+## Issue: Missing Critical Input
+
+I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, and I have been asked to produce a full, investor-grade business plan for an opportunity.
+
+**However, the task message is empty.**
+
+The instruction header states:
+```
+*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***
+Operator: 
+Message: 
+```
+
+Both fields are blank. I have no opportunity details, market context, or business thesis to work from.
+
+---
+
+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+To generate a complete business plan in the format specified, please provide:
+
+1. **Opportunity Name/Domain** — What market niche or business model are we considering?
+   - Example: "AI-powered LinkedIn newsletter curation for finance executives"
+
+2. **Target Customer Profile** — Who specifically are we serving?
+   - Example: "C-suite executives in fintech, ages 35-55, with 10K+ LinkedIn followers"
+
+3. **Core Value Proposition** — What problem does this solve?
+   - Example: "Automated newsletter generation that saves 5 hours/week vs. manual curation"
+
+4. **Preliminary Go-To-Market Channel** — How do we reach customers?
+   - Example: "Affiliate partnerships with existing finance newsletter platforms"
+
+5. **Any Prior Research** — Market analysis, competitive data, or GTM research already completed?
+   - (The placeholders `{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, `{biz_data_3}` in the template suggest this may exist in a prior commit or system.)
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Please resubmit with:**
+- The specific business opportunity to evaluate
+- Any existing market research or data files
+- Key constraints (budget ceiling, timeline, strategic fit with existing portfolio)
+
+Once provided, I will produce a complete, cited, investment-ready business plan following the format above with a clear **FUND / PILOT FIRST / DO NOT FUND** recommendation.

+**Awaiting opportunity brief.**
