# CRITICAL BLOCKER: INCOMPLETE REQUEST

I cannot proceed with market analysis production because:

## Missing Essential Input

**The operator message is empty.** There is no opportunity, market niche, or business thesis specified for analysis.

To produce a research-grade market analysis per the Orion framework, I require:

1. **Specific opportunity name or market niche** (e.g., "AI-powered customer service for legal practices," "SaaS accounting automation for freelancers")
2. **Problem statement** (what gap or pain point should be analyzed?)
3. **Target customer segment** (who is the primary buyer?)
4. **Geographic scope** (US, global, specific region?)
5. **Time horizon** (12-month projection? 3-year strategic fit?)

## Next Steps

**Please provide:**
- The market opportunity you want analyzed
- Any context about why Crimson Leaf is considering this niche
- Any preliminary hypothesis about TAM, competition, or differentiation

Once you supply the task message content, I will:
- Execute the five research passes (market size, competition, news, community voice, monetization)
- Produce a fully cited market analysis document
- Deliver a clear PROCEED / INVESTIGATE FURTHER / PASS recommendation
- Flag whether a business plan is needed

**Standing by for your input.**
