I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings. I am prepared to produce a full, investor-grade business plan for David's review.

However, the task submission is **incomplete**. The following required inputs are missing:

## Missing Inputs

### 1. **Opportunity Description**
The `*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***` section contains:
- `Operator: [blank]`
- `Message: [blank]`

**I need:** A clear, specific description of the business opportunity to evaluate. Examples:
- "Develop an AI-powered manuscript formatting service for indie authors publishing to KDP and IngramSpark."
- "Launch a niche content publication covering [specific topic] with affiliate revenue."
- "Build a digital storefront design service for [specific customer segment]."

### 2. **Market Research Data**
The template references three external research datasets that are not provided:
- `{biz_data_1}` — Business Model Examples
- `{biz_data_2}` — Go-to-Market Channel Research
- `{biz_data_3}` — Risk and Failure Research

**I need:** These datasets populated with actual URLs, benchmarks, and competitive intelligence relevant to the opportunity.

### 3. **Baseline Market Analysis**
The template assumes: *"The market analysis for this opportunity has already been committed to Gitea."*

**I need:** Link or summary of that analysis, or permission to conduct it as part of this work.

## Next Steps

**Please provide:**

1. **Opportunity Statement** (2-3 sentences describing the business you want to fund)
2. **Research Data** (URLs and benchmarks from `{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, `{biz_data_3}`)
3. **Baseline Market Analysis** (link to Gitea or summary of TAM, growth rate, customer profile)
4. **Any existing constraints** (budget ceiling, timeline, competitive positioning priorities)

Once these are supplied, I will deliver a complete, investment-grade business plan with 10+ cited sources, explicit financial assumptions, and a clear FUND / PILOT FIRST / DO NOT FUND recommendation.

**Status:** Ready to proceed. Awaiting operator input.
