# HALT — CRITICAL INPUT MISSING

Orion cannot proceed with the business plan request.

## What I Need

The **CURRENT MESSAGE** section contains:

```
Operator: 
Message: 
```

**Both fields are empty.** There is no opportunity description, no market problem statement, no customer definition, and no strategic context for the business plan.

Additionally, the research data placeholders are unfilled:

- `{biz_data_1}` — Business Model Examples (missing)
- `{biz_data_2}` — Go-to-Market Channel Research (missing)
- `{biz_data_3}` — Risk and Failure Research (missing)

---

## What You Must Provide

To generate an investor-grade business plan, please supply:

1. **The Opportunity Statement** (in the Message field above):
   - What specific business or market niche should this plan address?
   - Who is the target customer?
   - What problem are we solving?
   - Example: *"AI-powered manuscript formatting for self-published authors seeking print-ready PDFs compatible with KDP and IngramSpark."*

2. **Market Research Data** (fill `{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, `{biz_data_3}`):
   - Business model benchmarks (pricing, unit economics, comparable SaaS models)
   - GTM channel strategies (affiliate partnerships, SEO, content, paid ads, community)
   - Risk case studies (what has failed in similar verticals, and why)

3. **Strategic Context** (optional but helpful):
   - Why is Crimson Leaf incubating this *now*?
   - Is this filling a portfolio gap, or extending an existing Tenant?
   - What is the founding CEO profile we should recruit for?

## Next Step

Once received, I will produce a complete, cited, investor-grade business plan targeting David's funding decision gate.
