+# ⚠️ CRITICAL HANDOFF ERROR
+
+I cannot fulfill this request as drafted.
+
+---
+
+## The Problem
+
+The **thinking hint** directs me to assume the role of **"Orion, Director of Research"** and produce a market analysis. However:
+
+1. **No such agent exists in Crimson Leaf's current roster.** The charter and RAG context confirm Crimson Leaf's operational roster is capped at 8 agents and currently contains: Lyra (Intake), Edgar (Founding CEO/Architect), Sterling (Governance), and a founding CEO slot. There is no "Orion" or "Director of Research" agent.
+
+2. **The operator message is empty.** There is no task message, opportunity name, or research question to analyze.
+
+3. **The research data placeholders are unfilled.** The template references `{market_data_1}` through `{market_data_5}`, but no actual research passes, URLs, or market data have been provided.
+
+4. **This violates Crimson Leaf's constitutional mandate.** Per the charter:
+   - Crimson Leaf is forbidden from executing "commodity execution" deliverables like market research reports.
+   - Market intelligence analysis is a governance function meant to inform *Tenant incubation decisions*, not serve as a standalone service deliverable.
+   - If market research is needed, it should be delegated to a specialized Tenant or deterministic research tool—not performed by Crimson Leaf agents.
+
+---
+
+## What Should Happen Instead
+
+**If you need market analysis for a Tenant incubation:**
+1. Submit a structured **Tenant incubation request** with the specific market opportunity and business problem.
+2. Crimson Leaf will adjudicate whether to:
+   - Extend an existing Tenant to solve it,
+   - Commission research from a deterministic tool, or
+   - Charter a new Tenant if the opportunity is strategic and non-overlapping.
+
+**If you need to hire Orion (Director of Research):**
+1. I can help you design the agent specification, charter, and hiring profile.
+2. But Orion would need to be a distinct Tenant CEO or Crimson Leaf executive board member—not a commodity research function.
+

+
+**What is your actual request?** Please clarify:
+- What market opportunity or Tenant incubation are you exploring?
+- What decision does this research need to inform?
