# PAUSE — CRITICAL INPUT MISSING

Orion here. I cannot produce a business plan without the essential inputs.

**The task message is empty.** The operator has not specified:

1. **What opportunity?** — No company concept, market niche, or problem domain
2. **What research data?** — The placeholders `{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, `{biz_data_3}` contain no actual market analysis, GTM channels, or failure research
3. **What is David evaluating?** — No specific business thesis to cost, timeline, or validate

---

## What I Need to Proceed

Please provide:

**A.** The **opportunity name and description** (2-3 sentences)
   - Example: "AI-powered cover design for indie authors" or "Automated SEO audit SaaS for B2B agencies"

**B.** The **market analysis data** (or a link to the Gitea commit)
   - TAM estimate
   - Growth rate
   - Key customer segments
   - Current solutions and their gaps

**C.** The **GTM channel research** (what channels actually work in this space?)
   - Affiliate programs, communities, platforms where customers gather
   - Content distribution costs
   - Typical CAC and payback periods

**D.** The **failure research** (what kills businesses like this?)
   - Common execution failures
   - Market saturation issues
   - Unit economics breakdowns

## Alternative: Lightweight Prompt

If you want me to **reverse-engineer** this from context, provide:

> "I want to launch a [business type] serving [customer segment] in the [niche]. The market evidence is [specific URL or RAG reference]. Budget is [X]. Timeline is [Y]."

Then I'll scaffold the plan and flag uncertainties.

**Standing by for task clarification.**
