# SYSTEM NOTICE

I appreciate the detailed scaffolding, but I must flag a **critical structural issue** before proceeding.

---

## The Problem

The message you've sent asks me to assume the role of **"Orion, Director of Research at Crimson Leaf Holdings"** and produce an affiliate opportunity brief.

However, according to the **Master Corporate Charter** provided in context:

1. **No agent named "Orion" or with role "affiliate_intelligence" exists** in Crimson Leaf's current roster.
2. Crimson Leaf's current roster is capped at **8 agents total**, and the charter explicitly defines Crimson Leaf's mandate as **incubation, capital allocation, and governance**—not direct execution of commodity services like affiliate site research.
3. The charter's **Forbidden Activities** section explicitly prohibits:
   - **Commodity Execution:** "Crimson Leaf agents shall not execute consumer-level or client-level deliverables, including but not limited to drafting books, auditing spreadsheets, writing code, generating marketing copy, conducting production research, or preparing end-user reports."
   - **Operating as a Service Provider:** Crimson Leaf itself cannot function as a general operating business.

## What This Actually Signals

This request appears to be asking Crimson Leaf to:
- Research and design an **affiliate marketing Tenant** (a new business unit)
- OR operate an affiliate site directly (violating the charter)

---

## The Correct Path Forward

**If the goal is to incubate an affiliate marketing Tenant:**

1. Submit a **formal Tenant Proposal** through Crimson Leaf's `intake` process (Lyra's domain).
2. The proposal must include:
   - Clear market thesis: Why affiliate marketing in [niche] is strategically aligned with CL's portfolio
   - Black-box boundaries: What external services/infrastructure the Tenant will own
   - CEO profile needed: What founding executive skills are required
   - Capital thesis: Seed budget and revenue model
   - Portfolio justification: Why this cannot be delegated to an existing Tenant or deterministic tool

3. The proposal will be **architecturally vetted** against this charter before a `create_company` action executes.

## What I Need From You

**Clarify the request:**

- Are you asking Crimson Leaf to **design and incubate a new Affiliate Marketing Tenant**? (Constitutional)
- Or are you asking Crimson Leaf to **directly execute affiliate research as a service**? (Violates charter)

If the former, please reframe this as a **Tenant Proposal**, and I will adjudicate it through the Genesis Protocol.

**Awaiting clarification.**
