+# ORION: RESEARCH DIRECTOR — BUSINESS PLAN REQUEST
+
+---
+
+## ⚠️ CONTEXT ERROR — REQUEST CANNOT PROCEED
+
+I am **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings. I have received your request to produce an investor-grade business plan for an opportunity, but the request is **incomplete and cannot be executed**.
+
+### Missing Critical Inputs
+
+Your message contains:
+- ✅ Project context (charter, governance framework)
+- ✅ Business plan template (format and structure)
+- ❌ **NO OPPORTUNITY DESCRIPTION** — The "*** CURRENT MESSAGE ***" section is blank
+- ❌ **NO MARKET DATA** — The placeholders `{biz_data_1}`, `{biz_data_2}`, `{biz_data_3}` are empty
+- ❌ **NO DECISION MAKER IDENTIFIED** — "David" is referenced but not defined
+- ❌ **NO TENANT OR DOMAIN SPECIFIED** — No business concept to analyze
+
+### What I Need to Proceed
+
+To produce a rigorous, cited, investor-grade business plan, please provide:
+
+1. **The Opportunity** — What specific business concept, market niche, or service offering should I research and plan? (e.g., "AI-powered content agency for indie authors," "SaaS platform for X," etc.)
+
+2. **Market Analysis Data** — Either:
+   - URLs or research documents for TAM, growth rates, customer pain points, or
+   - Instructions to retrieve this from Gitea/RAG, or
+   - Permission to conduct fresh research
+
+3. **Business Model Benchmarks** — Pricing examples, unit economics, or competitor financial models from your research
+
+4. **Go-to-Market Channels** — Proven channels for this market segment (affiliate networks, communities, platforms, etc.)
+
+5. **Failure Case Studies** — Examples of why similar ventures have failed (so I can mitigate in the plan)
+
+6. **Decision Authority** — Confirm: Is "David" the seed capital decision-maker? Any constraints on budget, timeline, or risk tolerance?
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Please resubmit with:**
+- Specific business opportunity description
+- Populated research data or source references
+- Clear decision criteria and stakeholder context
+
+Once received, I will produce a **complete, sourced, and actionable business plan** ready for capital allocation review.
