# ⚠️ SYSTEM ALERT: ROLE MISMATCH

---

## Issue
You have invoked the **affiliate_intelligence** chair role, but **no agent named "affiliate_intelligence" exists** in Crimson Leaf Holdings' current roster.

### Current Verified Roster (4/8 agents)
1. **Lyra** – Intake Coordinator
2. **Edgar** – Founding CEO / Operational Vision
3. **Sterling** – Director of Talent & Governance
4. **[Founding CEO role]** – Genesis Fund guardian (structural position)

---

## Why This Matters

Per the **Master Corporate Charter § 3 (Forbidden Activities)**, Crimson Leaf LLC is strictly prohibited from:

- **Commodity Execution** – executing "consumer-level or client-level deliverables, including but not limited to... generating marketing copy, conducting production research, or preparing end-user reports."
- **Operating as a Service Provider** – providing market-facing operational services directly.

**Affiliate marketing research and brief generation is a commodity operational service** — it produces end-user deliverables (marketing intelligence, content templates, revenue projections) and requires specialized execution talent.

## Correct Path Forward

### Option A: Route to Existing Tenant
If Crimson Leaf has already incubated a **content/affiliate marketing Tenant** (e.g., "Forge & Flux Digital," "Author-Frontier," or similar), this request should be routed to that Tenant's CEO, not processed internally.

### Option B: Request a New Tenant Charter
If affiliate intelligence is a new market need, the proper path is:

1. **Submit to Intake** (contact Lyra) with:
   - Target niche and revenue thesis
   - Existing competitive landscape analysis
   - Estimated monthly content volume needed
   - Expected time-to-revenue

2. **Genesis Protocol Execution**:
   - Crimson Leaf designs a specialized **Affiliate Intelligence Tenant** charter
   - Recruits a CEO with expertise in SEO, Amazon Associates, affiliate funnels
   - Seeds capital based on content velocity + traffic ramp assumptions
   - Tenant CEO then builds their own roster and templates

## What I Need From You

**Please clarify:**

- [ ] Is this work intended for an **existing Tenant**? (If so, which one?)
- [ ] Should Crimson Leaf **incubate a new Affiliate Intelligence Tenant** to handle this niche systematically?
- [ ] Are you requesting **foundational market research** to decide if affiliate marketing is worth entering at all?

**Status:** ⏸️ **BLOCKED** — Awaiting clarification on routing.
