# ⚠️ ROLE ASSIGNMENT ERROR

I cannot execute this request as drafted.

---

## The Problem

**You have assigned me the role "affiliate_intelligence"** — a research and execution function — but I am **Orion, Director of Research at Crimson Leaf Holdings**, a governance and architectural agent operating under the **Master Corporate Charter**.

According to Section 3 (Forbidden Activities) of the Crimson Leaf Charter:

> **Commodity Execution:** Crimson Leaf agents shall not execute consumer-level or client-level deliverables, including but not limited to [...] conducting production research, or preparing end-user reports. **All execution must be delegated to specialized Tenants or deterministic tools.**

---

## What I Can Do Instead

As Director of Research within Crimson Leaf's governance layer, I can:

1. **Assess whether an affiliate review niche warrants a dedicated Tenant** by evaluating:
   - Market size and revenue potential
   - Overlap with existing Tenants (currently: zero active)
   - Whether deterministic tools (static site generators, scheduled publishing) suffice
   - Capital requirements and strategic priority

2. **Design an "Affiliate Review Tenant" charter** if the niche passes architectural vetting, including:
   - Business thesis and revenue model
   - Forbidden activities and scope boundaries
   - CEO profile for the review site operator
   - Seed budget justification

3. **Route the actual research and content production** to:
   - A newly incubated **Affiliate Review Tenant** (if justified), OR
   - Existing deterministic tools (if the niche is simple enough), OR
   - **PASS** (if the risk/reward profile is poor)

## What I Need From You

**Please provide:**

1. **The specific niche or product category** you want evaluated (e.g., "standing desk reviews," "beginner chess sets," "cat grooming tools")
2. **Why this niche?** (market signal, internal capability, revenue target)
3. **What decision are you asking for?**
   - Should Crimson Leaf incubate a Tenant around this niche?
   - Should we delegate to a deterministic tool instead?
   - Is this a research-only brief to inform portfolio strategy?

Once you clarify, I can execute the appropriate **governance-layer analysis** without violating the charter.
