# ⚠️ INCOMPLETE REQUEST

I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, but I cannot execute this task as specified.

## Why This Cannot Proceed:

**1. No Task Message Provided**
The `*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***` section is empty. There is no opportunity name, market niche, or research brief for me to analyze. I have no data about what Crimson Leaf should investigate.

**2. No Research Passes Populated**
The template references five research passes:
- `{market_data_1}` — Market Size and TAM
- `{market_data_2}` — Competitive Landscape
- `{market_data_3}` — News and Developments
- `{market_data_4}` — Community Voice and Pain Points
- `{market_data_5}` — Revenue Models

All five are **empty placeholders**. Without real web data from these passes, I cannot generate citations, validate claims, or produce a research-grade analysis. Per my citation rules, I must cite only real URLs found in the passes—not invent them.

## What I Need to Proceed:

**From the Operator:**
1. **Opportunity Statement**: What market niche, business model, or technology area should Crimson Leaf investigate?
   - Example: *"Analyze the market for AI-powered manuscript formatting for indie authors."*

2. **Research Passes**: Provide populated research data across the five dimensions (TAM, competitors, news, community, monetization).
   - These should contain real web URLs, statistics, competitor pricing, and recent articles.

**Example format for one pass:**
```
=== PASS 2: COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE ===
- Vellum: $199 one-time, targets indie authors, focuses on ebook + print formatting
  [Vellum Pricing](https://www.vellumapp.com/pricing)
- Draft2Digital: Free tier + $99/year premium, competitor analysis from r/selfpublishing
  [Draft2Digital Features](https://www.draft2digital.com)
```

## Standing By

Once you provide:
- **The market opportunity** (what to research), and
- **The five research passes** (real data with URLs),

I will produce a **research-grade market analysis** with proper citations, competitive mapping, TAM sizing, and a clear **PROCEED / INVESTIGATE / PASS** recommendation for the Crimson Leaf Genesis board.

**What opportunity should I research?**
