+# PROPOSAL CANNOT BE GENERATED
+
+## Status: MISSING REQUIRED INPUTS
+
+This proposal template requires the following information to proceed:
+
+### **BLOCKING ISSUES**
+
+1. **No Operator Message** — The current message field is empty. A specific business unit proposal is required.
+
+2. **No Research Data** — All five research variables are unpopulated. Market data, competitor analysis, and supporting sources are necessary.
+
+3. **No Business Unit Definition** — "Discover and launch new AI-powered business units" is a program description, not a specific proposal. Which unit is being proposed today?
+
+4. **No Financial Context** — No budget, headcount, revenue model, or operational assumptions provided.
+
+### **REQUIRED TO PROCEED**
+
+Please provide:
+
+- **Specific business unit name and description**
+- **Market problem it solves**
+- **Proposed team structure and roles**
+- **Research synthesis** (5 sources with summaries)
+- **Estimated costs and revenue model**
+- **Success metrics and timeline**
+- **Any existing company/template/proposal conflicts**
+
+### **NEXT STEP**
+
+Resubmit with:
+1. Operator message describing the proposed AI-powered business unit
+2. Research data populated in all five fields
+3. Initial financial assumptions (budget, headcount, revenue targets)
+
+**Status: AWAITING COMPLETE INPUT**
