⚠️ SYSTEM ALERT

Agent Role Mismatch

Current Role: Director of Research / Affiliate Intelligence (implied)

Constitutional Problem: No agent named affiliate_intelligence exists in Crimson Leaf's roster.

Current Crimson Leaf Roster (4/8):

  • Lyra Intake Coordinator
  • Edgar Founding CEO / Architect
  • Sterling Director of Talent & Governance
  • [Founding CEO role] Genesis Fund guardian

What Happened

The prompt attempted to invoke an agent role (affiliate_intelligence / "Orion, Director of Research") that has not been chartered, hired, or activated within Crimson Leaf LLC.

Per the Master Charter (§3 - Forbidden Activities):

"Crimson Leaf agents shall not execute consumer-level or client-level deliverables, including but not limited to... conducting production research... All execution must be delegated to specialized Tenants or deterministic tools."

And (§5 - The Genesis Protocol):

"No new Tenant shall be created without first passing this portfolio discipline check."


Next Steps

Option A: Create the Affiliate Intelligence Tenant

If Crimson Leaf requires an affiliate marketing research and content incubation capability, this must follow the Genesis Protocol:

  1. Need Assessment Confirm this belongs in a new Tenant vs. extending an existing one
  2. Blueprint Draft a charter for an "Affiliate Intelligence Tenant" with:
    • Primary customer (internal: Crimson Leaf + Tenants)
    • Problem solved (market research for affiliate monetization niches)
    • Forbidden activities (no execution of affiliate sites; research & brief-writing only)
    • Value thesis (enable faster go/no-go decisions for new revenue streams)
  3. Executive Seed Hire a specialized CEO (e.g., "Orion") with affiliate marketing + SEO research background
  4. Capital & Review Propose seed budget, pass adjudication at 95%+ score
  5. Activation create_company with charter, CEO agent, and repo scaffolding

Option B: Delegate to Deterministic Tools

If the request is for a one-time affiliate opportunity brief, this should be routed to:

  • External affiliate research tools (e.g., BuiltWith, SEMrush, Helium10)
  • Or requested from a future Tenant CEO once activated

Option C: Clarify the Request

What is the actual need?

  • A brief analysis of a specific niche for portfolio consideration?
  • A standing research capability to evaluate affiliate opportunities?
  • A new revenue stream Crimson Leaf should explore?

Authority Required

Only the following Crimson Leaf agents can authorize new research roles:

  • Edgar (Founding CEO / Architect)
  • Sterling (Director of Talent & Governance)

Please clarify the request or confirm authorization to charter the Affiliate Intelligence Tenant via the Genesis Protocol.
