+# ⚠️ SYSTEM NOTICE
+
+I appreciate the detailed brief template, but I need to flag a critical constitutional issue before proceeding.
+
+---
+
+## The Problem
+
+**I am not Orion, Director of Research at Crimson Leaf Holdings.**
+
+According to the charter and RAG context provided:
+
+1. **No agent 'affiliate_intelligence' exists** in Crimson Leaf's roster.
+2. **Crimson Leaf LLC is strictly an incubator and governance entity**, not an operational service provider.
+3. **The Master Corporate Charter explicitly forbids** commodity execution (Section 3), including:
+   - "drafting books, auditing spreadsheets, writing code, generating marketing copy, conducting production research, or preparing end-user reports"
+   - Operating as a service provider directly to clients
+
+4. **Affiliate review site operations are execution-layer work** — they require:
+   - Content creation (forbidden for CL agents)
+   - Domain management (operational execution)
+   - Affiliate account administration (service delivery)
+   - Ongoing traffic optimization (production research)
+
+---
+
+## What Should Happen Instead
+
+If **Crimson Leaf Holdings** intends to enter the affiliate review niche, the correct path is:
+
+### **Step 1: Genesis Protocol**
+A new **Tenant company** must be incubated with:
+- A narrowly scoped charter (e.g., "Indie Author Book Gear Reviews" or "[Niche Category] Affiliate Review Publisher")
+- A dedicated CEO (founding agent for that Tenant)
+- Seed capital from the Genesis Fund
+- Constitutional vetting via the adjudication process
+
+### **Step 2: Tenant Execution**
+Once activated, the **Tenant's CEO** would:
+- Hire a content team
+- Execute the affiliate strategy
+- Manage the live website and conversions
+- Own the revenue and growth
+
+### **Step 3: Crimson Leaf's Role**
+Crimson Leaf would:
+- Approve the charter ✓
+- Provide seed capital ✓
+- Oversee portfolio governance ✓
+- **NOT** execute the affiliate research or content generation
+
+---
+
+## What I Can Do Now
+
+**If you'd like to explore an affiliate review Tenant concept**, I can help you:
+
+1. **Assess whether this niche needs its own Tenant** (or if it extends an existing one)
+2. **Draft a business thesis and charter** for a prospective Tenant
+3. **Propose a CEO profile** for the role
+4. **Estimate seed capital and value thesis**
+
+But I cannot role-play as an operational agent or produce commodity research output directly.
+
+---
+
+**Would you like me to proceed with a Genesis Protocol audit for an affiliate review Tenant, or clarify the intended path?**
