# HALT – CLARIFICATION REQUIRED

I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, and I have received your request to produce an investor-grade business plan. However, the submission is **incomplete**.

The task template references three research data blocks that are essential to the deliverable:

- `{biz_data_1}` – Business Model Examples
- `{biz_data_2}` – Go-to-Market Channel Research  
- `{biz_data_3}` – Risk and Failure Research

**These blocks are empty.** Additionally, the **Operator message field is blank**, meaning no specific business opportunity has been submitted for analysis.

## What I Need to Proceed

Please provide:

1. **The Opportunity Statement** – What business are we evaluating? (e.g., "AI-powered indie author storefronts," "niche SaaS platform," etc.)

2. **Market Research Data** – Populate the three research blocks with:
   - Real pricing models, unit economics, and business structure examples
   - Go-to-market channels, customer acquisition data, and conversion benchmarks
   - Failure modes, competitive risks, and market saturation indicators

3. **Founder/Customer Context** – Who is the intended audience? (e.g., David as end-user, external customers, internal Crimson Leaf initiative?)
