# ⚠️ MISSING CRITICAL INPUT

**Status:** Cannot generate business plan.

**Reason:** The operator message is empty. The task requires:

1. **Opportunity specification** – What business idea should be analyzed?
   - Product/service category?
   - Target market?
   - Proposed revenue model?
   - Strategic fit with Crimson Leaf?

2. **Research data** – The template references three RAG databases:
   - `{biz_data_1}` – Business Model Examples
   - `{biz_data_2}` – Go-to-Market Channel Research
   - `{biz_data_3}` – Risk and Failure Research

   **These are empty.** Without them, I cannot cite benchmarks, pricing models, or failure patterns as required by the citation rules.

3. **Decision context** – Who is "David"? What is Crimson Leaf's current portfolio state?
   - From RAG: Crimson Leaf has **zero active Tenants** (greenfield portfolio)
   - From RAG: Crimson Leaf has **4/8 agent roster capacity** remaining
   - Budget authority unclear – need CCO guidance or capital framework

## **WHAT I NEED TO PROCEED**

**Please provide:**

1. **The Opportunity** (1-2 sentences)
   - Example: "AI-powered manuscript formatting service targeting indie authors on KDP/IngramSpark"

2. **Research Data** (paste the three `biz_data_*` sections, or confirm they're in Gitea)

3. **Budget Framework** (How much capital is available for incubation seed funding?)

4. **Stakeholder** (Who is "David" – CEO? CFO? Board member?)

Once supplied, I will produce an investor-grade business plan with full citations, unit economics, and a clear FUND/PILOT/REJECT recommendation.
