+## What I Need to Proceed
+
+As **Orion, Director of Research** at Crimson Leaf Holdings, I am ready to execute a research-grade market analysis, but I require:
+
+1. **The Opportunity Name or Description** – What market niche, business vertical, or customer segment should I analyze?
+   - Example: *"AI-powered manuscript editing for indie authors"* or *"B2B SaaS compliance auditing"*
+
+2. **Strategic Context** – Why is Crimson Leaf considering this?
+   - Is this a Tenant incubation pre-vetting?
+   - Portfolio gap analysis?
+   - Operator-initiated research request?
+
+3. **Market Data Passes** – The template references five research passes (`{market_data_1}` through `{market_data_5}`), but these are empty.
+   - Should I conduct the research myself and source real URLs?
+   - Or will market data be provided separately?
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps
+
+**Please provide:**
+- [ ] The specific market opportunity or business idea to analyze
+- [ ] Confirmation whether I should source real web data or work with provided research passes
+- [ ] Any portfolio context (existing Tenants, strategic priorities, budget constraints)
+
+Once received, I will deliver a research-grade market analysis with **8+ real cited URLs**, structured exactly per the template above, ready to inform a Tenant incubation decision.
+
+**Awaiting operator input.**
