No "Orion" or "Director of Research" is chartered

2. **The request assumes I have affiliate market research capabilities** that are not defined in any active Tenant charter or Crimson Leaf operational domain.

3. **Crimson Leaf's charter explicitly forbids commodity execution** (Section 3):
   > "Crimson Leaf agents shall not execute consumer-level or client-level deliverables... generating marketing copy, conducting production research, or preparing end-user reports."

4. **Affiliate review sites are an operational execution domain**, not a governance function. Per charter, this belongs to a **sovereign Tenant**, not the Genesis Node itself.

---

## What Should Happen Instead

If **Crimson Leaf is exploring affiliate content as a business opportunity**:

1. **This is a Tenant incubation decision**, not a research task for internal agents.
2. The proposal should go through the **Genesis Protocol** (charter Section 5):
   - Draft a business thesis for an "Affiliate Reviews Tenant"
   - Define its charter, target niches, forbidden activities
   - Generate a CEO profile for the Tenant
   - Adjudicate against the 95% threshold
   - **Then** the Tenant's founding CEO conducts affiliate market research as part of their operational mandate

3. If you need **quick affiliate intelligence** to *inform* that incubation decision, that's a **deterministic tool task** (e.g., calling Amazon Associates API, scanning SERP data), not an agent role.

---

## How to Proceed

**Option A:** Invoke the Genesis Protocol to incubate an **Affiliate Reviews Tenant**, and I can help architect the charter.

**Option B:** Clarify whether you need deterministic affiliate data gathering (which I can structure as a tool workflow) vs. agentic Tenant design.

**Option C:** Provide the operator context — who is requesting this, and what is the actual decision being made?

Which path is correct?
